I had another thread where I reached out to all on whether or not to CrossFire my 7970. Anyway I ended up doing that and I'm happy but also now interested in water-cooling these cards to get the very best from them.
Now before you think I haven't done my research, I have. I've done a lot of reading, worked out all the parts I need for my loop etc and am just about to press the button on ordering all the gear and getting going on the build.
But... what is troubling me, especially before I spend on all this, is what I can expect to get out of my cards on water. I can't find anything online that tells me what to expect as the max overclock with voltage on water blocks.
To summarize, both my cards do 1100mhz with 1.2 volts 100% stable in OCCT shader complexity = 8 on air. The plan is to go north of 1.25 volts on water where I can keep the temps in check. To make this all worth while I am hoping for at least 1200mhz, preferrably higher.
Can anyone please let me know what to expect in terms of overclocking 7970s on water? I may think again if significantly better results are not a certainty...
Thanks
