Hi all, i have real problem finding a better, or at least working, program for overclocking my EAH 6870 DC card, beside the crappy Smart Doctor.

Are there alternative overclocking applications for that , non reference, model ? I have tested all i know and voltage tweaks are only possible with the Smart Doctor. But the software is making problems with some of the games i play, like battlefield 3.

So any one ? anything..... (i hope the Asus GPU tweak utility will evolve, but i cannot rely on that) :p

It cannot change voltage for that particular card i own. I have tested and found out:

Msi afterburner - all versions - no voltage control
Trixx - a suicide app - boost the voltage all the way up to 1.9v
Smart doctor - it sux but can change voltage
Evga precision - won't work with my card (maybe because they don't officially support AMD)

i am totally lost, and sad, after having my GF 8800 for 4 years i finally was happy that i will have voltage control on my new card , made a total mistake with asus this time...
