Was able to pick up my DS Velox yesterday...and I can't even begin to express how impressed I am with this system. The craftsmanship and attention to detail it's worth the premium price of the build.

Congrats.   

Yes. Pics are a must.
All evil comes from within,
Not from Without,
Therefore, the 1st step on the Holy Warrior path,
Is to recognize thyself as thy 1st enemy.

Good question! Bpratt is absolutely correct, in sli your system will match speeds to the lowest clock of the two, which is why it is helpful to have one of the cards OC'd

I think what you mean to say is that you oc both cards and then simply enable or disable the oc profile as needed, otherwise it makes no sense.


Now where are those pics???
