Hi I've got the Asus ATI 5850 DirectCU edition brought about 5 months ago from OcUK, and I'm trying to squeeze alittle more performance out of it.

I've been using their SmartDoctor (Dont really like it) and I've been bumping the voltage upto 1.24volts to try and get 1Ghz on the core, plus a higher memory clock.

Some guy reviewed my card here:

Using his settings I decided to try Furmark. IT CRASHED :-(

, I also tried 3d mark too, which also crashed :-(

.

WIthout touching the voltage I can get 890Mhz on the core and 1140Mhz on the memory.

Does anyone have any experience clocking this card.

Try 1.34V, that's what this review says: http://www.vortez.co.uk/articles_pages/asus_eah5850_directcu_top2dis1gd5_graphics_card_review,9.html
