Yes, by flashing a custom GPU bios, which will void your warranty. Are you sure that your card's voltage is locked?

Yes, i am debating between the 7970 ghz and 670, and everyone says they are both voltage locked

I've looked around and there are people say it is and people saying it isn't, but the consensus is that the only possible way that it is unlocked is if you use Sapphire Trixx.
