    It unlocks to 6970, January 5, 2012

    I had no issues unlocking to the 6970 bios. This card has a switch to select which bios you want to use. You do not need to flash the bios on the card. You do need to completely remove all AMD/ATI graphics drivers before moving the switch to 6970, then re-install the drivers clean. Card runs cool 99F to 104F idle, to 152F under severe load and overclock. I am using Sapphire TriXX to OC to 880 and 1375 (stable and cool) and it moderately raises the temperature and fan speed. I easily pushed it to 900/1400 (stable but higher temp) with a voltage increase. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

    This card is a beast and around the same price as nvidia 560ti. This card is quite a bit better than nvidia 560ti and probably beats 570 as well at less money. Plays bf3 on high with 40-75fps.
    Aliens vs predators benchmark at 1920x1080p gets 55fps. This card will overclock well with sapphire trixx. Only con is it did not unlock to 6970 and i bought 2 of them neither one did. So dont buy this if you are hoping for a cheap 6970. Reviews i have read that this card overclocked will be at 6970 levels on factory clock speeds. Any questions just comment on here
