Ref 7970 CF voltage problems

Featured Replies

Yay! Another problem that i've got bored of.

 

Basically.... my GPU voltages hardly ever match up in 3D mode, which means I lose a massive % of my attempted runs. Sometimes the voltages stay in idle mode.

 

Because of ATI power saving, the "wrong" voltage will move between card 1 and 2.

 

Is there any way to disable all the powersaving crap and just run full volts and MHz all the time?

 

I'm using Afterburner.

 

I do have 1/3 of an idea to try later on, but I don't expect it to work

 

Has anyone else ran into these problems?

I can't remember what it called but its I'm the new AB if you set it to 20% it helps with the down clocking

You lucky man Kenny... With AB "unlock volt" I can't even change it on my 580LTs SLI :( (using AB 2.1 and 285.38 drivers)

Tried it. Doesn't work for my downclocking. Maybe 20% isn't enough. I thought this power setting helped prevent throttling?

Will test when I have it all hooked up again. I googled it though and it looks vaguely promising :D

 

Thanks for posting!!

i have issues with voltages in СF too . to apply voltages and clock to both cards I need to disable CF , set manually volt and clocks to each card and than enable CF. it was crappy benching ..

well that maybe explains why I had only bluescreens while testing 7970 CF some days ago...hated the cards, went back to 580 ^^
