The ATI Radeon 5XXX Thread

Guys, sorry for the lame question, does eyefinity support monitors of different resolution ? I need to couple a 22´with a 24´. I am not planing on gaming on these, they are just for work

u can use different monitors with different resolutions.
however, for eyefinity you need the same set res, as 1920x1080x3.
but for office work, without eyefinity, 3 screens works different resolution to my knowledge.

Hi iandh, im planning to buy a PC-A05N but my guess is seeing your picture that a 5870X2 wont fit.
What do you think guys?

Here's a pic of it crammed into an A05B

That is a standard 5870 not the 5870x2.

Now that is a 5870x2

Easily identified in profile by the 4 slits on the side, and obvoiusly the bottom view gives it all away

[billdavis]

did the new drivers help cross fire results???

If you don't plan on gaming across both, then yeah, they'll work just fine. That's what I'm using right now, lol. It's quite nice by the way, go go go!

I know and i also know that the 5870X2 is gonna be longer.
So my question was that it will also fit in a PC-A05?

Guys anyone has tried the newer drivers from amd website dated 10/13/2009? Did anyone of you notest any difference? its only for series 5000 graphics

[j33pownr]

You will only loose the upper and maybe the middle hard drive bays with a little modding. But if you got the cash for an 5870x2 then you can get an ssd and put it somewhere else.

Yea, it made3K increase in vantage.

[trt740]

has voltage control and much higher over clocking setting in ccc and afterburner.

3K of GPU score? How did ya? Perhaps i'm limited my CPU, don't know.

My GPU score difference is:

before with 1st release recomended AMD drivers:
GPU SCORE = 15918

Now Lastest recomended drivers dated 10/13/2009
GPU SCORE = 16028.

My system is:
Asus M4A79 Deluxe
AMD PHENOM II 940 @ 3.6
GSkill TT @ 1066
XFX 5870 @ completely stock

My results are almost exactly the same....~16,000 (3D Vantage-performance settings)....same score from several reviewers (w/ i7) of the 5870, so I think this score is normal, and not cpu limited for a gpu @ stock. And the so called new driver did not jump Vantage by 3K, as indicated above.

[NanoBullet]

Thanks mate, i was thinking to me that 3k was to big to be true, but thanks for your confirmation!

[mR Yellow]

My score also jumped by 3k atleast. For some reason i was only getting GPU score of 12000 but the new drivers sorted that out.

Can anyone VERIFY this?
5770 voltmod
According to this:http://www.st.com/stonline/products/...341/l6788a.pdf
and
and assuming that pins count from the arrow right?
This is only if someone,after support for this chip exists,still needs more than 1,35 volts,this chip can output!
The pin on the yellow circle would be the FB pin,the one to solder a resistor or to find a connected resistor with RIGHT guys?Not absolutely sure!Anyone brave enough to try this out?
EDIT:After reading more carefully the pins description,i got confused with the the pins 19-and 20.Anyone can help???

Good news on that, we're internally testing MSI Afterburner v1.3.0 with L6788A support (up to 1.35V on 5770 allowed). Should be released soon.

Very interesting read. I like how nVidia criticized INTELS Larrabee but they are doing exactly the same as INTEL did. How ironic.

This SOAP box is becoming epic.

[reon749]

Is there somebody know how to unlock the limit clock of 5770 ??
This is msi 5770 Bios.
MSI 5770(Juniper).bin
Is there anyone can help me unlock it?
Thank you very much.

Can some please post or PM me the BIOS for a Sapphire 5870, I need some backup ones, GPU-z wouldnt let me save them before I flashed my card to the Asus BIOS, give me a hand, please

[Leeghoofd]

Where on earth do I find a decent trifire driver for these cards ? seems 8.14.10.700 is the only sort of decent version working, yet I can't find it anywhere ...

If anyone wants so read my test of HD 5850 and HD 5870 (CF combination, games, 3dmark,...) you can find it here: http://www.oc-lab.si/test.php?t=110

It is in Slovenian language, but pictures and numbers are universal anyway
