"The cooling performance of the block coupled with our 360mm+ radiator setup produced incredibly low temperatures on the GPU - 42C under a sustained gaming load. Though I can't prove it quite yet, I think it's more than fair to say there is a TON of headroom left in GM204 and we should be seeing much higher clock speeds with some additional voltage flexibility. (And if KingPin's results are in any way an indication, we should see a LOT of clock headroom.)"

"Overclocking our sample worked extremely well, reaching the highest clocks in our GTX 970 test group. Memory topped out at beyond 2 GHz, in part due to the card's well-overclocking Samsung chips.
