Poll: ATI cards clock speeds

[CBA_Bludawg]

im running a powercolor 5870 thats already factory OC and i get anywhere from 110 to 120 FPS

Then I use the 6870 with Catalyst 11.3, does not exceed 300 MHz, without using ATT (When you start the game, makes an attempt to get to 900 MHz, but upon entering the main menu down again to 300)
Forcing with ATT, the game is more or less smooth, with light stutter

had it limited to 507 mhz dont know why with catalyst 10.9, updated to catalyst 11.3 and its now correct. improved my fps too, thanks for bringing this issue to my attention, had those crappy drivers for a long time.

have a 4870 2x 1 Gb ddr5 by the way.

My 5870 clocks down to 400 mhz (from 850) for some reason. Is there an easy fix for this issue? I'm using the 11.4 beta driver.

[Triggaaar]

Mine is still stuck at 500 MGHz clocks, which is a bit of a pig. I'm not sure if the dev team are addressing it.

Never had the problem, but am running MSI Afterburner (mainly for a modified fan profile, but have tweaked the core and memclocks too)

According to AMD, the 11.4 beta driver was issued to address some specific issues with the 6-series cards. I'm using 11.3 with no such issues, although I am using MSI's Afterburner as stated previously. This is a mildly customised version of RivaTuner, and works with most modern cards if you want to give it a try:

S!

My 6970HD seems to go for full speeds, checked with AMD's nice little resource monitor.
