I don't have a 9800gtx but I would like to add something: From all the time I have spent on the EVGA forums the one piece of information I have retained that has never done anything wrong for me is to avoid ntune like the plague. So just something to be careful of. What clocks did you manage to get anyway?

I'd have to agree with Mibs, avoid ntune, I tried it for a very short time for the GX2 and I had nothing but trouble with it, stick with rivatuner and just keep bumping it up in small incriments. I have a system I'm selling with 2 9800GTX's, I haven't OC'd them but I would think you should be able to get it to 725MHz if you've got good cooling.
