On my 1900 I can't use overdrives setting in Rabit. Don't want the card overvolted continuosly...

No, the voltage is a little off on mine as well. Overdrive seems to report lower on mine, whereas RaBiT is a lot closer to the actual value (tested with multi). I can't change the memory frequency too much in RaBiT because it doesn't support memory overvolting as yet.plywood99 said:

Run Atiwinflash and press 'save', it's very easy:

Thnx for the bios Cript, runs flawless!
But.., the thing i was hoping for, a wider overclockmargin in the CCC overdrive, doesn't happen. The memoryslider went from 800mhz max to 806 max, just a 6mhz increase:

I'm trying a driver re-install, maybe this helps. [edit] nope, mem slider doesn't go beyond 806mhz.

My impression of the card: I'm pretty happy so far, it wasn't difficult to install at all. The noise is almost unnoticeable over 3 120mm yate loons on the low setting. I idle at 40-45C, not too sure on loads. After an hour of BF2, CCC says 55C but I'm sure it was higher when I was playing.
The cooler isn't perfect though as ideal placement isn't easy in my case.
1. The slot tab is slightly bigger than a PCIe x8 slot, and it isn't very secure in a x16 one (the slot tab barely fits in because my locking tab interferes with the cooler). It's most secure in a PCI slot.
2. It also exhausts a bit of air through the backside, as well as out the case. So you may want free slots on the top and bottom.
3. You can put it directly under the video card but it's a tight fit and bends the card slightly because the screws on the block interfere with the cooler.
4. The size of the cooler may interfere with other things (SATA ports in my case), it's 8.5 inches long, not including the res cap or the tubing sticking out.
Right now I have it laying on its side inside my case

OK,,, got my card today.
Seems to have the same BIOS you all have downloaded. And yes, my memory is limited to 806 also.
But on a good note, it OC's that high using Overdrive and the temp pnly goes to 70C max after playing Oblivion for 2 hours and the fan is on low. Almost silent.
Nice!

I will give them a try tonight.
Just for an update, I have tried my Stock Powercolor BIOS and the Toxic BIOS with the same clocks and the Toxic BIOS gave me a higher 3DMark06 Score by 18 points. Timings are also different.
Stock:
Toxic:
I think I will be stick with the Toxic as this also give me a couple extra mhz in overdrive.
