Need info about HD5970

[Benchmark1st]

Hi! I need some info about ASUS HD5970 vga.

How to know when temperature and voltage is too high.

Where I can get far cry 2, cod mw2 demos to game benchmarking?

Thanks

Temps will get pretty high likely, but you want it to stay below 100C.

Not sure where you can get the demos, or what the voltage limit on the card is.

This card have voltage tweak control so i can change vga voltage. I need to know symtom of chrashing (when voltage is too high). I also want to know too high temperature symtom (like artefacts or same)

Keep it under 90C, Run furmark for stability. You'll be able to notice if it's artifacting and will crash if it's unstable prompting a reboot. Just MAKE SURE to turn the fans up to 75%+ when going with higher voltage. You don't want to destroy your card

How to turn up fan speed?

I understand the want to oc, but really maybe you should let it be (specially considering the fan question). There really is no need to oc your vid card and risk it. Or at the very least start reading all tutorials on how to overlock.

I personally found cpu's to be very easy, and really even vid. cards arn't bad but in my exp they tend to be more picky. Not to mention they sound like damn vacuum cleaners when you have to cranck the fan speed up lol.

Well I need to write review I have some experence in overclocking. I haven't hd 5970 but my one skype friend haves. So I am asking these questions because my friend isn't good in oc, and I don't want do anything bad

Thanks.

Me old vga was the best. If clock are too high - ati ccc don't send.

Now am intrested in fan speed. I want to know default asus hd 5970 cooler max posibilities. So how many more speed I can give to him.

Have a read of this first then decide if you wish to go ahead.
