Ya Steve I think switching back to 6850 specs should do the trick. But dang that is some impressive hardware.

I just hope I sort it out because it was not a cheap upgrade. I will get back to working on it on Thursday. I am hoping it's just cooling issues since I can solve that easily.

In case anyone has any pointers...
Regardless of whether the cards are set to their locked 1408 shaders or unlocked 1536 I get total lockups after some gameplay. It might take 5 minutes it might take 50, but at some point the screen completely freezes (or goes dark) and the PC stays running. But it requires a hard reset to actually do anything. I disabled Crossfire and tried it on a single card and had it crash on me after about 15 minutes or so. I guess I need to do some more temperature testing to see how hot the cards or CPU are getting. Probably a good idea to make sure my BIOS is up to date as well. If it's not temperature related I think it might be the ATI drivers... in which case I get to play around with testing previous versions. Fun.

I don't have a spare sound card laying around so I'll have to play deaf during testing.

yeah try it out im pretty sure the sound card is the problem. but i dont think its a driver issue. ive updated my drivers so many times and it never helped. what kind of mobo are you using? is it gigabyte?

I was using a gigabyte and never had issues with the sound. I have an MSI P55-GD80 now.

Are you adjusting voltages as you OC the card?
I had to take my 570GTX up to 1.68 volts (from 1.13) when I OC'ed it..otherwise it was crashing out of BF3 constantly. |

also..have you ever used ATItool? Awesome way to scan your card for artifacts as you adjust clock settings. A good rule of thumb is to go at least 15 mins. without an artifact.

Now that I'm used to the game I'm having a lot more fun.
...also the helicopter changes have made my life was a gunner/pilot easier. ![]() I'm partial to the 870 on every map that isn't wide open, also. It freakin' destroys people. Also m4, you might need more power. My buddy has the same setup you do, except his runs a 950w. He was having some stability issues until he upgraded, too. I mean, technically 750 should be fine, but it seems to be a trend with these cards. Also you shouldn't be having heat issues. I run a 6970 and it is pretty cool. I have three case fans blowing on it, though. Last edited by nuTinmuch; 12-08-2011 at 06:11 PM. |

Cards are all at stock clocks on stock voltages.

Ah OK.
Does ATI do BETA drivers? Also, about 3 months ago I had the EXACT issue you had and the problem boiled down to my Mobo. My pci-e slots were drawing too much power and causing black screens/crashes..i got a replacement board and problem went away. just something to note i guess. |
