You have tried with 680i overclocking with BIOS options well try with tweaking software like nTune system utility this will help you to do that in better way ,nTune also provides control over more mundane functionality, such as the order of boot devices, and whether a full-screen logo is displayed at startup.

yes (Ntune System Utility) NVIDIA System Utility is really remarkable good option for overclocking it is the ultimate utility for accessing, monitoring, and adjusting your system components, including temperature and voltages with clear, user-friendly control panels. Overclock your system for highest performance or underclock it for near silent operation. All changes are performed within the Microsoft Windows interface – enabling full functionality without the need to make changes in the BIOS and reboot your system.
