what are your OC results and are you satisfied with your purchase? i cant seem to find a good online review of this card :(
 
I have an MSI 5900xt, which is slightly different the same core (though I think my memory is 2.8, which holds back the oc a little and xfx supposedly ships with faster memory)

So far mine runs stable at 450/750 on air with no crashing or artifacting. I will soon be pushing the memory a little farther once I redo my cooling setup, but from what I've found most people end up around 450/800 or so.

With very good cooling, you MIGHT be able to push it to 5950 speeds.
 
There are a ton of 5900XT modded bios,there are quite a few that your card would like .
once you get over the fear of Flashing ,your on a never ending high for that perfect Bio.lol

I have a BFG 5900XTOC that i got for free,and have flashed it with every modded,and non modded bio out there,and just about every 5950 bio(doesn't like Asus for some reason)
It takes a licking and keeps on ticking) right now (for today) I have Point of View FX 5900XT modded bios from mvktech site ,Core : 300/500Mhz - 2D/3D,Mem : 930Mhz (Relaxing Latency - Voltmod - Throttling) BFG card loves them..I have found out that most of the time, another brand bios work better,also likes Chaintec bios.I've flashed it now 42x,and plan on flashing it that many more.
 
that was point in getting the 5900XT ;) between mad overclocking and a modded bios i can abuse this thing for a year and get all the performance from it i need while waiting for a 6900 ;)

Exactly what I wanted to do. Let's just hope it doesn't take too long for that sucker to come out...
