Hello guys,
i recently bought Sapphire's HD 7970 Dual-X OC with Boost (blue PCB) and after some testing and OCing i stoped at 1170 MHz on Core ( VDDC 1,23). Problem is that i wanted also OC ram, but every time i increase frequency even by 1 MHz i get some strange monitor behavior (on pics under this post). I even tried increasing MVVDC to 1.7, but it didn't help...card is still not stable if i OC ram. So i have to run ram on default which is 1450 MHz. I tried both boosted bios and default bios, im using latest CCC and OCing was done with modded Trixx. So question is: should i return this graphic card and buy a new one, what would you do guys?
Thanks !
