I would like to know what a good clock rate is for a reference 7970?

Stock I'm at 925/1375 with newest MSI Afterburner

i think msi afterburner calculates a "pre-determined" max if you slide your sliders all the way up.

So 1125/1575? What about the voltage?

keep stock voltage because thats what your card will allow you to OC stock voltage

im not 100% on how afterburner works with the predected settings but im sure it doesnt let you enter 1500/1900 for a reason

if someone else can elaborate with facts and links to help this guy would be much appreciate

OP - careful when taking peoples advice on here, make sure you research it 10x before trusting them. it will cost you hardware if you trust people , many read a few threads and think they are doctors of overclocking cards

occasionally some guy will come here tell you to put your card at 1.25v and oc 1700/2200 and he wont care that your card died in 2 weeks

I'd have a look at my sig guide which will show you the various methods for overclocking your card.
