LoL.. gotcha. Thanks for the info W1zzard. One can only hope :pimp:

So no other way to unlock it? There are physical differences then? Thanks, CobraXP

I am hoping the first 290s out are rushed and can be flashed :respect: lets hope and see :toast:

Can a 290 be flashed with a 290X bios to unlock the card? I did this a few years ago with a set of 6950s and they are still working awesome till this day. I just ordered a Sapphire R9 290 and was hoping it is flashable to 290X bios. Thanks, CobraXP

I ordered a set of Sapphire HD6950s last night.... lets give it a try :)

Afterburner config and change to unofficial overclocking.... I have never gone past 1110Mhz but I am sure it will go

I have Afterburner 2.1 beta 4. After turning off ULPS it works perfect. I have had crossfire since the second week the HD 6870s were out. I only blue screen at 5.2GHz+ on my cpu

It worked fine when I used it. I know I had some issues with the sync check box (don't uncheck it or else). I ended up switching to AB. Sorry i wasn't much help.

This might help some people to decide on 6870s. This is my fastest to date with cpu at 4.2GHz with turbo on

Nice clocks!!! :rockout: I am going to play with Afterburner 2.1 Beta 4 tonight for some benchmarks. I had no serious issues after changing EnableUPLS to 0. I had to change it in a bunch of folders. The key is rebooting after making changes.

Dude I have overclocked the living piss out of some many cards and never had that issue. The TriXX doesn't have enough voltage to fry them out. 1.30 is not much for these cards. They can go pretty safely to 1.40 with right temps. I had a set of 5770s that lived at 1.35 overclocked and benching...

See post above.... this will solve the problem just make sure the software is not on start up till you get everything running good.

It works on Crossfire. Just don't mess with the sync checkbox.
