Hi all,
I wanted to O.C. my Sapphire HD 5870 1gb (the version without volterra controller) and i found that i can't overvolt this card..
if i unblock MSI AfterBurner i can set more than 900-1300, but i always get bluescreen after like 10 minutes playing BF3.. (tried 920-1280 and 915-1280)
So i'm trying to understand what to do for having like 940/1280..
I wanted to try to flash the bios with one of the bios stored in the techPowerUp! wonderful site!
But i don't know wich to choose. I saw 1 bios for Sapphire card, that has same device-id and bios version as my 5870 (saw in GPU-Z)..
Now i wanted to know:
1) Is right to use this bios? Or i should get another bios (like asus unlocked) ?
2) If i brick the card i MUST have another card for flash back the basic bios?
3) Does the flashing change something or it's better to not flash my card because of it doesn't have the volterra controller?
Is a good way flash the bios or it won't solve my problem?
Thank you =)
