It seems many people are over estimating the card's overclocking peformance based on the temp monitoring utility. Be warned, THE TEMPS COME DOWN EXTREMELY FAST! The only way to get an accurate temp is leave the temp screen open on your desktop and alt tab out of whatever application you're running to stress the card. You cannot get to the temp screen fast enough any other way, drops from my all time high of 82c to 64c take about one second, it drops even lower seconds later.

On the upside nVidia says they are built to run at 105c :Q, I guess that's why the default slowdown is set at 147c on mine.
