Nice one, I'm still rocking my I7 5960X as well But I think I have the golden of the golden samples :) I've been running mine @ 4.5ghz 1.17V Vcore, 1.8V Vccin (tops at 1.84) and 1.05V Vccio for a few years now, completely stable... I can even run it at 4.8Ghz @ 1.3V, but I only did for some...

I got a 1080ti founders edition, a triple monitor setup + VR so I need 4 ports, but I'm having a problem. The card has 3 DP ports and 1 hdmi port the hdmi port works ok and both DP on each side of the hdmi port work ok but the DisplayPort (closer to the motherboard) was not working with any of...

please?

anyone?

I have 3x HD 7950s 1 is a Gigabyte and 2 are MSI I'm using afterburner to overclock them, when I overclock all 3 cards clock raises but after some time the primary card's clock goes back to default (I'm using the gigabyte as primary) Driver is not crashing or anything like that, if I...

At the end I will buy here in the UK. I didn't want to buy online because I already had the dollars on me, that I got at good rate and if I pay with my card, my bank would charge a fee plus a higher conversion rate. I didn't know you could get this in the US.

Thanks for that, but now I´m far from there, I should have asked before, because I drove from Orlando to Miami and Palm bay was on the way :mad: Now I have only 2 days left before I go back home and I´m not going to lose one just to drive back there. And since I wanna pay Cash, I cannot buy...

Hi, I´m sorry if this is the wrong section or if it is illegal to ask. I´m on holidays here in Miami and would like to buy water cooling parts for my pc, can someone advise me a good physical store? I´ll need pump, radiators, cpu and gpu blocks, maybe some fittings and that is all about...

The 290x comes with 2 different bios... quiet and uber... The question is: can you have both working bios on an unlocked 290?

What about the quiet and uber bios?

2600k to a 3570k in my opnion is a downgrade (I7 to I5).. I upgraded from a 2600K to a 3770K... and I only did that because I sold my 2600K for the same price I was going to pay on the new 3770K... if not.. doesn't worth the "upgrade"

It is a Game issue, not a driver issue.. they will release a game patch soon

Lowered the prices :)

I also have some: Far Cry - Blood Dragon £7.50

Alot of people think that if you have 2 cards with 3Gb each you will have 6gb of Vram, but you will end with 2 mirrored 3gb of Vram. If you use a card with 6gb + 3gb you will end with 2 mirrored 3gb max.

So, did it work?

I got an answer from HIS support about this: "This is due to their bios timing and settings are different."

on amazon I don't know... but the right thing is that you should get 1 per card. if not.. just make 2 orders :P

Will Asus release a new bios for Sabertooth Z77? I'm having problems that I cannot change my multiplier... my multiplier is set to 45x and if I put any number it still holds the 45x.

download ATIFLASH http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/2230/mirrors.php make a bootable dos disk or usb copy atiflash to it and the bios you saved. you can save the working bios using GPU-Z or even the atiflash... with gpu-z is easier. or you can search for your bios here...

I would get the 7850 for sure... I think the 7850 is something like a 6950.

I found something strange on ELPIDA website http://www.elpida.com/en/products/gddr5.html W2032BBBG-50-F chips that they are using on this 7950 HIS cards are rated to run at 1250(5Ghz) and 1.5V+-0.45v, but they are running at 1.6V.

Is your 7950 the 960mhz boost edition? maybe you got one of the card that have problem on the fan controller... and after 60C it makes the fan goes 100%

I did the upgrade from [email protected] to 3770k@4500ghz.. the difference in tests is like 2 or 3%... in real use you don't see any difference... I sold my 2600K for the price of the 3770k, that is the only reason for my upgrade. If I had to put any money, I wouldn't do it.

Is your card the IceQ, IceQ Turbo or IceQ Boost?

but as far as I know a higher voltage would compensate this lower efficiency of conducting electricity, making a lower asic card using a higher voltage perform like a higher asic with lower voltage. I tested the 77% at 0.993V and still it was 3 to 4% faster than the 61% at 1.256V 1.2V, 1.15V or...

According to Alexey Nikolaichuk (the author of RivaTuner and MSI Afterburner), the correlation between voltage and quality is as follows (7970 non ghz): ASIC quality < 75% - 1.1750 V; ASIC quality < 80% - 1.1125 V; ASIC quality < 85% - 1.0500 V; ASIC quality < 90% - 1.0250 V; ASIC quality...

I was asking that, because on the experiences that I had. Looking on the cards that I got, you could conclude that, but looking on yours can't :P

Lower asic % = higher leakage chip = so it can take a higher voltage. But a higher leaking chip requires a higher voltage to operate at the same frequency, so power consumption is increased. But probably the official 7990 will use high asic chips, to run on lower voltages and draw less power...

I disagree, I have 2x 7950, same brand and sequential serial numbers but one has 77% asic and the other one has 73% asic and they have different default voltages. The 77% is 0.993V and the 73% is 1.031V and the 73% uses a little bit more power.

I understand that, but doesn't lower asic mean that the card will need more voltage and more current, so it will draw more power? the 81% asic 7970 that I 1st got, could do 1200 with 1.17v and 1250 with 1.2v the 63% asic 7970 can do 1180 with 1256V to do 1200 it needs 1.3v. so running...

Is AMD saving high ASIC chips to the 7990 or what??? I got my hand on many cards since 7900 series were launched. January 2012 - 7970 - 81% asic March 2012 - 7970 - 79% June 2012 - 2x 7950s - 77% and 73% July 2012 - 7950 - 68% September - 7970 - 72% October 2012 - 7970 - 66%...

to run the cards at 1100mhz.. I need 1.150v on both... reference and IceQ And the IceQ runs at least 10C cooler, but the reference still perform 3 to 4% better. I think it's something with the memory and not the actual GPU.

If this was true a higher voltage on the same card would increase the performance until a limit and a lower voltage would decrease. I think the higher voltage already compensate the lower electrical conductivity...

About the voltage / temps. I could undervolt the boost card to 1.1V without problems, they were running 15C lower than the reference ones. Even with default voltages, the IceQ ones run cooler than the reference. About the Asic the reference ones are 77 and 73 asic, the boost ones are 61 and 60.

I have 2 reference 7950 800/1250 running on my system.... I got my hands on 2 His IceQ Boost Edition 850(925)/1250 so I did some tests... I found out that even running with higher clocks the Boost edition was getting same performance as the reference. so I underclocked the Boost edition...

you need to click on that "?" on the side and run the render test. If you don't click there, it will show @x8 1.1
