Asus Smart Doctor ??

[Franco_cov]

Guys,

I have recently purchased from ocuk 2x HD4890 from Asus with the voltage tweak, now from what I have seen you just slide the buttons to the left to overclock, fine. But I have also noticed that when I reboot and the software loads up itself it resets to the default speeds ??

Has anyone else had this problem?

I am about to put them both on liquid cooling and wanted to at least get up to the 1000/4000 clock as i am sure these cards can achieve under liquid but have the following issues: -

1> Obviously ever time i reboot it defaults the speeds
2> Is there any software that I can flash the card to remain at the speed after testing it first with smart doctor
3> Would the overclock remain if I uninstalled the smart doctor?

As you can see I want to overclock the card but dont want to mess with software etc everytime I either reboot or re-install my OS

Thankyou in advance for reading and await your help

in your toolbar ther'l be the smart doctor icon .. right click, up up to settings (and on mine theres only 1 option) and click use clock settings after reboot...

- This is on a 4850 on vista


EDIT- if you cant find that when its open up, right click on the area around the clock settings, and then go into settings..

Hmmm.....

Ok I found it as you described, thanks.

However I have just noticed something that concerns me. I have ran GPUZ and basically just watched it for a few mins and the core clock goes 900mhz -- 240mhz -- 900mhz every other second?? is this normal behavour ?

And like I said in my previous posts and suggestions on how I can flash the cards so that they run the speeds I have tested using smart doctor so that I dont have to rely on software ?

erm im no expert but the gpuz reading could either be an error or some kind of pwer saving thingy

and flashing is out of my depth.. but frankly i find the software of more sue than nuisance..
