Ordered some of these used 6950 cards for quite cheap, was wondering what kind of hash rate you guys gets from your 6950 when overclocked and flashed to the 6970version?
on the https://litecoin.info/Mining_Hardware_Comparison I can see they can get over 500khs , but Want to actually hear from someone who has this card?

Don't flash it to a 6970, you will kill it with overvoltage. Instead, extract the 6950 bios, unlock the shaders with RBE128 (?) and flash it back.

You'll get ~480 Kh/s, core 880Mhz, ram 1500mhz

I have the Sapphire 6950 and tend to get about 340KH/s on it with -I 14 in CG Miner at about 74c. Anything higher than that and I start getting HW Errors.
I played around with changing the voltage/etc. but never saw much in the way of changes so I just set it back to stock.

Running msi 6970 lightning and asus 6970 dcii and both do 503kh/s @940/1375 @ 1.075v max 60-70degrees.

If I oc my memspeed I got lower hashrate.
