Hey!
So after (many) threads I opened, I got my 7970 today! YAY! The gigabyte GHz edition one, that comes OCed at 1100\1500.
VERY happy, very quiet!
One thing. I see a lot of people overclocking it WAY more than I am able to. So far, I have got it to 1200\1620, and if I push 15 from the core, it crashes. Testing with FurMark, and it "only" uses 99%.. Should I underclock it, because in games I use 100%? Just a little bit?
Anyway, I heard people talking about 1350 \1800, and I just cant see how it is possible to even get there! Using the new beta driver, I think its beta11.
Using MSI AB to OC. Fan is on Auto, the GPU never, EVER passed the 65C mark.
Now.. For some reason I cant change the core Voltage (mV), but I can tweak the Power Limit % up to 20.
Am I doing something wrong?
It has already crashes on me, twice, with 1200 1600.
