CCC profiles

[fishboyuk]

How do I get my CCC profile to run on startup?

It doesn't at the moment, I have to manually start it and I can't find an option to click. Placing the shortcut in the startup folder hasn't worked.

I'm using it to run my memory clock at constant full speed otherwise I get all sorts of graphical anomalies on the desktop and random crashes when it runs 2D clocks.

This gen of AMD cards are actually ***** aren't they...


Can I set my idle clocks higher in afterburner? I can't figure out how to do it.

I have a Sapphire 7950 OC and I get the same graphical issues and random crashes on 2D clocks too. Everything was perfect until I swapped out my Sapphire 6950 for the 7950 and that's when the problems started. I can run any game on more-or-less max settings for hours on end and it never has a problem. It only has issues when I'm running in 2D.

I would love to RMA it but I am concerned that OcUK will be unable to reproduce the issues and I will end up getting it back. So I will end up paying for p&p both ways and still have nothing to show for it.


I just create a preset in CCC and edit the resulting xml file in Notepad to set the required clocks/voltage. Then I click on it (in the list of CCC presets) and I can see the settings (from the preset) displayed in the Overdrive area of the CCC. It uses the preset automatically at startup after that.

Exactly the same here. Games run perfectly for hours of play and all benchmarks run absolutely fine.

It's like AMD released a good card with a power saving feature that essentially breaks it. Maybe a bios update would cure it?

I've done all that in CCC, adjusted all the settings, saved it etc. but my profile doesn't load automatically on startup and I have to click on the preset in the start menu. I'm also using MSI AB to adjust the core voltage.

Install afterburner go in settings/advanced an tick " allow constant volt" that will sort any problems you with stability, im running CCC 12.8 Oc'd aswell.

Thanks, i'll give it a whirl

Have you had to adjust your idle clocks at all?

Before i used to get graphical problems using any thing above CCC 12.3 when Oc no matter how small the clock was.
I used to get problems also with my web browser flickering theres various threads on here with others having the same problem.

Now i have no problems at all with a rather nice little Oc, running CCC 12.8 and after burner.
In after burner do as i said in a earlier post, that will sort the problem with the volt changing when going in to idle mode.
In your web browser go in options/advanced an turn off "hard ware acceleration" that will solve any problems with any browser problems.

I tried all those things separately and together and they didn't stop the flickering at the bottom of the browser. The only thing that did help was changing my 2D idle memory clock to the same as my 3D clock (1400) from 300.

Ive just checked my options in my browser an mine is enabled, has been since Saturday (new build) so im assuming that the allow constant volt in MSI after burner has sorted that problem,4-5 days an no problems.
The volt on my Sapphire 7850 is still set to stock been playing bf3,ds2,sleeping dogs for hours on end with no problems at all.

Hope that helps

I've still been getting the occasional problem when watching youtube videos, the screen will suddenly get a mess of horizontal green and red lines and can only sort it by resetting. I forgot to tick the force constant voltage option so hopefully that will cure it.

I still don't understand why AMD would try and sell a product on the back of it being low voltage and power saving when it simply doesn't work.

Did they not test these products before they released them?

Starting to wish I went over to the green team.

I've been with AMD since my 6600gt
