Tkpenalty's X1950~HD4k Clubhouse

[Pinchy]

X1950 OC'd to 630/800 (1.6Ghz) using ati overdrive...clocked up perfectly without problems, got me 300-400 extra points in 3dmark05

Higher multiplier = less clock speed

Huh? wheres that from?

Added. Do you need a sigpic?

 

[Pinchy]

If you have time, ill happily accept a sig pic

BTW, u added my OC to Lazzers

Sorry... Im pissed.... my ipod... WONT FUCKING CHARGE!!! WHEN I PLUG IT IN IT SHOWS THE FULL POWER SIGN!!! THEN WHEN I UNPLUG IT IT SHOWS THE "OUT OF POWER SIGNAL!!!111" WTF??? THE PC WON'T EVEN RECOGNISE IT OMG OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!

 

[tkpenalty]

SOMEONE HELP!!! T_T
About time apple replied back >_>.

So yeh... who actually has HIS's X1950PRO?

 

[Zubasa]

Right now my Sapphire with the cheap stock cooler.
Idle temp: 43~45C
Load temp: 64~67C

I recently got my new HIS x1950pro-havent oc'ed it yet,its my first card so unsure how to get best out of it yet!!

Right now the best bet is to use ATi Overdrive.

Will try it when I get computer sorted,one of my ram sticks died,so need some more ram now

Post some pics of it and with a cathode tube if you have one .

 

[oily_17]

Heres some pics...sorry about the quality but computer in bits at the moment and I am shit at taking photos!!

 

[tkpenalty]

You're in !

Btw, my card runs the same temps as pinchy's lol... (Holy shit... HIS's cooler is sexy)

 

[oily_17]

My temps run
36C Idle
49C Load
(Havent pushed it yet)
Thats at stock 622/743 clocks.

Need new ram and some cable tidying now, its a mess at the moment.

 

[technicks]

I got the Sapphire one with Zalman VF900 and ramsinks.

Idle temp 29
Load temp 45
620/730

 

[Pinchy]

*phew*..my temps are normal for a change

Hmm...Accelero not all its cut out to be?

 

[tkpenalty]

621/786. Got a good batch of GDDR3 here .
Idle: 29*~31*
Load: 45*~51*

Btw, normal sapphires load up to 70*C.

Look at where he lives... Zalmans with heatpipes are very ambient reliant, but they ABSOLUTELY SUCK AT COOLING THE MEMORY. The Zalman's memory is just heatsink cooled, while the AcceleroX2 cools everything with heatpipes.

Just PM me if you want to join. PM if you want a sig pic as well . It would be easier if you post a 3/4 view of the card itself and let me photoshop it up to scratch.

They arent the same temps as mine

I get 42*C idle, and 61*C full load...@ 600/700 (stock speeds)

Whats your GPU ambient? (as in, temps around the card)

Has anyone used RaBiT to flash new fan settings to the x1950pro yet? I didn't own the card for 5 minutes before I knew ATI set those wrong. There shooting for silence I guess and they did a good job because my fans never spin faster then idle.

Yes because the bios says 41% from 0~69 and 45% 70C
It just never get hot enough for the fan to speed up.
The only time I see the fan at 100% is at start up.

 

[Lazzer408]

I know what the values are. Too low. I usually use ATITrayTools or some other 3rd party app to adjust them. I was wondering how well RaBit works or if it's stable enough for flashing cards. 100% was at 95c? That's crazy hot.

 

[Pinchy]

I dnno if its just me or not, but the Accelero doesnt realy make a difference whether its on 44% or 100%. Itll make like a 2 or 3*C diff, if that. I mean, either way, its whisper quiet, but still

BTW - to the guys with the powercolor extreme cards. Did yours come clocked at standard clocks, or at 500/600? Mine came at 500/600, yet i heard it was just a typo on the site, and that they were meant to come with starndard X1950 PRO clocks...

Yes. They are easier to OC though!

Like you gained a 200mhz OC.

However I must admit... my case cooling is appaling, I OC 60Mhz less due to the heat being trapped >_>. I need a better case like NOW!

AcceleroX2 is like 999999 times better in an inverted case.

 

[Pinchy]

yeah, we've got a good OC so far, and it should be better when it has no limits

I think my case is crap. Well, not so much the case, but the fans. Although you cant hear them, i dont see much point in them, cus they dont blow any air! My old 80mm LED fans @ normal speeds blew a LOT more air than these 120mm ones at full load (although they were uber loud and annoying)...But it kept my idled Prescott @ 28*C and my X800XT PE @ 29*C and my HDD @ 26*C (with a room temp of around 25*C)

& in this case, my CPU is @ 43*C (idle @ stock speeds, where a core 2 duo is meant to be cooler than a prescott), my GPU is @ 43*C idle, and hard drive @ 41*C

If you haven't realised yet the 80mm fans at MSY don't move any air. My generic fan by GTC moves around 31cfm . Its sorta wooshy and the connector broke though .
So this is what "silent" is. After getting the recommended parts for silence. I find that the system isnt quiet.

I reckon the accelero X2 X1950 could perform better than the Standard X1950 PRO from sapphire without a fan .

So we need more members! PM me if you want a sigpic.
