*** Official Radeon HD5800 Series Overclocking Thread ***

Hi Guys

I've been following this thread for some time now.
My Sapphire 5870 arrived and i did some testing.

I ran the VANTAGE on performance setting.
GPU P11900 and CPU P12600.

Run it at 1680x1050 at stock clocks at the Extreme preset ( or better yet run it on the default Extreme preset if you have the display for it ) I am curious as well as you are not the first person to get around 12000gpu on the P setting with a Phenom II. This should at least tell us if its being bottlenecked ( as 1280x1024 is still very cpu dependent and P mode doesn't use anti aliasing )

I get GPU 6xxx in vantage extreme.

Yes, does extreme setting eliminate CPU bottle neck? I can't see the guys system specs for an apples to apples comparison.
