Hi there,
my card (Sapphire reference 6950 2 GiB 21188-00-40R) has 2D clocks of (stock) 250 MHz core and (stock) 150 MHz memory and runs at a modified voltage of 0.790 V.
I'd like to lower the frequencies even further but don't want to narrow down the minimum frequencies by flashing the BIOS over and over using RBE. Also i'm not sure if the driver checks 2D clock speed modifications as it does with 3D clock modifications and then prevents bootup when non-stock frequencies are found.
Therefore I'd like to tweak the clock speeds using MSI Afterburner - but the program's sliders have a minimum value of 400 MHz core and 625 MHz memory.
a) why the heck is there a lower limit anyway and why is it way over the default frequencies?
b) more importantly: How can I modify the lower limit of these sliders to have some room for improvements?
Thanks
