use the ATi WinFlash lah, easier...

dump the BIOS with GPUz, save it as a backup (who knows... later corrupted BIOS), then dump again for BIOS editing (if applicable) or flash the one you downloaded from TechPowerUP!

920MHz/2500MHz, damn... gonna rip her again at higher clock... brows.gif

use atiflash or others as mentioned, things to have as backup:

- backup stock bios (u can use atitool for that)
- always prepare a pci card (or pci-e but i'm not so sure bout this) b4 flashin, just in case d bios incompatible & u get snow screen after d flash. laugh.gif

hope this help bro... wink.gif

yeap, sure can... either you can flash blindedly (using DOS - never try it though) or it's way better use other PCI graphic card... (i'm not sure if it work on PCI-e too though...)
