hi,
i recently bought a sapphire x800 pro vivo, which is running really fine with 16 pipelines and on x800 pro specs. the pipelines were activated by a simple bios flash, no hard-modding. everything's running really good so far.
now i tried clocking at xt pe speeds, that is 520/560. it will run just fine for some time, heat up steadily and eventually the system will hang, maybe distort the screen and reboot. after that, usually screen resolution is set to the smallest possible.
so i thought it should have something to do with the cooling. cuz it will run good for quite some time. the card usually runs at 81° under full load, which i consider pretty much, but it will never crash. so i got a new cooler for my baby and am now running on 57° under full load and on 520/560. but, nevertheless, it will crash after like 15 minutes. sometimes more sometimes less. even the ram dice that were completely uncooled before, got their own huge cooler now.
does anybody have a clue what it could be if not the temperature?
or is it just too hot? what temperatures do you guys get that succesfully oc a vivo at xt pe?
thanks alot!!
