Power and Overclocking

Power Consumption

Overclocked Performance

Unfortunately, the highest speeds Overdrive supports for the 5870 at this time are 900MHz core/1300MHz memory. These speeds were easily attained by both our 5870 boards. ATI says they’re looking into perhaps providing unlimited caps in a future driver release, but when, or even if that will happen is unknown. Enthusiasts will have to wait for apps like RivaTuner to add support for the RV870 GPU.
