7900GS-Clock too high?
I let the drivers detect optimal settings. Came up 566(450 default) core and
1540(1320 default) mem.What do you all think? |

Seems OK. Thats what Ive read on the net, they are good clockers. I got one not long ago, and am taking it up very slowly, play few games for a week then clock it some more, rinse and repeat. As always, run a couple of stress tests, and see how she pulls up. Back it off to 550/1500 if you want to play it safe. I ended up with 555/824. 1500 is probably way too high. No way does a card pull double in different rigs. |

The driver really has no idea what the optimal settings are, since it
doesn't do any artifact checking. Visual artifacts and lockups are the only reliable indicators for overheating. Use the "fuzzy cube" artifact checker in ATiTool here (works on nVidia cards): http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/ . Increase the core and memory clocks from default 5-10 MHz at a time, check for artifacts at each step. Once you encounter artifacts, back down a notch. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.

Thanks,Pretty much what I was thinking.So far I've run imto trouble with
Google Earth Pro. Crashes to desktop. But Quake 4 is running perfect.Google Earth is running DirectX and Quake4 is running Open GL.Wonder if that makes the difference. BTW,I can't get Google earth to show buildigs in NYC,only the shapes all in white. Dang,can't think of the graphics term for that.
