Title: Need help with freshly bought Sapphire Radeon HD6870
Post by: BCMan on February 24, 2012, 05:00:49 PM
 Its clocks are 960/1050 by default.  :o Is it normal?

 Well, Sapphire's Radeon HD6870 gpu clocks should be 900 mhz.

 Ok, found the prob. Problem was in activated overdrive by default somehow. Still, its pretty good results with it - max temp 68C with 310 mhashes/s. And I even not yet underclocked mem/undervolted it. Sweet.

What OS, Driver, SDK, Miner.... and clocks ?
I can get 310+ MH/s from my Diamond Reference 6870's, but have to run them at 975 Mhs on the GPU clock to accomplish it.

 Found a sweet spot - 1000/300/1.051v - 69C, 44% fan speed (auto), 323.5 mhash/s using 2.5 SDK.
