To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your Vega 64.

Hang on that's me doh.......

Lol, we literally made the same joke within seconds of each other.

I've got an interesting video uploading. Apparently my GPU is now doing 1792mhz (clock set to 1752mhz) but only in game menus and desktop when recording

Does your GPU LED and load remain 100% even when you quit out game? If so you have the Recording bug

That's because both are less demanding and so the card can clock itself higher. Same thing happens with my card and when doing certain types of GPU bound video rendering.

it was under full load because i had the game running in the background, but when i exited and stopped the recording, clocks went down to like 100mhz the norm and just had the one light activity on the gpu.

I've bumped my voltage up to 1230mhz and set 1752mhz, just done some gaming and its locked at 1750mhz ish

higher than what is set in wattman? is that entirely safe to be overclocking itself lmao.

 

[kundi]

Yes, higher than Wattman. I don't know if it's safe but this is the way the card behaves since 17.8.2. If it has the voltage, heat isn't limiting it, and the load is right, it will boost higher than p7. You can see it in AMDMatt's videos from the past few weeks, the card in menus will clock higher than his p7. I had a theory that this is one of the reasons some AIO cards were crashing.

 

[TonyTurbo78]

interesting kundi.

Here's that video anyway, got a good solid 1750mhz overclock now

 

[LtMatt]

Very nice that, you get a higher core clock than i do now. Mine sits a bit lower, i guess due to my temps being in the low 60's.

Nice!

Do you remember how your Air 64 card clocked/benched on the stock bios before your put it under water? My Air 64 arrived yesterday, however, Newegg sent me a used card. Not sure how they thought they could get away with that, but since it was open I figured I'd test it before the replacement(hopefully new for real this time) arrives later this week. My EK block should arrive by Friday so I'm trying to gauge if I should take the replacement card.

 

[Nemesis.ie]

I'm looking to go with an Eiswolf on the AC card for simplicity. They are supposed to ship near the end of the month, maybe I'll even have the LC card by then.

What ya tawkin' bout You have been hitting 1800mhz old chap

I'll be totally honest, I'm not really sure because I was messing with the air 64 when the drivers had the reporting errors, so I've no idea what it was running. I think I was getting 1700mhz at 1060mv, but we all now know on those early drivers, those kind of numbers were complete rubbish and couldn't be trusted.

A used card?? unreal, should have stuck with OCUK nothing but the best here

Will look forward to your thoughts on the EK goodies, I definitely think Vega turns into a beast in a custom loop.

 

[opethdisciple]

Where are the 3rd party cards?

 

[LtMatt]

At that same level i get slightly lower core clocks.

 

[heartburnron]

Awesome stuff Tony. Have to admit to being a little bit jealous. I don't have Battlefield installed to see what I get but I do have access to it via Origin Access - must make some space to download it...

 

[TNA]

lol, you quoted and welcomed yourself

Good luck with the new card Kaap. Hope you got one without any of the issues that some of the other AIO's had.

It is a very poor overclocker on the core but the memory can do 1080.
