Just got myself yesterday a new Zotac GTX275 to replace my old 8800GTX.
I've overclocked it right out-of-the-box to 713/1512/1260, which are the clocks of the eVGA GTX275 FTW and got an impressive 3DMark Vantage score of P14669!
I've set the fan speed to 70% (instead of 40%) and the Idle temps were 53C, while LOAD temps during the run of 3DMark Vantage reached maximum 83C.
I'm pretty sure I can overclock higher, but I think I'll keep my overclock like that, at least for the time being, as the card is new and I want to keep it safe...
I apologize I don't have any pictures to upload, as I was eager to install the card in my case, as soon as I got home and totally forgot to take some pictures of it to share with you guys... _________________ Intel Quad-Core Q6600 G0 @3.4GHz (8x425)

Thanks!
As far as I know, the Threshold/Max temp for GTXxxx Video Cards is 105C, but anything above 90C is considered RISKY.
I still think that with 83C, I'm on the safe side. _________________ Intel Quad-Core Q6600 G0 @3.4GHz (8x425)
