Some things I found out with my Sapphire 6670 low profile in 10.7.2

Needs PCIRootUID=0 or DVI won't work. (HDMI works)
If I enable PCIRootUID=0 , AtiConfig won't work anymore and I get RadeonFrameBuffer in ioreg.

But if I remove PCIRootUID=0, then AtiConfig with bulrushes works. But no more DVI and multi display.

So anyway RadeonFrameBuffer seems to work, I don't have an optical drive so DVD player errors out with no drive, Geekbench works fine, and ripple in dashboard works.

So conclusion, i'm sticking with PCIRootUID=0 and RadeonFrameBuffer for dual DVI + HDMI display with QE/CI everything seems to be working..

Oh yes, I can't figure out how to get HDMI audio at all and I really don't want to go thru the kext edit troubles as shown in the other thread.

Hope this helps someone.

EDIT: just to confirm, RadeonFrameBuffer shows 6xxx in system profile, bulrushes show 6670.
 
I would like to thanks all the helpers of this thread (and an enormous thanks to cheetaa)

I have failed to setup my card : ASUS AMD Radeon HD 6670 (don't buy it !!!)

So i have installed my Intel HD 3000..

Later, I will buy a HD 6870 more compatible than the 6670...

THANKS guys !

Same here. I want to thank all of you but it was too hard to get working. As RiderFx3 said do not buy it. I have Intel HD 3000 installed and im about to buy Gigabyte 6850. It is said to be working out of a box.

Same graphics card and same issues for me. RadeonFrameBuffer works for all cases (Cinebench, Geekbench, iMovie,OpenCL benchmark). I too have no DVD so I can't test iDVD. I have dual monitors setup (HDMI + DVI). In our cases, RadeonFrameBuffer does not seem to be an issue.

Talking about my experience with 6670
My card is http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/AMD_Series/EAH6670DIS1GD5/
I tried several FBs which were mentioned on the forum. The first FB working was Bulrushes after I modified the Personality. When i set GE=yes, Lion loaded it naturally without the "AtiConfig=FB".I had output from the displayport. But it didn't work well, sometime the mouse cursor disappeared.
So I tried the Duckweed (because some people use this BF on the forum). With modified Personality, the card works well now, but triple monitors don't work . It only works with DP+DVI or DP+HDMI.

Here you go. I modified Pithecia personality because it works with better benchscore. Remember to set AtiConfig=Pithecia
