Overclocking
The overclocks listed in this section were achieved with the default fan and voltage settings as defined in the VGA BIOS. Please note that every single sample overclocks differently, that's why our results here can only serve as a guideline for what you can expect from your card.
Maximum stable clocks of our card are 1120 MHz core (11% overclock) and 1750 MHz Memory (15% overclock).
GPU overclocking potential of the Palit GTX 670 JetStream is a little bit higher than the other GTX 670 cards tested today, but the difference is not that big.
Memory overclocking suffers due to the use of the NVIDIA reference PCB, which seems to handicap memory overclocking potential by about 100 MHz compared to other cards.

Important: Each GPU (including each GPU of the same make and model)
will overclock slightly differently based on random production variances.
This table just serves to provide a list of typical overclocks for similar cards,
reached during TPU review.
Using these clock frequencies we ran a quick test of Battlefield 3 to evaluate the gains from overclocking.
Actual 3D performance gained from overclocking is 11.5%.
