:!: Do not overclock your card directly to 560/1060. Increase speeds in 5 Mhz increments and test system for unstability before overcocking further. When you reach a speed at which the system is unstable, revert back to the last stable speed and decrease core frequency by a further 5 Mhz as a safety margin.
And remember that by doing this you are voiding your warranty.

I really wish it was that easy ...... u could have done a bit more research .... not all 6600's can work at 560/1060 ..... the 6600's come with ddr mem. with a max. limit of 650 MHz .....
