Posted 27 Dec 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: .... The current GPU-Z doesn't show VRM temps..... Thanks mate. Here is the temps on 2x6970 crossfired at a constant room temperature of 25C running at 950 core & +20 power tune on both cores. The 1st gpu core=72C, VRM=80C. 2nd gpu core=64C,VRM=77C. |

Posted 26 Dec 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: Keep an eye on VRM temperatures, they often get missed/forgotten about in the concern over Core temperature. Its the VRMs that cause 5970s incorrectly handled to burn out, as there is a very wide difference between core temps and VRM temperatures on a 5970. The 5970s have an inherent design issue that causes this, but does bare watching for in a 6970 (and upcoming 6990) until it becomes clear what the situation with the new design is. The current GPU-Z doesn't show VRM temps. Therefore, the other variables are my only guide here:(. The question is that will it be possible to run 4x6970 with stock speeds of 880? Well, you will definitely need a cool room for that and considering these temps, i dont think a room temperature will be enough. Does anyone have any heat issues with 6970 crossfire? |

Posted 26 Dec 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: i uped the power to +20% and the times reduced by about 1/3rd... from 2 and 3 min to 1:12 and 1:50 for each type of WU. I will overclock it later and see what it can do. you can see info on the powerTune here: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4061/amds-radeon-hd-6970-radeon-hd-6950/7 Are you running crossfire? I couldn't see the host in your data. I just lowered the core to 850 and memory to 685 via MSI Afterburner Beta 5 and still the temps are really high on the second one, easily exceeding 95 degree. I will check the temps tomorrow at a constant cooled temperature of 25. Hope they wont exceed 80:( |

Posted 25 Dec 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: Ok people, i got my first 6970 finally:). At +%20 power and 880 core clock, here is my host, you can check the results. I know the times are already posted by other people. You can check also mine. Hope will help. For 880 core clock, i learned that power tune should be at 0 (am i right?), however i increased the power tune to +%20 and core clock to 950. If anybody understands the power tune option, please advice me for what to do at stock core clock and 950 core to save heat. The max temp is 80C at 880 core, 85C at 950 core. (The value that writes on GPU Temp. #2 on GPU-Z) |

I meant the December 8 as I wrote it wrong eventually. Anyone with a logic could understand that. The source is very reliable and just wait for the tomorrow and you'll see. By the way, i like the drink white russian:) |

5970 Safe VRM Temperature
(Message 44408)
Posted 28 Nov 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: I am running 2 wu's on each core and I have found all these settings to be a bit nebulous as all my cards act differently. I'm far from any expert, I just experiment and check the results and I haven't had anything fail yet except 1 fan. -30C airflow!!:) Are you living in north pole? That is one favorable temperature for oc:) |

(Message 44405)
Posted 28 Nov 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: I have had two of my 5970's running @ 950 core 1000mhz memory and I am seeing temps@ VDDC 109,114,114 and it's been running for days 24/7. Would you state the working environment? My hosts work at a room cooled to continuous 25C. How did you oc those 2x5970 to 950 core? Also i checked your host and despite all that high clock, your wus take long time to complete. Are you sure running only milkyway@home? |

5970 Safe VRM Temperature
(Message 44403)
Posted 28 Nov 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: My 5970 is currently at 941MHz core clock and 1000MHz memory. I have 2x5970 running crossfirex and there are no slots between them. Therefore the first gpus vrm is this high (110). Otherwise, i would oc them more. By CCC i suggest you to reduce the memory clock to lowest official value which is 500 mhz, if you only use the 5970 for milkyway. It will save you heat and power |

Posted 28 Nov 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: Thank you Zydor. My VRMs are currently at 96 and i will push them 30-40 mhz more. Just below 105 degree. Actually, oc them to 850 which is the default 5870 clock speed and the vrm is 110 degree. I wont push it further. |

Posted 27 Nov 2010 by Arif Mert Kapicioglu Post: Hello all, I haven't been able to get a straight answer on max safe vrm temperatures for 5970s. Some say stay under 100 and some other say under 120 degree, for 24/7 usage. I want to get max out of my cards. If you have a good answer, please tell me so that i can tweak accordingly. |
