I've got several Saphire OC 7870s ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A2J4ROE/ref=oh_details_o00_s02_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )

I'd like to undervolt them, while there's a bunch of info in undervolting 79xx, I haven't found much related to 78xx. My first concern is increasing the life of the cards, and second saving a little power. Unlike other cards, I haven't been able to find a BIOS switch, I'm pretty sure they don't have one. I'm little concerned about bricking them.

Outside of general undervolting advice from tutorials like cryptobadgers, does anyone have any advice?
Well, you can try VBE7 the same way.
Correct me if i am wrong, but he has pitcairn series cards, and as far as i know VBE7 is for Tahiti and up.
I actually used VBE7 for Pitcairn cards, namely a VTX3D 7870 and 2 Gigabyte R9-270 OC. Works the same.
I didn't knew that!!!!, that is fucking awesome, thank you for the information, I have a friend with a great deal of 7850s that will be very happy with that info Smiley
