I haven't really paid much attention to the GTX570 but took a look when one of our forum members posted about a possibly dead twinfrozr GTX570:

That's a bit worrying if this is really happening from some of those mild overclocks (not all of them are mild obviously).

A bit of discussion here:
http://www.overclock.net/nvidia/929152-have-you-killed-570-a.html
And here's a relevant quote from that thread:
"1.1v isn't even that big of an over volt, in the grand scheme of things. GTX 460 HAWK's didn't die like this until you ram 1.2v through them, and the VRM's don't even have cooling. Granted, 4 power phases isn't a whole lot but it should be adequate; what's telling is that the GTX 580's don't have the same issue."
Like he said, I would expect the 580s to have the same problem if it was just a question of the cards being overvolted, but they don't seem to.
