I have a watercooled 7950gx2, I'm using the 93xx drivers and I'm checking out the new control panel.. It auto sourced the max clocks to 1300/55 which I gather it does for everyone.

However I've been upping it and using the "test" tab for w while now and its at 1400/700 but I'm a bit concerned that the test doesn't appear to do anything.

The temps are sat at 35 idle, its an awesome EK full cover block in its own loop so temps are certainly not an issue.

What clocks has everyone else had on these cards????
 
My normal running clocks are 600/1400 which takes me to the temp limit with normal cooling, I used to be able to run it at upto 700 with extra cooling (and still just under 80) but of late it starts to artifact... gonna put some time in getting it cooled decently as this card is a stonking performer with overclocking.
 
Ati tool takes me to 580/1662 using the standard cooler. I have fitted a Swiftech spacer to improve airflow and have a panaflo 120mm x 38mm fan on a fan controller blowing over it all. With my 3800+ X2 at 2.5ghz it gets just over 8000 in 3DMark 06.

Don't know if that's any good but it does me just fine on my 22" Belinea. :)
