Hello,

I am trying to raise the Engine clock on some 5870's and everytime I try to go over 900Mhz it says

"Failed to modify engine clock speed".

I have seen tons of posts where people can go over 900Mhz.  What am I doing wrong?

Ubuntu 11.04 on a 4GB USB Drive, 890FXA-GD70, 4X5870's, cgminer.

Thanks

Bo

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

I had problems getting CGminer to overclock my 5830s, in the end I gave up and did the overclocking myself... Running nicely at 950MHz [Running under windows though]

What driver version?  I believe at some point the driver allows overclocking above the limit.  I know 11.6 does.
