    GTX TitanX vs. A/E/G-Power

    in Extreme overclocking

    Posted · Edited by TiN

    Great info, thanks for sharing.

    Had used same amount of cards with EPower, zero issues, all cards and EPOWERs alive still after all Vince's abuses.

     

    Side note - there is a 4-position DIP-switch on EPower to set voltage as well, so you can control voltage without EVBOT, just not as much precise as with it.

     

    EPOWER is product available for sale :)

    LGA2011's I2C ain't connected to PCH :P

    And barely lots of people will like to risk their precious hardware hotswapping memory modules :)

     

    But after all, there are multiple ways to do the job, either way. I'm a hw person, so I like do it hardware way.

    Others who are nice with coding do in software, like Taiphoon Burner for example.

    And normal people don't care about any of these :D

    EVGA EPower-Board Review by der8auer

    in Extreme overclocking

    Posted · Edited by TiN

    I got some info via the IR engineer and it seems the R9-290X is using the new VRM Design. It uses SVID just like the new CPU VRM spec, and epower board is using the old VRM. The bottom line is that the EVGA Epower board can't support R9-290X. There is basically no way to make it run as the power board has no SVID Signal! We are going to make some power boards that support these 290X cards

     

    EPower can support any load, including R9-290X.

    Yes, you do need to take care of fooling stock PWM controller signals, to make sure other power convertors and GPU get proper signals first, BEFORE using EVGA EPower for GPU power.

     

    For extreme OC we usually don't want GPU controlling our voltages (disregarding if it goes from stock VRM, or external VRM), which is reason of SVID interface there. Lack of knowledge to properly mod card does not mean it cannot work ;) But anyway, let's see other VRM board with SVID working on 290X first. Having SVID will still do nothing, was there , done that before :D

     

    Rbuass run into power sequence/powergood issues after he disabled VGPU stock PWM controller, which is clearly the reason why he had no voltage on those secondary rails. Please don't mix different issues together.

     

    If anybody want - get me 290/290X and I'll post modding guide, lol :D Yes, education is expensive :cool:

    GTX780/770/680 Classy voltage tune :)

    in Nvidia GPU Overclocking

    Posted

    For those who wanted, some news regarding little fine tune program for card volts.

     

    Here's thread with tool.

     

    Seems work fine on 780 CLASSIFIED, 770 CLASSIFIED, 680 CLASSIFIED, don't have others to try.

     

    Provided AS IS, untested and unchecked and violates your warranty right away, but we already knew that, when solder our cards, right? :D

     

    Just a heads up, folks.
