ATI 4850/4870 voltmod thread

[dnottis]

dnottis - you've said "Using Cats 8.8 Furmark doesnt push the VRM past 85deg c." Have you renamed furmark.exe to something else? YOu do know that new driver cuts the load on Furmark for roughly 40-50% ?

Doesn't matter anymore. As of yesterday the card will no longer boot, just up and died one morning. SDS (sudden death syndrome) hits another HD4870. These cards are garbage, first one was bad off the bat, this one died 3 weeks later.

I'm going to an Nvidia GTX 260 this time.
