360 Mhps at 900 Mhz is good - My XFX 5850 will clock to 925/425, but freezes if I go much above/below that.

I took the memory down to 400, the system is stable, a lil bit slow, but stable. Cheesy

It's all about the game, and how you play it

Bringing the memory down usually allows a card to reach higher speeds at the same voltage

Taking the memory down and keeping the core clock at 850~900 MHz?

You should try bringing the memory I'd expect 400 should be ok.

340 mhashes/s at 850 MHz.
Not sure if I should overvolt though.

Sapphire trixx should let you over volt the card some I have 5830s and 5870s that have all reached 1ghz a 5850 should do the same

I bought a 5850 and I'm getting 308 mhashes/s.

But the core speed of the vga is locked at 775 MHz, I know I can squeeze way more than that from the card..
It's an XFX Radeon HD 5850 (HD-585X-ZA), Version 3.1.
I'm using MSI Afterburner, already unlocked the Unnoficial overclock stuff..
Running at 62 C, 70% fan speed.

I would appreciate some tips, and if possible I would like some way to overclock the card further without flashing the bios.

Thanks a lot, appreciate it.
