7950 memory speed

My overclock is done in afterburner, and I haven't activated/used ccc overclocking.

My vcore is set to 1.10v and the overclock is 1100 on core and 1500 on memory.

When i'm home from work I will go back to stock and see what it does, is it likely to be the overclock at fault?
 
Ok from a cold boot this is how the temps and vddc current look its high to begin with and is getting higher as I leave the machine on.....

will leave it for 10 mins to see what it gets to and post back. After that I'll revert to stock clocks and see what happens..
 
Yeah thats kewl see your vddc is now 0.8v.
I know multimonitor forces higher clocks but with multi monitors it should be 0.95v not the 1.10v you were getting.

I think nightstalker is right that maybe due to the memory clock its forced the max v-core even at idle. Way to test run a stock factory setting with the 2 screens then just up the memory and see what vddc changes to.
What I did with trixx and the 6950 and 7850 was have presets saved 1 for stanadard clocks, 2 for oc clocks etc. Then just switch between each one depending on what I need.
 
Yeah I think I will. I'm debating whether or not to just run single monitor as the temps are far better in game and at idle.

I only use the 2nd monitor for a few things which I could always do without.. hmm decisions decisions..

Anyway just want to say thanks to all who have posted in this thread, really appreciate everyone's help :)
 
This may be slightly off field, when testing the GPU's idle state make sure you don't have any web browsers open, or any software running.

The GPU these days is used as an accelerator, things running in your web browser do fire up the GPU, especially YouTube, but also some embedded falsh adverts.
