Catalyst 11.6 in Linux allows you to bypass the BIOS limits now. 11.5 didn't.

Code:
Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
                            Core (MHz)    Memory (MHz)
           Current Clocks :    975           300
             Current Peak :    975           300
  Configurable Peak Range : [600-875]     [900-1200]
                 GPU load :    99%

I've tested it on both Sapphire and Gigabyte 5830 cards.

I just installed Catalyst 11.6 on Linux (Ubuntu 11.04) and my XFX is still limited by BIOS settings. 11.6 does NOT allow me to go beyond bios settings.

Ok, I stand corrected. It does work.
