It's just the chips that make the difference. Here's EK's web page where you can see that every manufacturer is using the reference design for 7850 - http://www.coolingconfigurator.com/waterblock/3831109856918

My card lacks of VRM temperature sensor which is annoying. Maybe I can measure it with IR thermometer. I found some cheap heat sinks on ebay, will try them. I was thinking about custom water cooler, but it comes too expensive for this card (around $70, the card is $170 new).

Of course. By now I achieved 1190MHz core with 1.255v and the core temperature is pretty good (82 degrees Celsius or 180F). With 1.24v the card goes BSOD, so I jumped to 1.255v. and I'm close to the limit of the cooler and VRMs probably. I'll have to buy some heat sinks for the VRMs.

Thank you very much. Gonna try it now. PS. Flashed the BIOS. I'm starting with the tests.

Hi dr.noob. I checked the BIOS you edited for monmaker (Sapphire 7850 1GB). I have the 2GB version of the card, but the memory chips aren't the same, so I won't experiment with it. My max core voltage is 1.225v which is not enough for me to hit 1200MHz (in the same time people hit 1200MHz with...
