For anyone with Radeon 7950 / 7970 / 280X who wants more juice out of ZEC mining you can adjust your timings.
Mine went from
43 Sol/s --->
52 Sol/s. Running at 1100 / 1575
THIS IS ONLY FOR
HYNIX MEMORY H5GQ2H24MFR . I will post Elpida and Samsung memory types later.

Basically you need to backup your BIOS ROM file with Atiwinflash and open with a HexEditor.
Here is the original bios strap for a Reference Radeon 7950.

Basically what this does is updates the higher memory frequencies with tighter straps. For more info visit:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1554360/tahiti-memory-timings-patch-for-hynix-vramThis also makes ETH mining faster but only by 0.5MH/s but makes a huge difference with ZEC.
