Can anyone with a Radeon HD 7950 run 3Dmark vantage @ 1100MHZ core clock for me?

mine hasent gotten here yet and i would like to see it it can break the 39,000 GPU score barrier at this speed.

Do you mean 29,000? According to Guru3D it takes an ASUS Mars II (2x GTX580s) to best 39,000 GPU points, so I don't think your going to get close at any clock setting until you throw a second 7950 in there.

I would run it if I had a 7950, but I'm still chillin' with my 5870 lol

Actually a HD 7950 can pull off 28k stock.. My last HD 6870 crossfireX @ 1000MHZ did 33.1k

Yeah, I just thought you might have made a typo writing 39,000. The scores on that Guru3D link were 26.9k for a stock 7950 and 28.6k for the factory OC'd MSI card. 29,000 sounded more reasonable for your overclocking goals. I don't think you're going to get quite as high as 39k, but the 79xx cards are OC beasts, you're sure to get a good bump from those clocks.

Here's another Guru3D article that has a 7950 @ 1150 core / 1575 mem scoring 33.8k
Thats probably as far as I could recommend going (they had to bump the voltage too)

You'll probably get somewhat similar performance compared to your old 2x 6870's but without the crossfire driver problems.
