Its a sapphire 7970 dual-x OC ver and not reference one. However I believe sapphire is using reference PCB just that they change the Cooler to Dual-X. I flashed the original OC Bios (950MHz core) to normal Dual-X 7970 (925MHz/1375)..this one:
ATOMBIOSBK-AMD VER015.014.000.004.000000

Is this Ghz Bios? If I'm not wrong reference 7970 can use those Ghz Bios right.

This one is a normal BIOS not GHz. Yes reference 7970 can be flashed to GHz BIOS...the 7970 I'm using already have GHz BIOS in it. Just flip the switch and I have a 7970 GHz edition biggrin.gif

Does the GHz BIOS give you any overclocking improvement? One of the reason that I don't want to use stock bios is that having hard time to unlock in AB, while early unlocked bios(MSI one) is way more easier to unlock in AB, not to mention I can push more further comparing with stock for some reason.
