Title: Help! MSI Afterburner freezes system! Post by: paranoidx on July 02, 2011, 06:52:56 AM Had 1 5830 installed. Everything was fine. Overclocked Core to 960, and underclocked Memory to 334. Was able to get 280 Mh/s.
Installed second 5830. I am able to get them both mining, but I can no longer use Afterburner to underclock memory. As soon as I change the memory clock settings (usually from 1000 to 500) and exit afterburner (so I could reopen it and lower it down to 334) my computer will just completely lock up. Any Ideas? Oh, BTW, these are not crossfired. Also, I seem to be getting different hash speeds. The top card will only give me only about 175 mh/s while the bottom one gives me the normal 240mh/s I'm used to getting with a non overclocked card. Why is this? ??? Title: Re: Help!

Im getting just over 315mh/s from my 5830 at 1015/300. Title: Re: Help! MSI Afterburner freezes system! Post by: checkmate on July 02, 2011, 07:35:04 AM I can only set the clock to 900 max. and for the memory @ 500 minimum.
Where's the trick to unlock Afterburner? I forgot... Title: Re: Help! MSI Afterburner freezes system! Post by: paranoidx on July 03, 2011, 05:21:41 PM I can only set the clock to 900 max. and for the memory @ 500 minimum. Where's the trick to unlock Afterburner? I forgot... To enable the unofficial overclocking in this version it is necessary to edit the MSIAfterburner.cfg file located in the installation directory of AfterBurner (typically Program Files (x86) MSI Afterburner): You need to alter the following: Seek UnofficialOverclockingEULA field and add following text: I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it Set UnofficialOverclockingMode to 1 to keep PowerPlay active (may not work on old ASICs), 2 to traditionally disable PowerPlay or to 0 to temporary disable unofficial overclocking path Tried Sapphire Trixx and I'm actually liking it better than afterburner. Anyways, I'm still getting higher Mh/s with one card than the other. Top Card: 180 Mh/s Bottom Card: 280 Mh/s Does anyone know why this is? Title: Re: Help! MSI Afterburner freezes system! Post by: Roland68 on July 03, 2011, 06:06:03 PM It is well know that trixx can only overclock / overvolt first card ....

Its located at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E 968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/8259/2ndstep.png That fixed the the issue for me, had the same exact problem two days ago. |
