Gamer Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Can't seem to get past 1.216v on this card. Enabled the dip switches but to no avail. Tried several ABX editions but voltage is always stuck at +0.200. Ideas? Drivers, skill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dernettemann Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Witch ABX Version you use? With newer than 2.2B5 i have the same problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farjam Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 did you try ABX 2.1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 I tried the 2.10 MOA edition and it gives 1.6v but doesn't apply it. Used a multimeter to confirm. Does all the switches have to be at the ON position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poorya_lion Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Did you switched to LN2 BIOS ? http://www.guru3d.com/miraserver/images/2011/gtx580-lightning/IMG_4122.jpg I didn't have lightning X version , but it should be same as 1.5GB. First double switch from right should boost vGPU and vMem 0.1 Volt, try them. Did you measure voltage with multimeter under gpu load ? Turn all switches On but don't stay on full load for long time. Southerner switch (near PCI-E slot) is for cold-bug , I don't think that should be necessary to be On. (Num 1 = on : -80C , Num 1+2 = on : -180C) http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_580_Lightning_Extreme_Edition/images/dip2_small.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yes, turned them all on, nothing changed. Max voltage I could get is 1.276v with AUX at +.05. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME4ME Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Did you check while in 3dmode? Enable Force constant voltage, in Afterburner settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 LN2 bios is not on the card? It should be I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) There is an LN² bios on the card, but I get the CB at -75°. I can use the same bios as on the 1.5GB version? Edited December 14, 2012 by Gamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 CBB is solved with the XtremeCool switches on the back - both should be ON. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 They are both at the on position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
