I use CCC. It works for me but i don't go so high on the mem. And the core can't be clocked further then 627.

Some here say that Rivatuner 2.0 works good. But i find it a bit difficult to handle the settings.

Don't use ATT to overclock. It can fuck up your card according to people on the web.
Don't use the automatic overclock function anyway. Always do it yourself with small steps of 5mhz.;)

I can't use the fan control with ATT or AT. I use Speedfan because the Zalman has to be connected to a fanspeed controler or to the motherboard directly.

Stock fan on the above is a nuisance – always on 100% - I can only use headphones.

Want to limit rpms somehow but have no idea of current temperature/fan speed (pretty sure it is @ 100% all time).

ATItool 0.26/ATI Tray Tools/Everest do not support my card.

Have this x1950pro-specific drivers from ati - X1950Pro_8-291-1-060822a-036024C – v6.12.

Have tried to get help on hardforum and anandtech – no luck there.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
Click to expand...

No CCC cannot see tempr/fan either; tried 6.12, x1950pro-specific and those from the box.

I thought it was fixable like earlier x1600-series from GeCube.

Emailed ATI and GeCube.

Disappointed. If not resolved - shall try to return this card - on the box clearly says the fan is temperature-controlled so there should be the way to do it (in theory) unless GeCube lies.

Does anyone else owns this card?

Use ATi tool for temps and fan control for any card....just dnt OC if you have the X1950 PRO

@ JDPower, use ATi tool to OC...its pretty easy (altho dnt use "find max mem/core")...you card is supported ;)

Hmmm when I use CCC and go to ATI overdrive the bars only move the requested clock and not the current clock? Will this change when hit apply?
