Ok so right now I just have the driver installed for my 3870 and nothing else. Should I install CCC? Does it have any benefits? Which of you have the driver and ccc installed and which of you only have the driver installed?
 
Using the driver and CCC 7.12 right now.

Try it, you can always uninstall it.

Have you flashed your card?

Yes I have flashed my card. Fan goes up and down quite a bit still (maybe because I dont have ccc but my card ran 3dmark06 last night at 870 for the core so the 862 bug is sure gone.
 
Im not sure how well it works with the new cards, but i always thought that ccc was something which wasnt needed. Its also a enormous memory hog, if i remember correctly.

Like oakstave said, try it.
