Temperature danger threshold...

merlinxi · Jan 9, 2006, 04:40 AM

So I know.

What should the video cards temperature never reach? What should the max it should ever get in LOAD temp?

For the X1800 XT?

Thanks

Worry at 90C, freak out at 100C.

I start worrying when anything hits over 60c.
Anything under that I would say safe but ATI cards have a very high temperature threshhold so I wouldn't really worry unless you start seeing artifacfts and lockups.

I guess ATI tool is screwed up because if I overclock with it. My card freezes (I overclock it to what ATI overdrive does for testing) ATI overdrive it runs fine and no articfacting or freezing. But with ATI tool it just lockups the system and artificats. Weird. Anything else out there?

Okay this is weird.

My Video card is stable now???

I overclocked it just above extreme speeds and now it's running super stable at 56-57 fps on this first screen of 3D mark. My fan is always 100% so as to avoid overheating, just noisy lol. This is really interesting...

Questions actually.

Can the card I have SLI bridge with a second of equal? So can I use two x1800 Xts??? Cause if I can OMG lol

As far as I know, ATITool does not support the X18 lineup of cards due to the fact that it hasen't been updated in quite some time.

merlinxi · Jan 9, 2006, 07:20 PM

Anything that does?

TrevGlas · Jan 9, 2006, 07:52 PM

New version of ATI Tray tools does

Latest ATI Tool beta does for sure, supports amperage monitoring fan control OC'ing etc. it just acts weird.

Yeah like if I overclock the card to 701/800 it just artificats and dies down and restarts the computer, but if ATI overdr

Yeah like if I overlclock the card to 690/800 it artifacts and the computer restars. If I do it in ATI overdrvie it doesn't it makes no sense

What is the latest version of ATi tray tools?

Actually when I try to apply the overclock it justdefaults back.

H3X4D3C1M4L · Jan 10, 2006, 01:14 AM

Have you tried the specific 1800XT OC'ing tool that was posted here or the newest ATI Tool Beta (0.25 beta 11 I think)

merlinxi · Jan 10, 2006, 01:28 AM

Ati tool screws up my card when I try to overclock it's very weird, and what offical OC tool?

H3X4D3C1M4L · Jan 10, 2006, 08:40 PM

There was a thread not too far down that read "X1800 overclocking tool" or somesuch... can't remember the exact name. You might try searching for X1800 overclocking
