Dont waste your time overclocking your vid cards, you are completely cpu bound, and overclocking will do zip except heat your system up. I have a feeling even the extreme cpus are not enough to get full power out of these vid cards. It...

if you peak through to the fangui you will see the peak temp showing as 39 degrees while running a full benchmark and getting 10K+ on 3dmark05. I wasnt benching temps, just my rig, but thought the pic might be interesting.
