Looking for driver used, intensity and any overclocks and memory settings

I'm using windows 7 pro 32 bit

4 7970 under water
driver 12.8

engine 1200
memory 1050
stock voltage
cgminer 2.7.4

I'm looking for max hash rate at stock volts. I know many like to undervolt, but my electric is cheap and I want max coins for now.

Besides, under-volting goes against my overclocking nature...lol

If you're getting lower mem, let me know what tool you are using.

thanks.

Yes I know it's dumb to buy new video cards, except I have many other ways to make money with these after ASIC's hit and I got them for dirt cheap.

Use the 12.8 drivers, with the included SDK.

CGMiner defaults are "-k poclbm -v 1 -w 64", and those really do run the fastest. Use "-I 9", and you'll be all set.

You could use MSI AB to lower your memory clocks down below 1050. I run mine at 375, which seems to be the highest I can go without dropping speed, but still lowering temps.
