Keplar Voltages?

Just wondering what people have their Keplar GPU voltages set at. I read in Hardware Canucks that they increased their voltage by 100mv, I presume this is before Nvidia blocked overvolting via software.

I've had to resort to editing the bios to boost mine by 0.012v to 1.187v (is that over 100mv?) to get 1202MHZ (low I know, I should be getting at least this at default voltage) But I'm wondering if I can make use of Asus's more efficient VRM's (which apparently allow for 30% more voltage than standard cards) to push it further so long as I can keep the heat down.

Does it matter? IIRC only lightning with a previous AB version allows you change voltages meaningfully.
 
I know my GTX 770 4GB cards have a max voltage of 1.21v.. With GPU boost 2.0, I don't even bother with overclocking them anymore as the GPUs will automatically boost to 1240mhz by themselves with no manual input.
 
Interesting, I presume the 7xx series is from the same fabrication process as the 6xx?

Edit: I think that answers my question

Looks like I'm going to re-apply thermal paste to my GPU then, most likely MX4, took 10c off my last card.

What are people's thoughts on what to do with heatpads if the heatsink is removed?
