Title: Can anyone explain to a new guy? Post by: gochk on July 02, 2011, 05:17:20 AM Running btc on Ubuntu 10.10 with 1 6970. From my Ubuntu Software Center, it looks like lm-sensors and libsensors4 installed.
I see 2 different temperatures but not sure which is what from the terminal. When I type sensors on the terminal, i get 26 C when it's mining. However, on another terminal with the code that executes when boot up, gnome-terminal -x watch -n 1 aticonfig --adapter=all --odgt --odgc the temp is 90 - 92 C. I know sensors command is from lm-sensors. But where's the 2nd command coming from? I am very concern my GPU will overheat and it'll be great if someone can tell me the difference in the 2 temp. thks Title: Re: Can anyone explain to a new guy?

The aticonfig command is the ati command to check/change the settings of the videocard. Check your speed clock with aticonfig --adapter=all --odgc and try to downclock it if is overclocked with a new cpuspeed and memspeed aticonfig --adapter=[number of your card 0 or 1] --setclock=cpuspeed,memspeed you can set memory to 300-400MHz max E.

But From the --odgc it looks like it's clocked to max? Title: Re: Can anyone explain to a new guy?
