I just picked up two of these cards last night and was having temperature issues. I flashed the bios, but could not get the control unlocked...still stuck at 1.2v. Would you mind sharing your method for unlocking it?
Thank you!
Thank you!
I use VBE7 to change the bios settings and then use ATIwinflash to flash it to the card, though I put by bios 'pin' in position 2 beforehand.

Though I couldn't unlock it to have another program change it, i have to flash it everytime i want to change the voltage.
Hope this helps

Thanks very much for your help...I was playing around a bit and noticed you guys were using 8912 for TC (flip-flopping the "9" and the "1")...that seemed to hurt my hashrate. I'll play around a bit more with different driver versions...I'm currently using 13.12 and haven't tried the earlier drivers.
