Unlike your Bios, when you format you lose your software and you must reinstall programs like Nvmax and you will have to re-overclock your video card from scratch with a format.

I would say it's a little more than 10%....although I would say that's a very safe assumption.

My Visiontek does 235/535 no problem without any extra cooling. Not really sure if it can handle more than that as I've never had reason to try it.
