Test Stability?

That must be what's causing that wall (no psu power cables).

I think I might try out furmark for stressing, I think it would be more reliable than the games I have.

That's the highest I've gotten, which is maxed out. Not stable at all, once I load games, I get instant BSoD... But, ****...

That's quite a high OC

That it is, but I'm not sure if it's an actual reading. I don't get a driver error or anything, but for some reason the card (video) stops working whenever I load 3D apps. Don't really have issues with rebooting like normal video card errors (at least that I have come across.)

What are you cooling your card with? I'm not surprised that it stops working at 880/1440/2200. The numbers in your Sig look more realistic.

That's what I am able to load everything with, and be fully stable. Has stock cooling, along with a couple fans circulating air around it. Like I said, I'm fairly sure these are not actual numbers that the card is running.

What are your idle temps at that overclock? Compared to stock?

What are your idle temps at that overclock? Compared to stock?

Temps - 50C idle (maxed) vs. 44C (stock)

Fan Speeds - 60% (maxed) vs. 30% (stock)

It's probably hitting it's thermal limit when a load is applied and it's locking up instead of just kicking you to the desktop. When you look at the sensor tab of gpu-z at an idle your speeds are in a 2D mode which should be around 1/2 of your overclock. When you actually try to go into 3D performance mode I bet your idle temps are shooting up to the 70d+ range before it actually starts doing any real work.
