So I have a 5870 Vapor X 2gig cards. Latest whql cats installed. Cards run fine. But I noticed control centre says the core is 875mhz not 925mhz. Checked with gpu-z and it lists 2 value for each core. Default clock - 925mhz, GPU clock - 875 mhz. When I play a game or bench with Heaven and monitor the clocks with afterburner the 1st gpu hits max of 925mhz as expected. The 2nd one never goes over 875mhz!! The only way I have been able to fit this is go into control centre and up the slider for both cores to 925mhz. Still I'm concerned the 2nd card won't do that by default ? Bios revision on both cards are the exact same.
 
So anyone know what could be going on with my clocks ?

Also my gpu's seem to be running 10 degrees hotter since 10.4's installed. Was the voltage increased to stop screen flicker / grey screen issue ?
