Hello,

I have a 5850 and I remember that a few months back I was able to overvolt it just using Trixx, but I don't seem able to do it anymore (new version does not allow it)
and no, I don't want to flash it.
MSI afterburner trick for the allow unofficial overclocking is not working as well.

Any tips? (links for a version of trixx that works are very, VERY appreciated)

Cheers, and thanks guys.

P.S.: Using the ATI HD 5850 XFX
P.S.2: Windows box.

Latest version of trixx seem to have "synchronize multiple GPU's
 on by default. It prevents overvolting in some cases. Unclench that option, close the app and restart it.

Going to have to assume they removed support for that circuitry. Is it a Sapphire Card? You might also be able to do teh same thing through CGMINER.

It is a XFX card, care to explain a little bit better what you meant by "removed the circuitry"?

Removed support for that specific voltage controller is what I meant, sorry about that.

Some versions of Trixx like 3.06 had locked voltages, you can find older versions like 3.05 on their website.

As well MSI afterburner with the cfg mod might do it for you XFX as well.

Not all XFX cards have had voltage control that could be software adjusted.


Can't think of other approaches at the moment.

Yeah, I used to use 3.0.6 trixx to do that.
Problem is, I can't seem to be able to find the software lol
Sapphire took it out of the website.
