I got my Swiftech installed today, so I figured I should show you guys what this new system I've been building looks like. Max temps with 3GHz/1.6v were 55/48c during S&M 100% load.
I guess it works pretty good. About a 6 degree improvement in load temps. on the hotter core, and 11 degree on the other. Idle temps of 26/22c with ambient ~20 are a little better too, although this chip has been known to read sub-ambient in the low teens. I might try remounting the block.
:pimp:

nice man looks like your setup is really progressing! sweet!

also the temps seem in line for idle at least. 2c delta is not bad at all.

Well my rig crashed on me last night after about an hour of racing Dirt2 when I had the cards recklessly overclocked without testing to 901/1000. I set them back to stock and all was well for 3-4 hours of straight racing. My system thrashes Dirt2 even with the cards @ 850/975. I'll test them out for max OC later on. :)

did you log temps on the cards??

I'm not sure what you mean. But I was thinking about having the fan speed adjusted in the BIOS....at least on the sapphire because that thing blows like hell unless you turn it down. It would be great if the fans ran at 30% all the time. I think the sapphire thinks it should be hotter, so it turns the fan way down so it idles around 48c. I would prefer that it idled about 38c which is what I am getting with 30% fan. Can you help me?

yes sir I sure can. heres what I'll do though. I can edit the bios with the fan setting like that, OR I can show you how to edit it in msi afterburner to run at 30% until it gets to like 50-60 degrees then kicks the fan up higher. if you leave it at 30% fann all the time it will likely overheat with high gpu load. when I was talking about the temps I meant while you were gaming at 901/1000

Ohh gaming...I have the main GPU temps in the MSI OSD, and I don't think I've seen higher than 60c and I had the fans @ 50% until tonight. I have a 120mm intake right next to them and a 140mm right behind the power plugs. I'll go run a test race with the fans at 30%. I'll be back in ~15 minutes.

Yeah that would be great if you show me how to do it with Afterburner.

And no I haven't tried Riva Tuner. I think I thought that was for Nvidia only.

Maybe it wasn't the cards at all. Maybe it was the CPU. It just happened again...everything just straight locked up while I was racing Dirt2. If the cards were too high I would see artifacts and stuff I'm not suppose to see right?

EDIT: I just ran a couple races with the cards at 901/1000/fans @ 35% and the sapphire hit 61c and the xfx 51c. I need to make some adjustments to the sapphire.

yes ait would artifact first then the driver would revoer or the game would freeze, sounds like cpu to me maybe even ram.

ok theres a pic with afterburner up. go to settings, fan, enable user fan control then follow the pic.

The ram passes memtest, but I never did a long stress test on the cpu, only s&m short duration/ 100% load.
I figured out how to set the curve, but it doesn't change the fan speed after I apply it. I set it to go 30% up to 45c then go to 50%.
Nevermind I think I got it. EDIT: I don't think it went up to 50% because the temps were 62/55

hey guys, just a simple question, I have another HIS HD5870 on the way for some crossfire goodness. When I install the second card, do I uninstall the drivers and do the driver sweeper shit, then put the card in, install drivers and go nuts, or can I just install the second card without uninstall the drivers? :eek:

i HAVE tried that, and it worked pretty well

but it differs from setup to setup imo

it will def. NOT hurt to try it, and it might save you some time;)

im sure of that:toast: just dont know what card i want, or if i should wait for the 6xxx series?

I see alot of ppl use 2 bridges for some reason and heard it decreases performance or sum shit like that, have u had any issues like that?:confused:

random people get random issues, IMO its because they've got a faulty bridge or something.

I've found zero difference between one bridge and two even on 16x/4x PCI-E 1.1 boards (p35)... but that said, it was zero difference. why not use both bridges in that case?
