Hmm, nice point. By the way, is the MCLK kinda divided by four? So, if Memory
Clock is 5600MHz, I'll have to do 5600/4*10000 to get the correct value? It's
like, 120000 value = 1.2GHz*4 = Original frequency = 4800MHz, right? If that's
it, I'll fix my quirk (AGAIN, LOL) and try using 970MHz and 5600MHz written as
needed, 'cause my GPU is MSI R7 370 Armor 2X, and looks like values in quirk
are *kinda* low for it.
