I can change my 5850's voltage and clocks with atitweak (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25750.0) in Linux.

Edit: Sapphire HD 5850 Xtreme 1GB

if its anything like my 5830 its locked in the hardware

you can do a pencil mod to get around it, but i haven't done anything like that nor have the right tools, so yeah. google gpu pencil mod
