I recently found out my voltage was at 1112(?,dunno,seems low to me) on my Diamond hd 7970 radeon card, so I decided to bump it up to 1175 and max out the sliders. Temperatures are still easily controlled by manual fan settings and it never goes above 76C. I'm going to do some fine tuning after and keep lowering the voltage and benchmarking until it crashes.

Is this a pretty decent overclock? Been running it for 2 days now on all games for hours on end with no issues so I'm pretty sure it's stable.

I got the same overclock on my XFX 7970. I think I can go slightly higher. As far as overclocks go, thats a pretty good one. A 200mhz overclock on the core is a pretty significant overclock. Even my 780 can't get that without becoming unstable at stock voltage. I think you could get more out of the memory clock though. Every card I've ever owned has been able to get at least 400mhz on the memory.
