Title: ATI underclocking
Post by: graywilde on May 01, 2011, 11:11:38 PM
Apparently this is a feature with AMD/ATI cards...  When they aren't processing 3d stuff they underclock to save power.  Well, as you can imagine this is a problem when it comes to mining.  When it happens my mining gets cut in half and the only way I can see to fix it is to restart.  Is there a better day to deal with it?  Having a way to disable it would be nice but i can't find an option for it in their control center.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Nevermind,  I found an answer to my problem.  ATI tray tools can override AMD overdrive.  I set the clocks back to their defaults and i'm back to mining at full speed.  A mod can delete this thread i guess.
