Finally got time to get the classy cold!was just working on the core, will try mem tomorrow... SVl7, did you had time to figure out how to get 1.6v on the classy? I was able to set 1711 core but ran out of voltage! had to lower to 1698 to get the run to pass. Anyway your bios is simply awesome! I just need to find a way to get a little more v....

didn't build it myself, got it build by sdumper, it need to be retuned, in the good days it was maintaining a gulftown at about -35c...

put a big arse fan in front of the gpu... not bad for air cooling!

but that 0.1 volt more can make a 1750 overclock become a 1800... I'll take that in a heartbeat:Banane17:

didn't try Valley yet, will sure do tho! I didn't have to go up tp 1.35v to hit those clocks, 1.3125 was enough.

Have someone here managed to bench on 1400mhz on the gpu with 780 Classified?

yep!

got it up to 1415 but had to lower them mem to around 1650.

The LN2 mod has an ever higher limit, but of course I can't test whether it's high enough. Maybe I should crank it up a bit to be sure.

That would be awesome! I can test for you if you want, refilling the 160 liters tank on Friday! (maybe you can make it a BIG bit!)

The reason I'm asking is for LN2 purpose. The evbot go to 1.5v so that's where it's going to be! I just want to make sure when I get the card cold, I won't hit the limit.

Any chance for a classy bios with a higher power limit?

got the classy bios! works damned good! no more throttling! went from 52xx to 5494 in firestrike extreme! any chance for a bios with a higher power limit?

Ya I completely agree. Luckily we have someone like you because my last couple cards would have really sucked without your vbios mods. I bought evbot thinking the limit was much higher. I'm just extremely happy to have a card finlly that allows more than 1.2v. I had like 4 680's and 4 different titans and everyone was voltage locked so I got really used to it. I wasn't even sure if this years classified allowed higher voltage before I bought it. EVGA didn't advertise that feature at all. Jacob was asked so many time before the cards release about the voltage and he never answered so a lot of people were thinking it would be locked down again. So I am pretty satisfied but I completely agree with your points. I would be really upset about the memory also. I kept saying how great it was and now everyone gets one and it's not. One of my cards mem goes to 7450mhz and the other hasn't crashed yet at 7500mhz, that amazing to me coming from my titans. That's also game stable speeds. It's almost like the samsung memory modules should have been rated at 7000mhz like the 770's and so we would be getting a normal overclock by going up to 7500mhz. 6000-7500 overclock game stable is crazy.

Yeah that memory thing is a bummer, the best I can do is about +400 , and that's with a good tail wind, when I try to get vmem higher than 1.675, I'm hitting the 115%.. On the other hand, the core clock like crazy, I can run firestrike at 1410x1640 with 1.3vcore, the card barely break 60c temp wise...

so, does your bios work with elpida?

having issue clocking the mem... +350 is flaky thru Heaven... 1359x1650... need to try your bios!

Thx, I was trying with the stock LN2 bios at about -30C as I had only about 1 liter left, will try again when I fill the dewar and get colder...

Whit the classy bios, is it possible to set v higher than 1.5 with evbot? I mean you can set it higher but when reading with a DMM, seems to not go higher than 1.5....
