I read that you can flash the 5870 to the asus bios is it possible to do it if your running them in xfire or do I have to flash them seperate?

Why the hell would you want to risk 2 amazing cards. Just overclock, Your going to mess it up!

what are you flashing with? if ur doing it through windows then u disable cf, flash the first card reboot, then flash the second card and reboot

yianni

i was gonna use this method http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/sho...44&postcount=1

i dont think you can do it through windows

ArmenianLegend

well either way theres no risk as ati cards can't brick.

only concern is that file being 100% legit and not over volting stuff

and yes it can be done through windows, using ati win flash, less of a hassle

yianni

theres alot of people whos used that method and file to flash it . if youve tried to oc your card you know that its only possible to 900 core clock and 1300 memory clock. with the asus bios you can go up higher

I would do one card at a time. If you have a bad flash, you can use the working one to reflash the bad card. So doing them 1 at a time will be much safer!

then you may proceed to flash it, but you could as well do it by hand, would take much more time. with your stock bios u can go up to 1.1ghz-1.2ghz core if you kno what you are doing.

Make sure to save your stock BIOS somehow. With it, you can flash back if something is amiss. I don't know how to answer your question about the CF flashing. I would do them separately, but that's just me.

you cant flash both at the exact time. it will ask you to reboot as soon as you flash one card
