Anyone tried this with a HIS ATI Radeon 6950 1024MB?
There is no backup bios on 1gb cards so flashing would be risky. If you google there are people that have unlocked 1gb cards using various methods whether its worth the risk is up to you.

Can be done to 1GB cards but you'd need a BIOS from a 1gb 6970, or use RBE to unlock the shaders on a copy of your existing BIOS.
I would say its the memory timmings.
Do what i posted above, will save your card and loads of problems.
I have just done a 5 hour stabilty burnin test. No problems at all.
had a strange problem since flashing both cards, this tends to happen randomly, so can be using the PC for a ages then it happens - horizontal lines across the screen and the actual screen splits up so 1/4 of the right side of my desktop appears on the left side, like the screen has been pushed sideways. Windows still works ok but need to reboot to get the screen position correct. If I print screen everything looks normal. this only tends to happen with google chrome open
any ideas?
So flash back to the 6950 bios then reflash using the one you posted above? not fussed about overlcocking the card yet as I need a new case, airflow is absymal at the moment
If I want to try unlocking my frozR 3 (non-reference) card is there anything different I need to do or can I still use the same 6970 BIOS as reference cards?
