Have a Visiontek 4870/512mb reference design card... first, I love it! Used it for a grand total of 4-5 hours so far - way impressed. Last night experimented with Autotune overclocking in CCC 8.8. Got some good results.
The profile .XML file set to a idle fan speed of 40% (yea, a little annoying, but idle temps around 45c)
BIOS is stock - no other mods, stock cooler.
Autotune results (drum roll):
GPU: Ran AutoTune and it climbed to 790 (the max in CCC) on the core, stayed there and then backed to 780. It moves in 10mhz increments.
MEM: The memory then climbed to 1100 (the max in CCC), stayed there and then backed to 1090. It moves in 10mhz increments.
Question: is it coincidence that Autotune backed it one notch from the "limit", or does it do that by design. Surprisingly, the temp reading never went above 68c at any point. I'm curious if this card has more potential, or did I hit it here.
