MSI 6950 Twin Frozr III Unlocked & OC

[anti5580]

I purchased a MSI 6950 Twin Frozr III yesterday and manage to get it unlocked and currently have the clocks running @ 880/1375 and increased the power limit to 20%.

I wanted to know is it safe to overclock the card further? Or is it best just to leave it.

Thanks.

Yeah it was showing on the latest version of GPU-Z, did a few 3DMark runs and showed quite a bit of improvement. Is there any other way I could double check?

In terms of overclocking, 6950/6970 should be able to hit 950MHz...close to 1GHz if you got a good chip.

I'll give that a go tonight then ... just wasn't sure if it was wise to OC the card since I already unlocked it and overclocked it slightly to match the 6970.
