Post your HD6850 Clocks!

[MustangSVT]

I think I've finally found a stable O/C for my HIS HD6850.
Please post your o/c speed and voltage. I guess I could reach 1k core with higher voltage but dont want to yet.

990/1150 at stock voltage

*more info:
HIS HD6850. The stock heatsink was fine but temp was going above 80 in load with kombuster.
Used Accelero s2 (yes, compatible) with 120mm fan and now its under 60 in load
using trixx as CCC seemed somewhat unstable with o/c (thanx Ravenseal)

Current game of choice is SC2 and it's much smoother now, there are no stutters.

Wow, nice.

920/1130 at stock here. I've been able to push it up to 960/1150 stable, but i don't need it clocked that high.

I haven't clocked them individually but my 6850CF run at 950/1150 stock volts.

Seems like if you can keep the temps down, these cards fly.

XFX HD 6850 1gb
Stock voltage
850/1100

I use Afterburner (last version...2.1.0?!?) and I can't get the clock over 850...what did I missed?

Did you unlock unofficial overclocking in the configuration file? See instructions here (works the same way for the final version as the beta, I just can't find the other page.)

I've had same problem even after i did the unofficial oc option.
so just use trixx instead. although I do miss out on osd feature.

Trixx is a win

I have a question for you guys. At what point do you reach 6870 speeds? 1000 core? I'm too lazy to google and I'm sure you guys did your research.

edit; nevermind , the answer is about 1000 core with a 6850 = a stock 6870

now you have something to aim for!

Honestly dude? Don't you remember what happened the last time you did this?

Why do you insist on trolling AMD threads. I am serious here. No one in this thread gives a hairy rat's ass about your 460 benches.

BTW, you are gone for a week maybe longer. I will discuss this with the other mods

Does that juggle your memory?

For real...just get rid of it.:thumbsdown:

Trying to help you out here...

What did I do? I said 6870 also. Thats a legitimate question.
No gtx460 ok better, like it makes a difference?

There you go! :thumbsup:

Fight the need bro.

No you fight the need bro. You take that slow a$$ 6850 way to personal.
Nice overclock though.

I wouldn't call it slow

You don't seem to have the guts to post a bench though :hmm:

haha happy, that was a nice sneaky way to bring in gtx460 into the thread .

but still 6850 was best deal at the time (1 month ago).

too bad sc2 has some bugs with it. Mainly the alt-tab issue.

I got mine for $135

Honestly an awesome card!

Pretty happy with the Sapphire HD6850 (non-toxic version)
Been running stable at
Core 1005mhz
