I thought I might give everyone a heads up on the overclocking status of the 5700 Ultra, since not much has been said about it yet. After some testing, the card I have has reached stability at 536mhz/1040mhz, which is 61/140 over the default of 475/900, or a 13%/15.5% overclock. The card is a review sample however, so it's using the Nvidia reference design, and may have been hand-picked for speed(although if it has, the plan has backfired, since few reviewers are trying/reporting overclocking results). If these results are typical however(and my gut feeling is that they are, at least for the memory), this might turn out to be a pretty good overclocker as far as video cards go.🙂
PS Nvidia also added an auto-detect feature to the drivers for overclocking; it picked 559/1070, which was stable enough that it didn't crash, but had to be scaled down to the speeds I mentioned to prevent graphical errors
