Radeon HD 78xx series owners club.

[Ashratt]

does my 7870 with the tahiti-le chip count?  :P

[carolkarine]

gigabyte 7870 at 1250 mhz.

[Jack.EXE]

guess I'm part of the club now...

 

(Nevermind, Sent it back because i'm holding out for next gen)

[LapFox]

XFX 7870 with Arctic Mono installed. OC'ed to 1151MHz with 59C max with MSI kombuster. Fan is absolutely silent, never goes above 40%.

DCU2 v2 7850 here. planning to get another soonish. got super dooper unlucky with my chip. stable at around 1ghz max otherwise i get freezes and BSOD

[Minjon]

Gigabyte 7870 OC @ 1100 / 1200, man this cooler is awesome but i can't OC this any further then the stock one and i do not want to touch the voltage.

[Savagejoe]

I have dual MSI 7850 OC editions at stock clocks.....It's the best price-to-performance ratio since I believe they can beat most single 7970's. My PC does freeze randomly at times when it's in crossfire mode but there's too many variables with my PC to narrow down the culprit to that issue & I've given up on figuring out what the real problem is.

[KneesWeak]

I have a sapphire 7870 oc edition, little hot ~69C.  Anyway AMD is driving me crazy...they moved up to catalyst 13.6 beta drives but the latest official drive still remains as 13.4.  

[Hadouken434]

MSI R7850 twin frozr 3 OC edition then OC'd to 965/1250, not too conifident on the whole OC'ing thing just yet, this card is a replacement for a faulty 6870 i got (which burned out, no OC.... 4 months later...) 

 

Any of us guys (and possibly girls) running or ran eyefinity? just got myself 3 new monitors (waiting on the bloody active mini DP to dvi aint i -_- ) and just curious on the best way to set it all up, software wise, for everyday use and gaming.

Mine is coming in a few days. Cant wait.

[Iceman_X]

Sapphire 7870 XT :)

the way for OC i use is...

 

step 1 - rise the gpu number at max, and use the stock memory number

 

step 1.1 - use "-10 gpu" runs until all work well

 

 

step 2 - rise the memory number at max and use stock gpu number

 

step 2.1 - use "-30 memory" runs until all work well

 

 

step 3 - use the OC numbers on gpu and memory and start the benchmarks

 

 

for the 3x1080p you can use DP - HDMI - DVI

 

and the CCC software do the rest

 

 

if you have 3x1440p you will need DP - DP - DVI

Hey cheers, its mainly not knowing what im doing coupled with not being able to afford the replacement if i get it wrong haha

 

and with the eyefinity i know how to set it all up (waiting for the mini DP adapter to be delivered) i meant how to customize the desktop, i had a go at using hydravision and the rest of the goodies included with that on a tester 2 screen EF group i made and couldnt work out how to use it properly, had a little scan round for a thread explaining this but had no luck :( just wanting to have separate 'desktops' for each monitor like you get from extending onto the 2 screens but then i want to be able to play games (obviously, why else would a gamer get 3 monitors lol)

 

im just stuck and reading through endless AMD blurb is hurting my head 

[7850OC]

don't worry, all will work fine (autodetect monitor will do all the work easy)

 

i use a Sapphire Radeon HD 7850 OC 2GB to (very similar to you card)  ^_^

 

and i use this numbers 1050 gpu and 1330 memory

 

the 7000 series is a very strong and safe card   :wub:

[MsTrMind]

7870 ghz from sapphire, oc'ed to 1190 (just cant get 1200) core and 1450 mem. Temps during stresstest were 65ºC :)

[AaronFPS]

Sapphire 7850 owner here

[Gugos]

i've got 2 xfx 7850 dd, one is a black edition and the other one isn't, they are running both at 1000/5400 and in these really hot days (30-35°C) they reach almost 78-79°C in heavy games such as crysis 3 or, with not a fair payback in terms of graphic quality, remember me (damn porting)

here's a photo of the set up

[NeutronGTX]

Hi does anyone have any suggestions about an aftermarket cooler for my powercolor hd 7870 xt?

[MPX309]

7870, haven't started OC'ing yet. . . .Hitting about 28/30 idle and 60/65 under load atm.

[Hadouken434]

ITS HERE! :D Time for some eyefinity goodness, and i just started my 5 day break off work.

 

Time to play games till my eyes bleed :)

cheers :) know just testing what it can really push, crysis 3, bf3, swtor, skyrim.. those are my tests now i have a silly resolution lol

try a Valley benchmark (this one is cool and give you a temp monitor to)  ^_^

[Hadouken434]

try a Valley benchmark (this one is cool and give you a temp monitor to)  ^_^

yea ill give it a go now, dont need a temp monitor though, got the corsair link commander and asus AI suite is complaining at me lol

 

quick question though, can you point me the right direction to where i can optimize everything properly? i dunno it just doesnt feel all that fluid, i get screen tearing every now n then n little lag spikes when doing things (no in game as well) 

 

i dunno, got a pretty ballin' system but doesnt feel it if you get me?

[Hadouken434]

ok.... can i just say.. Valley benchmark on across 3 panels is BEAUTIFUL! Absolutely stunning

[Hadouken434]

 

 

 

Sorry for the blurry camera but thought id share my pride n joy :)

lol true  :lol: i love Valley benchmark

wow, so awesome machine, congrats  :wub:

the benchmark part is simple

 

wen you see tearing or spikes (even if all still work well), is a signal for throw a -10 gpu or a -30 memory

 

that is the system telling you that "is not stable yet" (all have to work flawlessly well, no tearing, no spikes)

 

(and is a good opportunity to see the valley benchmark 100 times more lol)  :D

 

 

 

keep in mind that Valley is a true heavy benchmark (i will say is even more heavy that Crysis 3)

 

if all run well in Valley, it can run anything that you throw in there (use the Preset: Extreme HD for the test runs)
