Hang on a min. That card is not a 7970. It is a 7950. Could be why you are bricking your card.

was brought brand new from distributor as 7970 model.
XFX 7970 bios working fine on it.
getting 530/khash now, was trying to get 680/khash as with my other XFX 7970 cards.
did anyone get 7950 bios working on it (Gigabyte maybe...)? if yes, which one?
Not that 7950 flash will improve much on my existing 530/khash, if this is really a 7950 card
?

If you are trying to squeeze some 20-30-50 khs out of your gpu, at the cost of damaging the hardware, or trashing its warranty, or wasting a lot of time and effort troubleshooting issues, take this advice from me - LET IT GO THE WAY IT IS. Totally not worth the time, unless you have at least 10x 7970s

What kind of numbers are you getting now and with what settings ?

I get 788 per card on two of these.

Anyone successfully flashed a XFX 7970 FX-797A-TDKC with a bios getting it a better hash rate?
I have tried about 10 different suggested bios flashes, some of which previously worked on other XFX 7970 cards, and it just bricks the card.
Help!

UPDATED info for FX-795A-TDKC model number, instead of type for FX-795A-TDKC originally posted.  Wink
