Code:
DISPLAY=:0 aticonfig --od-enable
DISPLAY=:0.1 aticonfig --od-enable
DISPLAY=:0 aticonfig --od-setclocks=1000,300 --adapter=0
DISPLAY=:0.1 aticonfig --od-setclocks=1000,300 --adapter=1
DISPLAY=:0 aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 80"
DISPLAY=:0.1 aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 80"
aticonfig --odcc --adapter=all

Is this how you're trying to overclock them?

See what LinuxCoin is using. Whatever version of drivers/software they're using allows one to bypass the limits without changing the firmware.

Lowering the memory clock will decrease the temperature significantly.

yeah similar this is whats going on....  
Code:
Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
                            Core (MHz)    Memory (MHz)
           Current Clocks :    800           1000
             Current Peak :    800           1000
  Configurable Peak Range : [600-875]     [900-1200]
                 GPU load :    99%

Adapter 1 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
                            Core (MHz)    Memory (MHz)
           Current Clocks :    800           1000
             Current Peak :    800           1000
  Configurable Peak Range : [600-875]     [900-1200]
                 GPU load :    99%

and my temp is

Code:
Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
            Sensor 0: Temperature - 69.00 C

Adapter 1 - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
            Sensor 0: Temperature - 72.50 C
