Hobbes Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Have you tried reseating the card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingless Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Have you tried reseating the card? Looks kind of artifact-y, so a reseat may well do the trick. Also making sure you have both 6 pins plugged in if the card needs it, the card's fan is working, blah blah blah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 is it plugged in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredTacos Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 WHAT THE HELL....not a driver problem, card isn't seated right or its not getting powered. Reseat the card, make sure getting good power and try again. Does it do this in the bios? If so after reseating and doublechecking power, could be a bad card.

Clark Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 GPU-Z VDDC Current is fluctuating between 1.5A & 4.6A. With a jump sometimes to 7.0A. This fluctuation is very regular. GPU CoreClock is fluctuating very regularly between 850.0MHz & 240.0MHz. I have tried putting my x1800xt in his pc and gpu-z does not report any fluctuations.

I have tried putting my x1800xt in his pc and gpu-z does not report any fluctuations. **edit** At idle, the core and voltage will fluctuate on some ATI cards, goes to 3d clocks. Use "ATI Tool" to test clocks/load voltages. ----> ati tool http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=725 That card draws close to 70AMPS on load, should idle at least low 20's for the VDDC CURRENT <---(may not be valid for this card). Sounds like the PSU is having trouble honestly (even though it shouldn't) That PSU should be more than enough to power that rig + card. Only advice I can give is to try in a different PC or try another PSU to narrow down the issue clark.

Clark Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 No, his pc is not a Dell. I think it mightve been a reseat. At least he's playing now for 15 mins or so without probs. I can't believe it wouldve been that simple of a problem. Not when most of my pc probs are huge fucking messes, lol. vent, terry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
