4890 overclocking

[kerrgreg]

Ive started to OC my 4890, ive got Rivatuner working from a fix on the Guru3D forum, im not sure how acturate the temp readings are from it, hense my question.

The Core and mem temps are pretty safe around 80 each under heavy load, however the VRM temps are 120deg c

Is this normal/safe if not what can i do to fix this

Currently got it clocked at 930/1100

its ok i fixed it

Reseated the card and its much better

mines up a lot higher now but i am notching the volts up slightly too

kusanagi: what i mean by reseated is that i unscrewed the large read heatsink and reapplied thermal compound and cleaned the old stuff off .

Gurusan if you can get 1ghz core so can i!
