I am thinking about raising the voltage on my card to get a better OC. Right now I think if I raise the voltage I won't have temp problems. The temp of my video card never goes over 31C under load this is at 505/1220. Do you think it is worth it, I mean will it actually work? Could you suggest any programs to raise the volts, I DON'T WANT TO HARDMOD... yet ;)
 
My understanding of the 7800 series is that it is not adjustable in BIOS at this point, or with software. A hardmod is the only way. And, to be honest, unless you're willing to do a hardmod and understand what you're doing to the card, it might not be worth it to up the voltage on your card. You have other things to worry about besides GPU temperature. Raising the voltage on a GPU can require cooling of the power circuits on the end of the card, as well, for example.
