Title: question on running 5850 and 5830 together Post by: nazgulnarsil on June 11, 2011, 01:32:37 AM so I dont have a resister to make the computer think 2 monitors are attached yet. (windows 7)
I am now up and running with guiminer at default clocks. How do I control clocks/fans of each card independently? I've heard that msi afterburner controls the card that is currently plugged in. So I should find a stable OC on the first card then switch to the other card and repeat? How does that work once I have a dummy plug?

I want to up the fan speed on the hotter card and I cant. Title: Re: question on running 5850 and 5830 together Post by: CentroniX on June 11, 2011, 01:39:54 AM MSI Afterburner allows you to select each card, and make changes to that particular card independent of other card's settings.
I'm running a 5850 and 5830 on Win 7 64 bit and have no problems setting each card independently. You will need either a dummy plug, run both cards in crossfire, or connect both cards to a monitor in order for Windows to recognize each card as active. On my particular miner with this setup, I have one monitor with both VGA and DVI inputs, and just have each card going to each input. Hope that helps. cent Title: Re: question on running 5850 and 5830 together Post by: nazgulnarsil on June 11, 2011, 01:46:09 AM OH its in the settings. Thank you!
Cant seem to change the settings on the 5850 except fan speed. Core and memory sliders show no value. GPU-Z shows stock values. edit: I adjusted the 5850 with sapphire trixx. both cards running 925. think I'll leave it here for stability test before pushing any further. 600Mh woohoo! |
