You don't have to push it to get GSoD....but if you should ever get one, then just Underclock it a little. Works for me.

Some or the early hd5000 cards were rumored to have grey (Gsod) screen issues. Ati has released a patch solely for this reason. Never been a problem for me cause i reflash the bios of all my cards anyway.

Hmmmm...i don't know if sapphire and Gigabyte cards have that problem, but (some) XFX cards(like mine) do.

re flash to another bios then lol, its the exact same card with a different sticker on the front and a different bios.... Xfx had that issue very early in the game... That was a while ago.
