Hi there everybody
So I recently got my hands on a second hand Club3d 7950 Kingpin Edition.
I've read reviews online and watched many videos of people overclocking this card right upto to the max limits.
I can set the core to 1175mhz at 1.125V which is nearly topped out - that's imo is fine thermals are great too not exceeding 70 degrees core and vrm as well.
But my memory speeds which are at a default of 1250, if I just bump it even 50mhz benchmarks like Valley refuse to run forcing me to force restart. I have read people overclocking memory to 1500mhz as standard with extremes being 1800+
What is going on?
My GDDR5 is Elpida and the gpu has a 384 bus width, I even tried OC the mem voltage by 50mV still no luck.
Lastly I am running windows 10 with latest amd drivers the card appears on gpu-z as a r9 200 series card hmmm?
Thanks for the help
