GPUZ and ATI

Grnfinger · Aug 1, 2010

Need some help here and what better place than TPU to find the answer

GPUZ will not report my overclock, no matter what I set it to I get stock clocks reporting.

I've used afterburner, rivatuner and ccc, checked with furmark to make sure I was not in 2d lockdown. Anyone have some suggestions? I use 10.4 drivers if that matters

Yea I never got GPUz to show my overclock I had on my 4870x2. It would either show the idle clocks or the default clocks depending on which version I used.

Looks like a bug.
0.3.4 did show the freq correctly for my HD4890. (Try that one?)
I'm using GTX470 now and GPU-Z main window ("Graphics Card") GPU Clock -fields only displays the 3D freq that is set in the driver but it doesn't track idle power state clock ramping. Setting a new freq in Afterburner does make it to update.

0.3.4 wont show the overclock tried it

Mussels · Aug 3, 2010

i ran into this same thing, its just an illogical design layout. you need to use the sensors tabs to see current clocks.

Another bug is for crossfire HD5870 on Windows 7 x64: on the "Sensors" tab, for the second card it shows the correct core and mem speed only during 30 seconds, then switches to the 3-D defaults (850/1200). Reselect the card and it gives the actual speeds for 30 seconds.

GPU-Z 0.4.2.

that might be related to ati's ulps power saving mechanism .. if a cf setup is idle the slave cards are shut off (running no clock at all)

Blín D'ñero · Aug 3, 2010

Oh in that case: it never shows the actual shut off ("0 speed") state but rather it shows for GPU2 the same idle 2D clocks as GPU1 during 30 seconds... then switches to the default 3D speeds.

Yes, that is the ULPS function at work. If you want to disable it:

Run-->type: regedit-->tick "Computer"-->ctrl+F and search for ULPS.

It will search and then it should come up highlighted as "Enable ULPS". Right click, tick "Modify" and change the value from 1 to 0. There may be multiple entries of this that you'll have to change.

Blín D'ñero · Aug 3, 2010

I know about that, but why would i disable ULPS, i mean what would be the advantage of disabling it, other than for GPU-Z's and MSI Afterburner's monitoring? It saves power this way.

But thank you both for the clarification.

I just do it so I can retain fan control.. That's it really. :toast:

sensor tab does not show overclocks

mastrdrver · Aug 3, 2010

It will when it kicks in to 3d clocks.

Grnfinger · Aug 3, 2010

I'll load up furmark and test it now

I would have to say nope

mastrdrver · Aug 4, 2010

You're running in window mode.

Btw, is that water cooled or something? How are you temperatures so low?

overclocking101 · Aug 4, 2010

yeah he's on water i believe, I'm getting the same issue with my Nvidia cards, GPU-z does not see overclocks at all, that or the drivers are keeping the overclocks from actually taking affect, no mattter what I use, gputool,afterburner,riva etc

clocks finally show in GPUZ uninstalled rivatuner, afterburner and ccc, cleaned the registry and just installed ccc and rivatuner, clocking with RT and gpuz reporting properly.

My card is under water, I watercool in the summer and put stock cooling back on to heat my house in the winter

mastrdrver · Aug 5, 2010

Do clocks show correctly in the first tab of GPUz?

Grnfinger · Aug 5, 2010

yes GPUZ reports proper clocks on both pages now
