Title: 5830 throttling
Post by: Stizuner on July 17, 2011, 06:17:53 PM
Hi, does anyone know how to stop 5830's from throttling?

I read something about adjusting 5% powertune in CCC but no power options are available to me in CCC.

Thanks

try AMD GPU clock tool.
and try not to overheat your card(s).
stay in the 70-80°C area.

You could download MSI Afterburner, install it. Make sure it is not running at the time of editing the cfg.

Go to MSI Afterburner's installation folder open MSIAfterburner.cfg with notepad edit/add below code.

Code:
UnofficialOverclockingEULA	= I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it
UnofficialOverclockingMode = 2

Run MSIAfterburner, set Core and Mem one MHz higher for each. This will stop the throttling. Set to startup with windows.
