    Default Overclocking Graphics Cards

    I have a ASUS Radeon HD 6870
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121401

    Besides just moving the sliders in Catalyst Control Center (CCC)
    Are there any better ways to overclock it?
    How about other programs, how is AMD OverDrive?

    I think for AMD OverDrive you need a specific set of hardware, only certain chipsets on mobos, and the BE processors. I used it myself and found it alright, but not really any different from what you can do in the Vision Engine Control Centre. Also I think you can only increase the PCIe bus speed, not the clock speed of the GPU (correct me if I'm wrong).

    It does, I have a Sapphire Radeon 5830HD and it works like a charm.
