Radeon HD5770- I can't set GPU voltage

Motherboard: Gigabyte MA770T-UD3P
Graphics: ASUS EAH5770 CuCore 1GB

My problem is that I can't set GPU voltage. I tried MSI Afterburner, Gigabyte OC GURU II, ASUS SmartDoctor.
It looks like this:


In ASUS Smartdoctor I get error "Can not find graphics card information" on startup.

I have enabled "Manual voltage control" in BIOS.
What's wrong with this?

Not all cards have voltage control , My old HD5750 never had it either. Does look like your card is supose to have it though so no idea why it won't work.

But look at this: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=125836.
The same graphics card, voltage changed.

EDIT:
I have uinstalled Catalyst driver (I also used Driver Cleaner) and installed the newest 12.9 beta.
Now, when I try to run ASUS Smartdoctor it says: "Can not find ASUS graphics card".

Are you sure you did it properly by setting the 0 to a 1 in the .cfg file?

If so, have you tried using Sapphire Trixx utility? You can get it here: https://www.sapphireselectclub.com/ssc/TriXX/TriXX.aspx

It is possible that ASUS has changed the voltage controller on this model of card and the new voltage controller doesn't support software voltage control

It gets more odd...
I have installed AMD OverDrive and it says: "cannot detect AMD CPU on this computer"

What's wrong with it?

That is quite odd. The CuCore I just sold could have the voltage changed through the latest afterburner if set to unlock voltage and enable unofficial OCing.

Well, There are Two ways, Try Asus GPU Tweak, if it won't work, the last thing you can try is to set the voltage on bios with RBE. But flashing the card have some risks, but it's not irreversible, there are many tutorials on internet on how to rebirth your card. Good Luck

Yeah I agree, is like I said, this practice is very danger, it can brick the card forever.

I haven't got any other motherboard or video card before in this machine.

I have already tried to modify BIOS but even this didn't work. After flash voltage was not increased.

I also tried Sapphire TRIXX. Voltage slider is enabled but I can only decrease voltage. Max voltage is set to 1200.

"Application has stopped working" when I start GPU Tweak (I have tried 3 different versions).
