@Rescue9090 eh, I'd think that the GPU would start to thermal throttle down it's speed like most CPU's.
My 470's in my desktop have hit over 105*C and high 90's sustained for several hours of stress testing without any hint of problems. Insanely hot but stable none the less.

most overclockers flash the GPU to a modded bios! it voids the warranty though!

I've got the 570m in my 16F2 notebook and curious what overclock you've settled on that is stable and doesn't cause artifacts under heavy load? What's the point of diminishing returns for the card? Is there a point that you eventually reach where you can theoretically clock it higher but no real performance gains will happen? I've got mine at 750core/1500shader (afterburner's max) and wondering if it's worth it to flash bios to go faster

@FastRedPonyCar It depends on if you've got the 1.5G ram or 3G ram 570 card. There is a difference in the two. On the 1.5G version people are reporting overclock speeds of 730/1460/1850.On the 3G version I'm seeing max clock speeds around 735/1470/1640. I wouldn't chance anything higher than that.

@Rescue9090 yeah mine's 1.5 gig using the 285.62 drivers.
Basically I'm just curious if it's worth voiding the warranty on the card by flashing with svet's bios tuner or if I have more or less tapped the card for all it's usable performance as is. I can buy a new card if something goes freakishly wrong but I'm just curious if it's worth the hassle of getting it flashed and running more benchmarks only to discover the card is only producing more heat instead of performance.

@FastRedPonyCar You'd have to talk with someone more knowledgeable than me. However, if you overclock too much more you risk frying the processor.
