when my 6950 reachs 86c it crashes what ever is making it go that high examples being furmark cod waw (when messing around with flamethrower lol)...... it seems to crash weather its over clocked or on the 6970 bios or with both... currently testing if it will crash at 85c stock everything EDIT: it didnt crash i only got it to 86c by manually turnning down the fan at stock i find it hard to get to 86c without messing with the fan lol.. there is no reason for it to crash at 86c my 4670, 9800gt, gtx260, 5870 got well above 86c and never crashed.. can anyone help?
if it helps i have a corsair 850w psu core i7920@4ghz 6gig ocz ram and a haf x case
tried a few new things messing with clock speeds and stuff anything above normal 6950 speeds @85-88c the card will crash though at 6950 speeds and 6970 bios its fine.
a message pops up after it recovers saying "the graphics card driver has a problem and has recoverd" or somthing like that
also i have been doing some test just to see what happens and it seems to me that only when i chose to increase my memory speed then it crashes
880mhzcore bios mod 6970 1250mhz ram runs fine no crash
880mhzcore bios mod 6970 1375mhz ram crash @ 85-88c
stock everything no crash
it seems the power tune makes no difference in preformance or crashing for me
please help if you can
