Just got some interesting info from The Stilt at MuroBBS
He's been testing a HD3870, and like pretty much all reviewers who have OCd the card, reached ~860MHz.
He said, that ATI has already released a new BIOS to fix an issue with the current/review cards - they have the PLL VIO divider set wrong, which prevents the cards from reaching over 862MHz on core. However, most of the retail cards should carry the new BIOS, luckily.

He promised to report with the new BIOS on OCs tomorrow

What's the likelihood that reviewers will revisit the GPU with the bios update?

If this is set wrong we should see an increase in performance at standard clock . As you OC the performance should scale a whole lot better then before.

Where is this bios
