    is tri crossfire possible? what drivers?

    I picked up an R9 290X on ebay that seems to do pretty well on that stock airplane blower, up to 1250MHz on core but at 100% fan speed it goes up to 80 degrees and when it goes up there it starts to artifact a lot. I have a single stage I want to smack on it, but I cannot for the life of me find the PT1 and PT3 BIOS anywhere on the internet. Back when they came out I was running two of these with water cooling and PT1 BIOS and it helped a lot, og gave me full voltage control. With stock BIOS I can only go to +100mv on core and AUX, I remember these BIOS being ASUS vendor and their program could get full voltage control and bigger range on core/memory clock. Card does…

    I'm trying to fully OC a Fury to run Superposition, but as I expected there's no means of controlling the memory speed with either Afterburner or Trixx on the Adrenalin driver. Trixx will let you move the slider and apply it, but it only changes the reported memory speed (I set it to 700 and nothing happened whatsoever). I want Afterburner to have memory OC because it allows 25mV more on core than Trixx. I know memory OC will not work at all on the last 28nm GCN driver, so I've been trying on Crimson 17.11.1 and 16.12.2 per what I've seen in other forum posts. However, Afterburner still has no memory control, and furthermore Superposition can't launch with these drivers, …

    I understand that you usually can't overclock. Do you have any good ideas? I tried the amernime zone driver, but the performance decreased.

    295x2. Having problems running 2 of these cards in crossfire (4 GPU's) on W7. Each card works fine on it's own but soon as the other card goes in , nothing , won't even boot. Any ideas guys ? Edit...got into BIOS getting ERROR: Insufficient PCI Resources Detected ?

  7. Hola everyone , as you already know this brand new architecture of AMD RDNA 2 has come in the form of RX 6xxx video cards. I can really say this video cards are fast and can trade blows with the rtx 3090 / rtx 3080 and rtx 3070 as i have tested myself. " Monster in all Firestrike benchmarks - FS/FSE/FSU " and nvidia cannot touch it there. In the wake of this new architecture some things have change in the amd drivers and in the rx 6xxx Bios too. As it stands right now amd has an artificial lock on the max clocks on the core and memory as you already might heard or know. This is the downside of this new video cards but hopefully not for long as there will be softwa…

  8. Hi All, So after asking around and coming to the conclusion that it isn't possible to flash my 6900XT with the 6950XT Bios even though they seem identical. Below are the links from Techpowerup 6900XT - https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/sapphire-toxic-rx-6900-xt-limited-edition.b8697 6950XT - https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/sapphire-toxic-rx-6950-xt-limited-edition.b9633 ....I managed to OC my 6900XT to 2260MHZ. Anything above that seems to cause slight instability. I know Morepowertool unlocks the power limit for the GPU but does anyone know how I can get more power to the Vram? Here is a recording of my 6900Xt with OC Vra…

    I'm running an overclock in 3DMark. I just can't figure out why there is too much of a gap between the top I've increased the GPU clock, memory, power limit, etc. I've increased the GPU clock, memory, power limit, etc., but the scores don't increase or vary. I feel like I'm missing something basic. I've tried both Windows 10 and Windows 11. CPU: 12900KF VGA: RX6600XT Motherboard: ROG STRIX Z690-A GAMING WIFI D4 Memory: GALAX HOF OC Lab Master (DDR4-4000 CL19 8GB x 2) Currently, OC tools are MSI Afterburner or AMD software. for OC tools. Any advice from professionals? Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

    Hello, everyone. I bought a RX6600XT and I would like to enjoy gaming and overclocking! Is there any particular manufacturer you would recommend? Personally, I'm thinking of Sapphire Nitro. I'm thinking that Sapphire's Nitro or Powercooler's Red Devil would be good for overclocking. Any advice would be appreciated!

    Have anyone succeeded to alter the max frequency OR the max voltage for 6800xt with the red bios editor? My max frequency is set to 2577MHz in the bios (when looking at it with mpt), and as it happens.. that is exactly how far it goes with stress tests or benches without crashing. Is it just a fluke that the max my card will go, is the same as what is set in bios for the max fq, or could it be locked to it in bios? The card is Power Color Red Devil 6800xt All insight to the matter is highly appreciated! Thanks. Kel edit. added card model.

    Hello, I have an old RX 570 4GB that runs worst than it used to do... But only on the memory. I had my memory just fine a 2250 MHz (max for the bios). And now about one week later it does not even run 1850 MHz. But the thing is that under that 1 week I bios flashed it back to the stock bios (because it got bricked) and I also updated the drivers under that time. So I started with using old drivers and it would still not work on 1850 MHz. So now I wonder if there could be something with the bios flash that made it worse. Any ideas what I should do?

  15. Ok so I just did my very first LN2 session with the RX 480. So I figured I'd share my expirience for anyone else intrested as well as start a generally discussion about pushing the RX 480 on cold. Stuff to be aware of My reference card didn't have either CB or CBB so I ended up running full pot. However I do suspect that my mounting might have failed at some point in time because I was clocking a little low and because I couldn't use the backplate for my Raptor 4 due to it conflicting with my extra cap placements. If you can get into BIOS but not into windows then you need to go into safe mode and reinstall the drivers because Wattman remember…

    Hello, I am looking for and can't find an older version of the Amd Gpu Tool version 0.7 My issue is with a HD 2600XT Gddr4 Pcie version card that hits a wall at 857Mhz on the gpu, I have heard that the Amd tool can bypass the limit in the bios. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello! I have a few old GPUs lying around and i decided to get the soldering iron and blow up some of them I always wanted to learn to overclock GPUs. I started with the Shunt mods, then learned to solder and look at datasheets, but now I found out my worst enemy - over voltage protection I built myself a chiller, however i am unable to use it since this OVP hits me. It hit me on my 770 (managed to hit 1.299 volts MAX) and now I am fighting with this 4870. Can't go over 1.499v. I would really appreciate some experienced old school guys to explain how the OVP works on this thing. (or in general) I was reading the datasheet of the VT1165MF and the NCPsomethi…

    I have recently gotten into doing R9 290/290X 3D benching and have run into a couple of issues. I have a couple of Sapphire Tri-X OC 290s that are able to run 1300/1600 on water, but AB/ABX/Trixx will not allow me to set higher than 1300 on the core. Memory can go up to 1645 iirc. I have not tried BIOS flashing as of yet, or tried to unlock cores as I was hoping to get the software side of things solved first. I have a DICE/LN2 session coming up after Christmas and I'd love to be able to push these cards past 1300/1600 and do some benching. I have heard that there may be a way to modify the BIOS to push past the limit that AB/ABX/Trixx set, bu…

  20. I know some people have had some trouble getting hybrid crossfire in this and similar weird unofficial configurations to work... myself included! I want to share my steps that have led to it enabling itself while they're fresh in my mind. Many of these might be totally irrelevant, in fact hopefully most of them are, but this is still black magic so anything that could possibly have affected it is included. Hardware is A10-6800K, Asrock FM2A88M Extreme4+ and Sapphire Ultimate passive 7750. Monitor is some BenQ thing connected with a passive HDMI to DVI adapter cable (HDMI on the system, DVI on the monitor). If any hardware other than that affects it, I'm quitting …

    Guys, maybe you can help out here. I was running a few benchmarks after I got my RX 480 8GB (reference) to see the performance compared to people who had the same card. * But I am getting lower scores than people with the same card (using the same clocks), as an example, this is what I got running Vantage at 1415/2150MHz: AMD Radeon RX 480 video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-3930K Processor,ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
