try a live linux distro and see if the issue is showing up there as well or not ?

whats that shader r unlock but texture fillrate and bandwidth and memory mhz and rops r lost thier mins what the hell is this dude

 

[topgear]

if you have a HD6950 then I'm sure you have unlocked it - unlocking is a process to unlock the dormant [ mostly bios locked ] shaders on a HD6950 to gain additional shaders counts for performance increment - doing so [ with clock speed increment ] makes a HD6950 [ 1408 shaders ] effectively a HD6970 [ 15087 shaders ]

From that pic I can still see Texture filrate, memory bandwidth, memory mhz and ROPS - so I'm not sure what are you trying to say here ??

LOL u're using Iball PSU with HD 6950? Change it immediately it might blow ur system lol. HD 6950 is a very power hungry card afaik.

lool too late to warn my psu is kind of F***** up today...i oced my xeon x3220 and ram while playing far cry 3 after 2 hr pc got automatic off ..i thought that because of heat of proccy and gpu but i tried to turn it on .bo luck...then i tried another hp oem psu all component r working...can u say which is the best budget psu for gaming and oc...and something about bios of gpu

 

[Nighthawk12]

Get atleast Seasonic Sii 520 (dunno the exact model) As HD 6950/6970 are very power hungry cards...

don't think too much about the gpu bios now - first get a good PSu like the one suggested above and test the clock speeds of the gpu.

any other budget psu uner 3k ..i cant go that far ...and any budget gaming pc cabinet under 2.6k and link plss

how to test the clock speed of the gpu

dont compromise on psu. It is the most important part of you system . Drop the the idea of gettng a gaming cabby now. instead get seasonic s12ii 520/620 and a local cabby. you can change the cabby anytime later.

how to test the clock speed of the gpu

use gpuz utility.

does seasonic s12ii 520 will handle what i throw at him like 3 hdd 1 odd ,6950,2x2 4gb ram and xeon ..how much peak power does this psu has

it should handle. but getting 620 wont hurt either as you have the budget.

 

[Nerevarine]

Seriously Iball PSU on a HD 6950 ... thats a new level of ridiculousness..
+1 to a seasonic 520 from my side

 

[niz04]

620 is totaly out of my budget its 5.2k..4.2k for 520....which is good

can this work *www.snapdeal.com/product/seasonic-eco-series-600w-power/1379245

 

[topgear]

Seasonic Eco 600W is a decent unit and if you want you can go for it.

 

[sumonpathak]

Eco series are basically s12ii series rated only for 230v lines...so can go for it...

 

[niz04]

does it can take load of all my things after oc xeon x3220,6950,2x2 4gb ram,3 hdd,1 odd

how many pcie does this psu has

 

[topgear]

it can easily take the load of your entire pc and it has 2x pci-e power connectors.
