atitool 25 beta 9

[flisko]

Where can i get this tool,i need it .I wanna burn my x1800xt

[HousERaT]

W1zzard over at techpowerup.com hasn't released it yet for public consumption. You'll either have to get it directly from him or from someone else he's given it to.

ATI Tool Beta 9 is now up for download on the techpowerup forums!

Problems with changing clock speeds on X1300pro....

[cantankerous]

Anyone tried this yet? On Artifact scanning I get a border around the image of pure yellow the second I click on start for artifact scanning. Very wierd pattern to say the least. If I choose old (more compatible?) scanning method I get zero artifacts even after 35 mins. No clue why the two modes are so varied. I hope someone else gets the yellow border around the box if they DON'T choose old compatibility method so I don't feel so alone here. What exactly is the difference between the two modes that varies so much in the way it scans?

On a sad note as well voltage changes are not applied to the profile on startup so we still have to manually set this each time however clocks sticked.

[deathman20]

It only supports X1800's so far ant the artifact tool doesn't work yet.

Core voltage works but memory voltage doesn't yet, it resets to 1.8V BE WARNED. Profiles work only for clocks so far, next version will have voltages applied per profile.

[cantankerous]

I thought artifact scanning DID work just perhaps not 100% as of now??

Deathman20 if you use Artifact scanner WITHOUT selecting old (more compabile?) method do you get yellow boxes surrounding the 3D image? Just want to make sure I'm on the same page as everyone else so i don't further worry about this card. I know I'm a pain in the ass but I do appreciate it dude. Thanks.

[deathman20]

I just got artifacts in the screen on mine currently even though it doesn't say theres errors it beeps as it is having errors. Havn't played around with it alot but going to check it out here in a few seconds again.

[deathman20]

Oh BTW it doesn't matter if its normal or the old more compatible mode is selected. Its still artifacts either way. W1zzard mentioned it might not work yet.

And I don't get no yellow boarder around the window either.

Set my voltages and frequencies exactly to what I wanted them to on boot up

Great job w1zzard. Now I don't have to use that crappy ATi internal tool

got that too :| havent tried anything else yet as Ive just downloaded it :p
will report later

Nevermind. My computer locks up at boot up with ATITool, so I am guessing that its not setting the correct voltage.

Although I do remember it working after restarting... meh. I need more rest.

[deathman20]

Ok, when playing with ATITool, can you reach the same clocks that you reached with OC at the same voltages (mind you OC reads ~.025V over what actual voltage is).

[deathman20]

Did a test quick...

OC
627.5/747
1.25V/1.95/1.95

Works fine in games and has past 3DMark 03 and 05 tests serveral times
ATITool reads voltages as 1.225/1.938/1.938.
DMM Voltages 1.213/1.938/1.938

Doing a restart now to eliminate test varables

ATITool
625/650 is the higest I can go with out it crashing at least on the memory. 655 crashes the computer.

Now this is the same voltages OC got but can't achieve, let alone its the exact same voltages. Hmmmm

Edit: running 05 to confirm what the hecks really going on.

[deathman20]

Ummm discovery... big one

OC tool
625/750 3D Mark 05 8710

ATItool
625/650 3D Mark 05 9083!!!!

[Gavinni]

Same here
OC Tool
630/740 = 8230

ATI Tool
620/675 = 8427

[cantankerous]

Yea I noticed much better scores with ATItool as well. I thought it was jut me but I guess not! Not bad!

Yea for me it was the same. I got artifacts the second I started the checker and the artifacts came up as solid yellow blocks surrounding the entire fuzzy brown thing. That was what I meant about yellow border, it is what would be known as HUGE clusters of artifacts. The bottom however said no errors found and my system didn't beep either. If I change the mode to old (more compatible?) mode the clusters of yellow artifacts boxes totally disappears and again it says no errors found as well as no beep is audible. I can't wait till X1800 artifact testing gets fully completed as I am dying to see if ATItool will pick up what I see in FEAR with my card with those quick flashing black squares here and there. If ATItool shows my card is fine then I will stop freaking out about this. Setting volts and clocks at startup would be dope too. Good job W1zzard, thanks.

BTW, you mentioned there is no difference on the mode selected in general? Meaning if you truly do have a bad card/overclock you should and will see errors on both methods? Why have both then? Anyone know the difference between the modes on how they test?

[cantankerous]

You too have the huge clusters of artifacts surrounding the fuzzy brown image? What card you running? Thanks.

[flisko]

Iget yelow in artifact scan 2,but have another problem,voltage of memory show me 2.097v but on OC tool show me 1.8v.

I got an X1800XT and my voltage is at 1.275/2.097/2.097 according to ATITools

update: set 600/700 in ATITools, run 3D05 and I got weird black screen, wth, I benched at 700/820 by OC no problems !!!

[ahmad]

I think you guys are not using the OC tool correctly, hence the discrepencies.

If you have CLI running in the background, it WILL change your clocks to whatever you had them in CCC. Also, after some playing, my 2d/3d option became grayed out and now I can use it without shutting down CLI (still maintains my OC). Only use 2d OC.

But yeah, results have been pretty much the same...

[ahmad]

This is what I mean.

[deathman20]

The OC tool loosens your ram timings up considerably allowing for higher OC's on the ram but at a cost.

There is much to be learned with the real deal. And it will take some time to get our OC's figured out again at least on the memory side. OC is going into the recycling bin very soon on my computer since it has of no value to me anymore.
