Good Speeds on Sapphire 5830's 311.4MHash/s

[aceman1011]

I get 325 mh/s with only 850 clock speed. Running poclbm.

Wow. Nice.

These ATI tray tools where do you find them? Is it better or about as good as Trixx?

So my rigs are very clean, nothing but Win7x64, ATI drivers and AMD APP SDK Runtime. Then I turn off UAC and install ATI Tray Tools. Then make sure on the Hardware Overclocking you turn up the voltage to 1.163 and hit apply before you start moving the sliders. On my HD 5830 I am stable at Core 1001 and Mem Speed 300, temps stay around 70 to 72 but I do have moderate airflow.

After you get it all dial in and stable you should make a profile by checking the "Include clocks in profile" then clicking save icon. You can then select that profile to load on startup. With this method I am getting 303 MHash/s running Phoenix/phatk with these options:
-k phatk PLATFORM=0 DEVICE=1 VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false WORKSIZE=128 AGGRESSION=12

I know other people are getting more, but this is what is stable and has the most yield for me at this time. (And I am way happy with 303 MHash/s as compared to my 6970s which cost like >$200 over the 5830s and barely get 78 MHash/s more...)

The question I have is does anyone know of a OC'ing tool that will handle multiple GPUs?

YES!!! why is it so hard to find a simple concise answer about over clocking multi gpu WITHOUT crossfire?

Does MSI do it ?, I know trixx dosent cause Im running it

MSI seems to have a feature when pressing the "Settings" button that allows you to "Synchronize setting for similar graphics processors". My issue is that I am working with multiple type GPUs in one rig and need to OC/change the settings for the 2nd GPU or 3rd GPU if I decide to go crazy with an extender cable to bring out the PCI-E x1 slot. Not sure if I want to go down that road yet for the 3rd. I'm trying to see how much savings I would have just running multiple rigs vs. trying to pack more GPU then two on 1 motherboard. Stability and cooling comes into play, and having to get 1000 Watt power supplies. I guess I'm just old school and like my systems in closed cases with mega fans for air flow. As long as I keep them under 75 to 78 degrees, I think I'm good.

So any OC'ers out there know of this magical tool we seek?

HELP US!!!! might be worth some coinage!!!!!!

I get 325 mh/s with only 850 clock speed. Running poclbm.

How can that be possible? I'm hitting only 270mh with poclbm on both my 5830s clocked at 900 core, using Afterburner to overclock but anything past 900 (Enabling 'unofficial' overclocking in the config) puts the system in an endless BSOD loop.

Am using these for what it's worth: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/1gb-xfx-hd-5830-pci-e-21-%28x16%29-4500mhz-gddr5-gpu-840mhz-1120-cores-dp-2xdl-dvi-i-hdmi

[Fakeman]

Must be a different card than the 5830. Maybe 5850?

[aceman1011]

Sapphire 5830s. I do have PCIE 2.0 2x 16 slots with out extenders. I'm using XP and CCC with the stream kernel analyzer. I can show you my script if you would like.

[Fakeman]

Yes, please explain further.

[aceman1011]

Ok, I'll post the script in a minute.

[PC Surgeon]

From what research I've done in order to overclock multiple GPU's (different clocks, some get better than others) you will have to flash each BIOS individually with the settings desired.

Might want to read up here: http://benchmarks.gr/676/radeon-bios-editor-v127/ and http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/overclocking/vidcard/154

I used to run two seperate boards with both 1x 5830 and got around 290M/s each.

Now, I tied them together with crossfire on a single board, getting 234M/s max on each. Which is bad.

I hope to put in some VGA-dummy-plugs tomorrow, maybe the crossfire is messing things up.

I am in this same situation 2x 5830's one at 304 mh the other at 260 mh they are nto crossfired and I can only get the OC setting to apply to one of the cards

Perhaps we should throw together a bounty for a detailed explanation on how to overclock multiple cards on the same board without crossfire. I only have 2x 5830's but i would thrown in .5 btc.





dumb Question but, If i were to attach the crossfire cable, and then disable it within CCC, and load trixx to OC both? would the cable merely being their aide in the duplication of the settings? or would be disabling crossfire make the cable and setting adjustments pointless?

[namley]

If your only using 2 Cards, Use ATI Tray Tools.

It allows you to apply requested clocks to 2 Cards, I have not tested it with anymore.

xFire is a bad idea, you loose precious Mhash's

[sang]

Guys... MSI Afterburner supports 2+ cards.

In the settings you can select the card to adjust.

And if all else fails, set the clocks manually with AMD GPU Clock Tool (this is what I use when my other tools fail).

What the hell are you talking about? with MSI afterburner you can easily select exactly which GPU you want to adjust, from the settings menu. There's no need to use "synchronize settings for similar gpu".

in the Performance tab, first option.. overdrive or something like that
