If you do something 3d, ie play a game, you'll notice that after you close the application that powerplay now works on the second card.
There is something buggy in 9.5 where you cannot use CCC to downclock the memory. I've tried it and had other people try it too. Unlike the 4870, you can't change the idle 2d or load 2d clocks. I'm hoping this is fixed with the next driver because I'm sure these will happily run on 250MHz. Power savings FTW.

When I saved a profile the 2nd card went to 2D settings
Set the fan speeds on both to around 55% - cant hear them over my other fans. Temps are alot better then what they were!
