Just saw MSI today released the GTX 670 Power Edition which according to them let's you adjust voltage on gpu, memory and PLL.

You guys think there's more overclocking/performance to be had with kepler when you can raise voltage and hopefully clocks or is there not much more performance to be gained from higher clocks then factory set gpu boost?

It will be interesting to see how high it will overclock with some voltage. This could be the new 7850 in terms of overclockability.

Is there any other Kepler that has voltage control?

They all do but it is very limited

Notice the voltage adjustment

wow, i heard they would be some. I thought it would be some sort of software change to allow it or something. But i guess it has to be done by the vendor, either way this is the first of many that will come......my prediction!

With afterburner's latest version 2.2.2 it does not matter how high I try to raise the voltage with the slider, it won't actually go up. But, as I have said in several other posts, MSI has promised that voltage adjustment will be possible with this card on the next/future afterburner release.

Does the slider not work? What is the highest voltage you have to work with right now?

The slider will adjust but it's not affecting the GPU's voltage. The GPU will max out at 1.175 (under heavy load) whether or not the slider is adjusted by +12 or +100.

I hope they fix it with updated software. I think people will easily hit 100mhz higher on the core with a small voltage boost.
