I don't want to enable AMD Overdrive shitty overclocked tool always will be It's not even enabled so why is it doing this I want my clock to stay at one frequency...

I don't think you read the post.. If you want your 69xx series GPU to stay at one frequency, you have to disable PowerTune in AMD overdrive.
It's enabled by default at the driver level.

You don't have to overclock anything.

AMD introduced PowerTune a few months back in their drivers.

Go to Catalyst control center, write 'overdrive' in the search field and set the Powertune slider to +20 if you don't want PT to be enabled at all.

At the default setting it will attempt to save energy and optimize
performance based on the GPU load by changing the clock frequency up and down.

(Bad for mining because you will want the GPU to be always at full load and frequency, good for gaming)

So idk whats going on but my sapphire 6970's core clock fluctuates between 840 and 880 when I overclock ti goes to 950-840 why does it do this it also brings my mhash down to 300 when I overclock and at stock I get 360. My temp is 75c so idk why it would be doing this using Sapphire Trixx!
