Title: I up my peaks on my 5970s and I crash Post by: bboques on July 21, 2011, 10:17:42 AM My listed peaks are 725/1000 and can overclock both 5970s to 800/1000 but if I choose 900/1000 everything freezes. I am running a 850 PSU, which I, swa,pping for a 1250 next week. Is this the cause? Or is something else preventing proper overclocking?
