any program out yet, to overclock HD2900 Crossfire?
(yes, i know i can clock both, by clocking each card separate)
overclocking 2900 crossfire is easy. Just use Rivatuner 2.05. I thought is was difficult, but it wasn't. In the first try with Rivatuner we could get both card @ 841/952. We used GPU-Z to verify the speeds.
Foxconn has released a special tool for overclocking 2900 in crossfire, called "Quantum Force" or something.
You can get the tool and special bios here.
quantum force, is exactly the same as the guide on nordichardware..
you have to clock card number two first, then number one by move your screen cable between them..
how do you clock crossfire with rivatuner? do i have to move my screen between the cards?
dont wanna do that, cant get it working. have tried many many times now
quantum force overclock utility didn´t really help me too..
i managed to get my cards clocked to 800/900 one single time. disabling crossfire and switching desktop to different monitors really is stupid.
got my hdtv hooked up to the secondary card via hdmi and amd gpu clock tool gave me 1xxx.xx engine and 3.00 memory when i wanted to verify the clocks. didn´t really try to run at those funny clocks ;)
did anyone try the modded bios? do i need the modded bios to get that overclocking tool to work properly? i don´t wanna feed my cards 1.35v with that crappy stock heatsink.
yeah, its really stupid.. hope a program to clock HD2900 @ CF is coming soon.
about the modded bios:
For standard cooling...
Quote:
880MHz Core, 950MHz Memory, 1.25v 3D Voltage
i wanna try this, but i dont know if i have to speed up the fans on the cards..
Hmmmm... 1.25v in 3d, I'm bordering on trying this for my non-crossfire configuration. I've been waiting for a BIOS modding tool to come out but I'm getting a little impatient...
Has anyone tried it?
Yeah here are a couple examples from back in this thread. There are a couple more iirc...Quote:

I'm just talking about this bios, not that voltage. Sorry...Quote:

Here is my first try on 3dmark06 - CLICK ME
I need to mod my case a little bit and fit the watercooling and run 3dmark on 4ghz and to try to find the max of the card :) BTW, what is the safe max temperature for these cards ?
use fan 100% in ATI toll:D
is there anyone who have problems with the Catalyst 7.10 driver?
in Cs Source with HDR turned on, i get artifacts, but not with HDR off. i also get som artifact in s.t.a.l.k.e.r.
but with 7.9 driver, everything is fine
