Hey everyone. I just overclocked my old XFX Double D 6870 for the first time and ran a program called FurMark with the following results:

Resolution: 1920x1080
AA:0 Samples
FPS min:26 max:33 avg:29
Max Temp: 79 C
GPU Core 950 MHz
Memory 1200 MHz

I didn't see any artifacting.

Is this a stable overclock?
Should I try to push it more?

Thanks in advance.
 
If you do not see any artifacting then try gaming for a few hours. if no problems, then this is considered a stable overclock.

you can try pushing it further, and with the stock bios, the worst it will do is crash, and then performance will decrease after the crash (restart computer after this happens)

obviously do not push it too far in one jump, as you can really break things. go up by 10mhz at a time until it crashes, then dial it back 20mhz after the crash.
