radeon hd3650 and it's overclocking

T3hn0 · Mar 18, 2008, 11:39 AM

hi...one of my first threads here :P
been here a while but just as an observer...

so here's the thing...i've recently bought new pc..must say that i'm more that happy with asus maximus formula

but i still need to buy new cpu and new radeons (2 to be precise)...but now...

i've got sapphire radeon hd3650 256mb (gddr3). i've already mounted zalman cooler vf900-cu, and i wanted to oc it a bit..well, more than a bit actually

i'm running on vista ultimate 64bit, now with catalyst 8.3. i've tried to overclock wit att at first, but it couldn't load low level driver (or something like it), and every solutions that i found on google was without any progress. same thing happened with rivatuner 2.07b.

i can overclok only in ati's ccc, but i can overclock only to 750/825 from default frequencies 725/800 (gpu/ram), and then there's the end of slider's area.

please help

and the proof

p.s.: sry for my broken english

have you tryed out ati tool tray?

Judas · Mar 18, 2008, 04:36 PM

you "may" have to wait a little while for the tools to become more capable with the recent HD34xx/36xx .....

but damn nice overclocks!

att = ati tray tool

No. The correct name is ATI Tray Tools

In this thread you can find the latest beta version of ATT with HD cards support.

i don't think that this is good oc, because default freq. are 725/800

Judas · Mar 19, 2008, 09:20 AM

anything that has the overdrive settings floored.. i think isn't to bad imo

T3hn0 · Mar 19, 2008, 02:48 PM

tried that beta version of att...but i've got classic problem with att on 64bit vista (when it says that low level driver can't be installed). i've tried all possible ways to make windows ignore that driver (according to guru3d forum) without any luck...i've gave up on att by now

i guess i'll have to wait till next update of att or rivatuner

**temeteus82** · Mar 19, 2008, 03:03 PM

For x64 windows you need signed drivers and ATT or RivaTuner aren't getting signed...

T3hn0 · Mar 20, 2008, 03:04 AM

temeteus82: yeah i know that...but what do you mean now...Catalyst drivers or ATTs drivers? i guess that catalysts are signed, but ATT drivers aren't...

**temeteus82** · Mar 20, 2008, 03:44 AM

I'm meaning that ATi Tray Tools or RivaTurner's drivers aren't signed and they aren't going to get signed.

RoyBatty · Mar 20, 2008, 06:39 AM

There is a solution/workaround in the ATT FAQ, but I guess that's what you meant with "according to guru3d forum", right?

T3hn0 · Mar 20, 2008, 09:06 AM

RoyBatty: yes...i've tried all posibilities from ATT FAQ thread, but without any effect

T3hn0 · Mar 31, 2008, 06:55 PM

well..i've managed to do "a bit od overclocking"

this time i've used good old fashion way -> bios editing

i'm just posting some results...

so, if you don't wanna read previous posts...

default clocks are 725MHz (GPU) / 800MHz (RAM)
new clocks are 920MHz / 910MHz

TechPowerUP GPU-Z validation
3dMark06 result (5313) - before this oc (4383)

yeah, i know that i didn't managed to lower some ferquencies for 2d mode, but cuz i'm not so sure which one to lower, i kinda decided to keep em, since i didn't actually pass 40°C while benchmarking...
