The pro clockspeed
 It has to be able to reach pro speeds, otherwise its a np, which is faster as well. |

It shouldn't have any problems running those speeds, even if it does just use atitool to underclock the card when windows loads or even create a bios with lower clocks.

yeah it should run at 380/340, just remember that if you decide to flash it your memory timings are gonna take a nose dive, and basically mean that the 340 is about as high as its gonna clock without more cooling... and probably voltage. I can get my core all the way up to 440 on a cool day, but at the moment (40C room temp) its sitting at 380...

why will the mem timings take a nose dive and why won't it clock above 340?? always hard to tell with overclocking but i don't think he'll have any problems hitting 360ish with the mem and the card as standard

Because the pro bios i flashed onto it has rather tight memory timings, dont ask me why it just did, and like normal ram modules tighter timings = less overclock, my ones used to run at like 4-4-10-4 (on atitool) now they are at like 3-3-6-2 but at those timings the card is actually quite a bit faster than it was when clocked at like 365.

i'm with you, when you said mem timings will take a nose dive i thought you meant they'd go the other way.
