Thanks for any help on this one.

I have the Sapphire 6950 Flex. Actually I have two in CrossFire. I was unable to unlock the shaders on either. It does have the bios switch, which is good.
I suspect that ATI has gotten around to hardware locking the shaders to prevent the bios hack. I could just have cards that failed to meet the 6970 quality standards. It'll become clear over the next week or two as more people try to unlock the flex.
I have not tried the 6970 bios to see if that works as I'm not willing to tempt fate on changing the memory timings.
With the custom heatsink and fan I'm happy enough to just overclock the card.
