Hi,
this morning i went to get my new 6870 and i wanted to OC it a little. In the sapphire box it has an aplication called ThiXX that allows touching GPU core clock, mem clock, and gpu voltaje. I know that ati has the option Ati Overdrive too, but honestly i dont know wich is better.
I dont want to do an extreme overcloking but i need to know how far i can take this board without damange it.
I saw many people increased the GPU clock from 900Mhz to 950Mhz and mem from 1050 to 1150 and it work fine with a temp of 81 grades. Does this reduce the board life?
I am open to any advice, and personal experiencies from people that allready done this before.
Thanks.
