Radeon 7850 Overclocking Issue

[Alberto Jahuey Moncada]

The thing is that i have a Radeon 7850, and i am trying to overclock it. The issue is that whenever i try to test the card it wont mantain the overclock, lets say i have it at 1050 mhz, when i run some benchmarks the card slows itself down to 860 mhz.
Is there a way i can fix this??

What software are you using to overclock?
If you're not using AMD overdrive make sure you turn on AMD overdrive in the CCC menu.
My 7850 never had any problems overclocking.

I was using MSI Afterburner, but i read that having AMD Overdrive enabled creates conflict with Afterburner so i disabled it

It's the other way around, MSI AB overides AMD Overdrive.
Turn it on and post back here if it fixes it.

It seems to be working, i just enabled both and it got fixed. Thanks 😀, i will see if it gets to 1050 without resetting
