how can this possible?

is it GPU-Z error?

W1zzard · Jul 21, 2010, 03:23 PM

whats wrong ?

edit: ah, saw your other thread.. SDR is certainly a GPU-Z bug

wolf · Jul 21, 2010, 03:30 PM

The ram type is incorrectly reported as SDR, it should be GDDR3, also this chip has 8 ROPS (incorectly reported as 16) according to all the sources I can find.

I also have a HP laptop with a 5650 and will post a screenshot shortly.

EDIT:

Laptop:

HP Pavilion DV6-3030TX

ah the problem is that it can't access the bios, so it tries to read the memory type via a register which seems not used on that gpu anymore

can you check in catalyst control center what it reports for memory type ?

wolf · Jul 21, 2010, 04:14 PM

shows DDR3, also those clocks are my own overclock, trying to push past Afterburners limits of 715mhz on the core now.

W1zzard · Jul 21, 2010, 06:26 PM

can you check if the attached build returns the correct memory type ?

wolf · Jul 21, 2010, 11:27 PM

Still unchanged W1z, ROPS too.

which driver are you running? can you install catalyst 10.6 ?

unfortunately the 5650 in my particular model is locked to only accept HP signed drivers

no go on 10.6 unless you have some sorcery up your sleeves.

EDIT: how about I actually answer your question too :P

driver build = 8.692.1-100122a-095235C-HP

Actually you can install new driver..
You can download it from here.. https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206..._64_dd_ccc.exe

But anyway.. nothing will change.. Gpu z shows memory type still as SRD on my 3031ET

wolf · Jul 23, 2010, 12:16 AM

Fantastic! cheers man worked a treat, 10.6 running perfect, however still shows 16 ROPS and SDR.

wolf · Aug 25, 2010, 08:57 PM

just thought I'd resurface this thread to say with new GPU-z the card still reads as 16 rops instead of 8 and SDR instead of DDR3, which also accounts for incorrect pixel fillrate and memory bandwidth.
