so ive been benching the last few days with vantage and finally hit the 27k mark



however i couldnt get it stable past 915mhz on both gpus, 1275mhz on memory although ive been
hearing that people are gettin 1ghz stable all day.. is that because of sapphires redline overvolting tool limiting me
at 1.1625v as well as 1.15v on memory??

anybody know of another overvolting tool besides msi's afterburner? msi's tool works beautiful as monitoring clocks/temps

let me know guys, i appreciate it!!

Yes its probably the voltage limiting you. You generally need 1.2 volts+ to get to 1Ghz and above.

Did you try this ? http://www.x-drivers.com/catalog/tweaking/video_cards/companies/ati/models/hd_5970_overvoltage_utility/14621.html
