no, just use an asus bios and mod it for voltage and use sd for range enhancement, voltage controll in sd is crap

Couldn't you just get the overdrive signature from the 6970 BIOS? Dunno if that's feasible.. :)
Maybe. That's something I leave for the community to find out 'cause I don't have one of those cards. Changing DeviceID back to 6950 might be necessary afterwards.

a good thing to do is just install smartdoctor and tick overclocking range enhancement and then uninstall SD. works fine even when I install another ccc over the top. my ccc limits are 1620/2500 :)

Cool, didn't know that. :eek:

will changing the vendor ID through RBE be enough to fool SD?
I did a few quick tests and found, that not, not even with SSID changed as well. Maybe reinstalling Catalyst will be necessary after changing VendorID.

it would be nice to know what is changed by SD in the register (or wherever) to unlock CCC, and create a small app that does the same thing...

SD installs some kind of driver. "EIO Driver" Maybe it is relevant to it.

Merry Christmas guys..

I made 2 files for you, one ASUS file which will work with Smart doctor 5.74 and a Sapphire file for those who don't want to or don't know how to force flash. The non ASUS cards will require a force flash to be done, otherwise you will get a subsystem ids mismatch error. (With ASUS bios)

As always, use at your own risk etc, Ninjalane nor Techpowerup is responsible etc.

BTW the stock 3-d voltage is 1.175, I bumped that to 1.275 in each file. everything else is standard, Powerplay etc still works like factory.

And as always, make a back-up before you flash, use the latest ATIwinflash or DOS based ATIflash. Be careful when flashing, close all open programs, Stock system, Set the card to default etc.

Higher than the mosfets can handle. The max in theory is like 2v. but anything over 1.5 is suicide, even on LN2. I tested as high as 1.5v on air and it gets too hot to complete a bench even with fans at 100% so realistic volts, 1.35 max with good cooling, scaling really slows down over 1.3v more volts just makes it hotter.

Any chance of an Asus bios with 950/1525 clocks at 1.22 Volts? Would be much appreciated :)

Can powerplay settings be alterted in RBE? If power play is at default and volts are higher will this make card unstable still.. I mean would you have to have powerplay set to +20% in ccc even if you are voltage overclocked?

Thanks for this... I have a strange behavior:
I flash your ASUS Bios with success! And temps went higher as expected. Also OC was better of course BUT then I decided to flash back to stock 6970 Bios but then It looks like that the higher VGPU still is active!!! Same Temps and same OC than with your ASUS Bios...
Any suggestions????

Could anyone get the signature method work? I tried msi 6850 oc signature given above, windows booted for first time and it reconfigured the driver settings. After that, second boot was a failure.(Black screen crash)

Did you power OFF the computer after the flash?
I'm sort of concerned why your temps/OC would remain the same...
