And they did it for a good reason. Stock cooling don't have much headroom for overclocking in high ambient temps and a overvolted card can be easily overheated.
Unless you are living in arctic igloo voltages above 1.35V will fry your GPU. So, just to be on the safe side consider buying high performance water-cooling like Zeus did.Originally Posted by Mech0z

here's my 5870 with stock cooler and FAN 70%
A little bit of CrossFireX action with the second HD5850 on air (one is on water already, the other is on air, just arrived)
Yes, these are Furmark stable clocks on GPU and LinX stable clocks on CPU
No, this is not the highest that it will go. I will have higher scores once the second water block is installed on the new HD5850 in a few days.

I have one of the cold bugged 5970's (it pukes doing anything 3d while around 30c) Any of you with experience with the 5970 think this is something a different bios might fix? If so which one? Thanks.

Does that mean I need to flash my 5870 or can am I not able to change my core voltage no matter what as I'm using a non-reference board..?
chiggah - I thought the Ultra Durable cards had no Voltera chip, so no voltage adjustment is available at all.

Thanks! I should do a hard vmod next... Only used software for the voltage change and it's a PITA to get everything to work together.

Could anyone bench 5870 with latest drivers on Crysis?(not warhead)
Settings:
1680x1050
Very high
DX10
No AA
With these settings I would get around 40-41fps in avg with 4870x2.
Cheers

Do you want me to overclock the 5870 and/or CPU? What CPU did you use and what speed? I have an i3 CPU and 980x so can use either.

Hi
Back then, I used E8400 at 4Ghz.
Now I have i5 at 4Ghz.
I would like to have 5870 at 1Ghz and 980x at stock? Many thanks
A question to anyone regarding my consideration on buying 5870:
Does 5870 do fine at 1Ghz with autofan?
Cheers
1GHZ core isn't an issue with a 5870 and the stock fan.
Will run the tests tonight.

Still tuning my rig. Just got it up a few days ago. Hope I can make 1k on the core with all of them. My primary card will do 1030 on 1.3v and I doubt all three will. My CPU is an old first rev 920 I've had a while. It's not D0.
I'll have much more detailed results later. Consider this an early report for the heck of doing so.

1)I'm planning on Overclocking my future HD5870 Powercolor reference card (Haven't arrived yet) and my plan is to flash Asus bios and tweak the voltage and OC the card to 1100/1250. is it possible to do this on stock cooler?
2)But, is flashing Asus Bios is a real Hassle? Or is it just an easy task? Sorry haven't tried flashing GPU bios before.
3)I've heard of cards died by tweaking voltage and all, but is it possible to flash back the original Bios after the card died?
4)Or are there any possible situation that will fail me to flash the original Bios back?
Thanks in advance.
1) 1100 is far too ambitious, shoot for 1000 core.
2) It's easy, just google for a flashing guide.
3) Not possible to flash a dead card, period. Cooling is everything in overclocking/overvolting, just use common sense and watch temps.
4) None that i could think of.

My 5870 arived and I'm pleased with the Crysis result
Roughly 5-8fps faster than 4870x2
Is it nomral that the card starts to artifact around at 80c in furmark?
