Hello, I,m try to use ATItool 0.26, but is not working.
Any other artefact test?? Because normally my 2900 XT stay between 89 and 90, when I play, so is almost burning!!!
When I play GRID, often I can see the letters and I see some lines like flash, while I play in the race nothing happen. I think something different is whapening.
And how much artefact Can I send to RMA??

Sorry for my english :)
Thanks
 
Hi,

OK download rivatuner and use that to log your temps, then run something like the source stress test and then 3dmark and post back your results.

I ran 3dmark06, but when I play GRID, the temperature stay hotter than 3dmark. I'm post some pictures.

But I would like run test artefact, I dont know why ATI Tool no work. Stock CPU.
 
Hmm, I have the same setup as you and got around 10700 in 06.

Edit- Oops, I have a Quadcore. :)
 
90c is a bit hot. I overclock my 2900xt and get very slight sparkling at 82c or so

ati tool works fine for me. 1gb nice :)

ati tool also lets you construct a new fan table quite easily, I can send the files if you like. Email me [email protected]


11536 3dmark06 3.4ghz-e6400 2900xt 800 -900.3dr




Grid demo, 1600x1200 with everything on max details. 41fps & 81c max temp it looks like which would set the fan off to about 69% or briefly maybe 80%

Mine is the same fps, but the temperature 10 hotter :P , If I turn off the lateral coolers, 2900 go to 90 very quick, unfortunately the sound is like turbine!!!! is impossible live to run like that. Wich one is yours?? ASUS, radeon... mine is OCUK :)
 
Sapphire, not sure if ocuk sold that as their own at some point but it has the dual slot cooler but dont they all


I have four other fans on mine I could raise the speed of if there was a problem but its usually fine.
81% fan speed is loud but usually its slightly less and I use earphones so I dont hear it

Do you have the 2 year warranty like sapphire provide, its not free to rma..
