GPU overclock not applying? (280x/7970)

[Chickensoup23]

Hi guys,

Currently running a 280x/7970 at 1200 core/6400 mem. It's a nice overclock but it's not being read on anything. It shows up in GPU-Z and Afterburner, but during benchmarks (namely Passmark & Unigine Heaven) the scores are the EXACT same as they are at stock clocks. In Unigine, even after restarting & running as admin, it shows a 900 core clock/1500 mem reading (which is stock or lower than stock I believe).

How do I get my overclock to, well, actually work?

Thanks a bunch in advance,
-Chicken

EDIT: AMD driver is 9.14.10, catalyst 14.12

I got to ask this, you did apply the overclocks with afterburner?

Readings could be wrong in unigine, or atleast it reads my temps wrong.

Run the benchmark with afterburner open and afterwards check in the graphs what your clock speeds are.
