I have a stock 5870 from when they first launched so it has adjustable voltage control :) now i wan't to know what kind of voltage i can put through this chip if temperature isn't an issue?

I've got a Swiftech mw-60r on the 5870 core with a loop that was able to cool an I7 @ 4ghz fine (of course no longer got the I7 on it so dedicated to the 5870 only :D) and i ordered a Thermalright vrm-r3 which i should get tommorow for vrm's.
 
With proper cooling, these chips can handle 1.35v which is the maximum Afterburner will allow you to set. At that voltage, you can expect anywhere from 1050-100Mhz on the core.
