Hey guys, I was wondering what's the max speed one should run his 6950 @ (with the shaders unlock only) using MSI AB...
I could bring my 6950 to 1000/1600 or even more if I wanted to... but I'd like to hear whether someone tested different 6950 speeds above the overdrive limits (840/1325) and if there are any benchmarks I could look at to find out if it's worth it...
From what I hear, even though the 6950 are big fat cards with crazy heatsinks and powerful fan... it seems they're fragile as heck... easy to kill and such...
I'd just like to know your opinion about Overclocking the 6950 because it sure ain't like OCing my CPU...
