Sapphire HD6950 1GB - Temperatures and Overclocking

[Jaskanwar Singh]

Yes vsync was on.

Now avg in RE5 variable bench is 93.6 at stock. Rest might be cpu bottleneck.

But skud i have checked load on win startup and start minimized. But still i have to load profile myself on startup. Why so?

 

[Skud]

No idea. In my case, that never happened. Have you saved your OC profile?

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

Yup i saved skud. Looks like i will have to modify burner through live cd

 

[Skud]

I guess its already in place.

Hi Jas. Sorry can't help you out with this as I haven't used Trixx. Maybe you can try to run it in administrator mode while right clicking?

Don't have dirt 3, but for comparison, in RE5, with highest settings and on stock clocks, I get around 85 fps in the variable bench. A friend of mine who has oced his 2600k to 5.1Ghz gets 135 on the benchmark.

Edit:

The RE5 score seemed low and I checked again. Some app was forcing my CPU to downclock for some reason. I restarted and ran it again and these are my results:

I think you might be getting a bit CPU bottlenecked..

which benchmark software you are using bro ??

 

[Skud]

There is a standalone Resident Evil 5 Benchmark tool available. Search Guru3D.

 

[rchi84]

The benchmark is also available in the game itself. When you launch it, and come to the first menu, under start, there's a benchmark option

Here is the result on 6970 clocks. Very minor difference.

Yea, ingame it is available too. For some reasons, ATI cards do bad in Area 3.

@max_007 : Which GTX 560Ti you have? Stock or OC'ed?

[Skud]

didnt get u skud

I was telling that most people would already have their fan profile set depending on temps.

@max:

that score is superb. don't bother about fps much, just enjoy hi def gaming.

 

[rchi84]

@max_007 You have a card that comes with a healthy OC from the manufacturer So no worries about warranty voids or anything.

I know Vickybat was interested in this (I am assuming this is what your question was related to), so here's a link to Error Detection in GDDR5.

Radeon 5870 and GDDR5

 

[Skud]

Thanks for the link rchi.

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

Is RE5 heavily gpu dependent?

Thanks for the link mate. Going through it right away.

Yes it isn't cpu intensive. Try crysis 2 with DX11 + high res textures+ ultra settings. Your gpu deserves it. Try it and let us know the results.

I think so.

No fan profile settings. Just the drivers. I can run the RE5 bench today. My last run was quite long back when the game came. But I still have it installed. Will post temperature logs, along with the benchmark today.

It should be - 'I deserve it'

I think so.

yeah thats why. max is getting average of 93.7 and i 93.6(on stock clocks). that processor thought aroused as he uses a 750 and i an athlon x4 635

sure buddy.

i tested RE5 and Dirt3 benches with 800mhz (stock clocks) and 875mhz. voltage and memory left to default 1100 and 1250.

here are results -

(the fan profile here is set to default, thats why you see 71c)
