When is Rivatuner, Powerstrip etc. going to support the 7900's?

**winston856** · 03-24-2006, 09:09 PM

Hey all, I've been looking for a tool to overclock my 7900GT, but all the major overclocking tools do not yet support (to my knowledge) the 7900 series.

So I'm stuck with coolbits, which I hate because you have to 'test changes' whether to up the clocks or lower the clocks and it's really annoying how it'll refuse changes one minute then accept them the next.....

Anybody know of something better? or know when these tools are going to support the 7900 series.

I'm running the official 84.21 drivers btw...

Powerstrip works fine with my GTX.

Powerstrip and Atitool DO work, although I would like to have a way to slow down the fan speed of my BFG 7900GTX OC, because it's running at full all the time for no reason at all using 84.25.

Rivatuner has dropped the ball big time. There has been no new updates from them since x1800 came out. I would have thought by now they would have a undate ready for 7900. I was a bit ticked they didn't update for the x1900 but I understand that they support Nvidia more so then ATI.

Besides...a couple of weeks? Is that a joke? That's how long it takes before ATI will release Cat 6.4...

Yes I am waiting for Rivatuner to support Nv 84.21 as well

**Kunaak** · 03-25-2006, 01:16 PM

Powerstrip Beta supports 7900 GTXs just fine.
get it from thier forums.

Rivatuner...
well, I about gave up on rivatuner lately.
everytime I see unwinder on the Guru3d forums, he seems mad.
guess he's getting sick of rivatuner by now or something...

**Eastcoasthandle** · 04-08-2006, 09:11 AM

**bazx** · 04-08-2006, 09:21 AM

**Dynasty** · 04-08-2006, 09:27 AM

It is more than month ago Unwinder has told that new RT will be ready minimum in two weeks.

The concrete answer to this question is not present till now. There is an Alpha version of RT which has distributed on NDA - conditions.

**althes** · 04-09-2006, 08:28 AM

If we have to wait I will ati tool will get me by

**shaolin95** · 04-09-2006, 09:00 AM

But I dont understand ATI tool cause it shows my memory as 440 or something like that, like half of what coolbit shows. Any way to get an accurate display?

**Big_Sam** · 04-09-2006, 10:55 PM

Today Unwinder has told: http://forums.overclockers.ru/viewto...470386#2470386
I shall try to translate:
90 % features which I have planned are made. It is not necessary to judge the remained volume of work only on a percentage parity, some remained items very volumetric and labour-consuming. Be patient. Process to not accelerate superfluous questions. More likely on the contrary.

Same thing happens with me, with 7900Gt

Ati tool shows 400, nVidia Display shows 800
when I changed to 450 '' '' 900

So I guess ati tool is 1/4 of actual speed displayed, which is not problem really

**MrSlacker** · 04-10-2006, 12:27 PM

I would rather wait for it and get a very good product than get it in 2 weeks and half of features dont work.
