Installed 12.7 Catalyst Beta. BSODed during installation. Restarted, tried again. All went well, everything's installed.
did a run at 950 stock voltage, no artifacting. Did a run at 1Ghz stock voltage, had one small artifact-y stutter (this was before I put power limit up to +20% so that probably wouldn't have happened if I had already done that.) Maxed out at 63 degrees celsius during the 1 ghz run with a max fanspeed of 46.
TBH I think half those problems I was having were from the damn 12.6 driver.
It's 3 AM, I'll go for higher OCs tomorrow. 'night.
