Recently purchased this card, works fine using default frequencies but ANY attempt to overclock causes immediate corruption of graphics.
I have tried all various setting combos, removed Gigabyte'd drivers and installed cat 4.8 - tried to flash the BIOS (latest already), in fact everything I can think of.
If I hit "find max core" it raises to about 501 (varies slightly) until first errors are shown - then very shortly after that the display corrupts (whole desktop) and/or hangs. The default core frq is 500 - surely an increase of 1MHz should not be so fatal???
BTW - using the "overdrive" feature pretty much results in the same thing...
Is it likely to be software/firmware related, or a hardware problem that I am just going to have to live with?
