Problems Overclocking 7850

Hey guys, I have been trying to overclock my sapphire 7850. i cant get it to be stable at all above 1050mhz on the gpu clock, and cant get above 1300mhz memory. I have tried with MSI afterburner, Sapphire Trixx, and Asus GPU tweak with the same results each time. I even tried running at close to the max voltage. I ran a few tests at 1100, 1350, at 1.2 volts and could not get any sort of stability. Is my gpu just not going to overclock or is there some piece of the puzzle i am missing here?

Full pc specs: i5 3570k @4.4 ghz, noctua NH-D14, 16 gb vengance ram, Asus p8Z77-v mobo, 128gb samsung ssd, OCZ 600W PSU, and of course a sapphire 7850 2gb video card.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

My Timewaster: i5 3570k @ 4.4GHz 1.19v, Asus P8Z77-V, Noctua NH-D14, Sapphire Radeon HD 7850, 16 GB Corsair Vengance, 128GB Samsung 830 SSD, HAF 912, Logitech G710+, G700

Hate to echo the last post but alas its true. Each processor, regardless if you buy two identical cards, will overclock different. (Took me a few tries to get my XFX 7770 Black Editions to behave and play nice in CF) Unless you have the funds to experiment..... leave it at the last stable setting. Always consult the great web, never know when you will find others with the same issue... Found this on Toms..may help.
