Title: Saphire 5850 Xtreme overvolting? Post by: brunoshady on June 16, 2011, 11:07:01 PM Does anyone tried to overvolt a saphire 5850, or a similar with or without bios flash?
I have some questions about it... Title: Re: Saphire 5850 Xtreme overvolting? Post by: Meman on June 17, 2011, 01:13:33 AM Tried it for myself. It works, but the GPU gets very hot (big cooling problem) and there is much(!) more power comsumption (watts per mhash/s). Only interesting for extreme gamers in my opinion, not for long-time mining, because of the high energy costs.
