I got the same OC on my stock EVGA GTX560. Core 810mhz-930mhz, Memory 1001mhz-1122mhz, Shader 1620mhz-1860mhz, and Voltage 1.012v-1.050v. Gives me that extra bit also runs pretty cool even at 80f+ room temp. Games like Metro and Witcher never have to go above 55% fan and keeps temps in the high 70c very comfortably for me.
