That way you can go below CCC limits, to see if it's stable at 6950 clocks with the unlocked shaders.

You were correct all along, the modded 6950 bios was the trick. runs flawless now - so far up to 860 core and 1325 memory on stock msi 6950 voltage. Must have been some other setting in the 6970 bios that locked it - like mem or clocks too high, voltage too high, etc.. ideas?

Again, thanks Oztopher!

Here is the link i used for the 6950 mod bios
