any bios mod for our cards ?
well, you can try evas bios. its posted earlier in this thread afaik, and also in his thread in the 3dteam section.
it gave somebody here a slight gpu boost, maybe slightly higher vgpu? besides that i havent seen a bios for 3850 512mb cards that have the 860mhz fix and offer higher vgpu or anything
I hope the stilt has some time during the holidays to maybe have a look at evas bios cause it seems to work on all or almost all non ref design 3850 512mb cards.

atitool doesnt work AT ALL for me... it freezes instantly when it loads
afaik there will be a version to enable more vgpu but its not out yet...
i hope w1zzard has some time during the holidays as well to have a look at this hehehe

crazy how we depend on enthusiasts because ati doesnt get things right :/ too bad...

for mem ocing i recommend atitool or the fur test from ozone3d, which is essentially the same. they will show artifacts very notably as white or black blocks. once you find the max stable mem speed reduce 20-30mhz and it should be 100% artifact free even in far cry.

you have the 256mb cards...
for those there are several bioses already, some with increased vgpu, increase gpu and mem clocks and a 860mhz+ gpu fix

try this bios for example:
