    Negative OC .. :D

    Well, i think that cool and quiet allso lowers the voltage, anyhow my cpu went from 38C idle to 32 idle when lowering the CPU speed from 2.2Ghz to 800Mhz. But the main idea, wasnt only to get a cool CPU but allso save some power consumption, my computer is usally on 24/7, and its usally...

    well.. at least i got to own the fastest card there is for a couple of months..

    i think they will apply Physix Processors on the cards insted of dual processors in the future or maybe both. SPPU Ftw :D :respect:

    Negative OC .. :D

    Well i have just been reading abit about AMD Cool 'n' Quiet! Technology, and if it works like they say, its what im looking for. Think ill give it a try when i get off from work. :D Regarding to the underclocking your grafics, i cant se why it should break becourse of that, but you might be...

    What are stable temps for my CPU?

    well silicon's melting point is 1414º C and boiling point 2355º C, but due to the thin layer and other things your CPU is made off, you shouldnt count on getting it that high... :D, aww jokes aside, and AMD CPU will melt at around 120-130º C but around 70 -90º C the silicon in the CPU will start...

    Negative OC .. :D

    i whould guess that ATI tool whould be able to do that, just clock the card to 100/100 or something, but my question lies with the CPU. the power down whould be nice and save energy and such, because my computer is basicly on 24/7 and there is no need to use power to run a X2 at full speed just...

    hmm thought cool'n quiet was for fan controle.

    Negative OC .. :D

    Well basicly OC'ing is all good and stuff. But i kinda want it a bit more dynamic, like when my computer is idling it drops way down in CPU usage, and when using it powers up again. Ive use the AI tools from Asus but they only supports Dynamic OC up to 10% and no Down clocking, so i wonder...

    X1900XTX Problems - Need help

    well i havnt tryed the ATItool yet, but i can tell you that 1 ting the flicker is the core speed changing ( have you read the satages ATI tool goes through when its finding it max mem, it does tons of shit and might give some wierd results). Regarding the temp, i have had my Card max out at...

    Modding the X1900 GT ?

    Maybe try and flash it with a bios from an X1900XT or something, not sure if it will work, just an idea i got in the late hours :)

    Eax1900xt

    When i try using ATItool with my EAX1900XT and i press the mem button at the buttom of the window, it says my card isnt supported.

    X1900XTX - Screen goes a bit mental while finding Max values

    I had that "problem" if you will, allthough i have an EAX1900XT, the low Clock/Men speeds is bcos CCC clocks down your card when your in 2D mode and powers it up in 3D. might allso be why ATITool aint working porbaly, atleast ATI tool aint working for me.
