Default NVIDIA GTX 260 Overclocking

Today I started overclocking for the Gigabyte Beat me if you can competition.
The contest starts with overclocking the GTX 260 this month.

This morning I started with air benching in 3D Mark Vantage.

With stock cooling I achieved a core clock of 775MHz and 1300MHz Memory, and a Shader clock of 1710MHz.

CPU: Intel W3580 @ 3200MHz
Motherboard: EVGA CLASSIFIED
RAM: 6GB of Patriot Viper 1600MHz DDR3 Triple Channel @ 1866MHz
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 260 (216 SPP) @ 775MHz Core, 1300MHz Memory, 1710MHz Shader

3DMark Vantage Single GTX 260:
P13773

I'm also interested in softmods or hardmods if you're running them. I have the exact same card myself.

Right now I have no mods hard or soft
Im running the card with stock voltage and cooling
I am researching into the mods and looks like BIOS and hard Mods are the way to go for voltage adjustments, does any one know of OVP/OCP mod?

Woot, currently I see BIOS as the only option, unless someone here knows how to program
