Due to the other thread being for reviews and discussion and the odd overclock having read it I have decided to open a new thread purely for 6950 owners.

Purely to make the results more accessible.

Please post your clocks drivers voltage etc...

At the moment I am just running some 3D 11 and trying to get Heaven to run :o
 
I was sure it was you that sold your 6870 because you wasn't playing games enough, and it was your mate that was upgrading to a 6950 :p :D

Good thread though Easy, looking forward to some results :)

I felt left out so bought one myself to bench and play with over the holidays.:o
 
No you get it from a site or somebody thats uploaded it. From sapphire you need to register though. Surprised you never had trixx for your 6870. So far on my 6870 i have 1050 core and 1200 memory using trixx. The 6950 seems to be getting around the same kind of overclock percentage.

Trixx allows for 1.3v but i hear you can get 1.5 with some version of afterburner.

TBH I didnt have it long enough and was to busy with work really to play with it.


Maybe I should have kept it lol. But the guy I sold it too is happy and the cost of the upgrade was nowt in the end.
 
You have to edit the config file in afterburner and change overclocking from 0 to 1, this'll enable you to clock higher in afterburner. I'll have a look and see if I can recall how to do this.

Edit: if you go into program files>msi afterburner>look for a config.file called MSIafterburner and open it with notepad, right at the bottom theres a file called "enableunofficialoverclocking"> change this value from 0 to 1> save and exit and you should be able to overclock past 840 on the core.

Cheers mate:cool:
