Overclocking the M8900 with HD 6970m Drivers

Is this possible?
I'm aware of the stability locks on Precision models to prevent OC'ing the card. When I use ATI afterburner I can't adjust the clocks any higher.

Any way around this?

 

You mean MSI afterburner or ATI Overdrive?

I can think of one way, which i do not recommend, that it might work: get a dump of the vbios of your card, and mod it using RBE (i don't know if it's possible with firepros, but it works for radeons). also note that vbios modding and flashing has the risk of bricking your card which is why i do not recommend it.

Dump and edit of the vbios is NOT required.
SAPPHIRE TriXX works fine. You can find latest version here: https://www.sapphireselectclub.com/ssc/TriXX/TriXX.aspx

Didn't know that, +rep and @OP, go with Trixx.

 

Excellent news.
