Just tried on HD 5970. Does not recognise memory voltage and cant adjust that. Still have to use ati overvolt tool for it. :shakes:

more performance too

cant find built-in benchmark though :(

I think they are talking about Kombustor.

Still sucks, it can not OC my 6850 past 850mhz

I have to use Sapphire Trixx to get 940Mhz

See this.
To unlock voltage use this.
And you're set. :up:

When running Kombustor, it appears to only be using the primary gpu, even though I have SLI enabled.

How may I get Kombustor to utilize both cards?

Easy solution, use furmark or re roll :)

"re roll"?

EDIT:

FurMark (1.9.0) also only uses the primary unless I rename it to etqw.

You can't overclock out o the box with MSIA on AMD cards.

- Open Cfg sys of Afterbuner, fine the line " enableunofficialoverclockng" set = 1

- Open MSI Aferburner > settings > check " allow voltage control " and " apply to all GPU same settings ".

If your system lock when apply voltage.

Go in win registry: find the 2 drivers folders for your cards (0001 and 0000 ) and the line "enableULPS" an change the vaule =1 to = 0 (hexadecimal )
This setting put in extra low power mode the second gpu ( it show 000mhz ) but when you OC with MSIA, if this function is enabled, the voltage change will be apply to card who are not powered . so the lock.

Anyway the last 2 beta and this official don't allow me to OC my 5870 pass CCC limit... work fine with other old version, but now it show me 900mhz max ..( the soft don't disable this limit for an unknow reason, back to an older version )

They was a bug with SLI with Kombustor if you don't use the full screen resolution and the resolution don't match it... the driver don't understand you wil launch a 3D appliccation. try this or go back on previous version.

You also need to add the bold text to the new EULA line above unofficial overclocking.

UnofficialOverclockingEULA

I confirm that I am aware of unofficial overclocking limitations and fully understand that MSI will not provide me any support on it

Works perfectly fine here passed 900Mhz, maybe some corrupt install file ?

Thank you very much ;)

All unlocked and working now.

1 weird issue, not a real problem, but with my VRAM set to 1100, I can not OC the Core, it jumps back to 775mhz

With the VRAM at either 1099mhz or 1101mhz - it lets me set my Core to 940mhz

Strange, so have set it to 1101Mhz

OK, I set Kombustor to match my screen resolution (1920x1200), checked the Fullscreen box, and it still only uses the primary GPU.

I did manage to figure out a way to make Kombustor use both cards; rename the MSIKombustor.exe (whichever DX version I want to use) to Heaven.exe.

Thanks for the replies.

Anybody knows how to widen the scale ? I want to set 200mhz, but i can only try 405mhz, even that when i try rolls back to 500mhz.
So ATM i have to use Ati Tray tools to set clocks and afterburner to set voltage, which is weird to say the least ...

are you trying to set the idle clocks to something different?
which card are you using
