You are Evil how did you know I have to send one of my GPU'S in it's on it last gasping breath

I have been getting auto Crossfire shutdown so I took out the one that was the trouble maker and he was hotter then toast every time I ran Unigene I would crash and get artifacts the GPU would get almost to 90c so I know that wasn't normal

So let's hope I get back on target Besides one card is plenty I am playing Bioshock Infinite and it was crashing because of that card

 

[kbrady1979]

Did you have them overclocked any? If so, did you try setting them back to factory defaults?

I did the bad card heats up immediately

I played Bioshock for two hours on the single card that is running now The good card temps were max 60c

The other Gpu the thermal paste is bad on the GPU or it is dying out so I am going to send it and have it repaired Lifetime warranty Visiontek

That Gpu got to 70c on Unigene on the 5/26 of the benching the other didn't reach 70c till the end

 

[Britton30]

Do you get better FPS with the two cards?

Unigine can get things pretty darn toasty enit. Hae u ran the newer 3dMark Firestrike? If you use the free version you have to watch the demo's inbetween each bench so things get proper warm.

Off topic i know but its just a quickie.
Do any of you know where i can find some sort of list of wo makes the panels for different monitors?
I've been getting a noticable increase in fps/heat in BF3 with each driver update and get some silly high fps. I've not once seen any tearing though.

 

[kbrady1979]

I've seen a list in the past, but I'd never be able to find it again. Odds are, it is either a Samsung, LG or Sharp panel.

Yeah man its a proper good deal this one. I've not got around to going over the forum yet Too many emails to go through when i've had a day or 2 off lol.

 

[Solarstarshines]

Do you get better FPS with the two cards?

Yes I do I get half of what I been getting but with one card at 1920/1080 I'm getting 87 fps

that is still good for a single card slightly up-clocked

What I am going to do is go to the store and get a set of screw drivers that will fit these little screws and change the thermal paste

I seriously think that paste is all it needs because it boots and runs fine just it get's hella hot fast which is telling me the paste is old and not working

 

[Britton30]

Be careful with the paste, some of the GPU dies are tiny and need only a touch.

Very true. The scientific term is a "dab" or a "smidgen" of paste, in case you were wondering lol

Smidgen for sure Kelly, or a similar amount I came up with a few years back is called "A Country Pinch" As in Countryside like farmers and stuff not Countries like the UK or USA.

We have a similar standard called "A Country Mile", and if you've ever walked one, you know it's a valid and precise measurement lol.

Oh yes I have heard of a Country mile. It's accurate to within 10 miles usually give or take a few miles

The monitor i'm looking for info on is the Hanns-G HL231
They have a fair bit of backlight bleeding through when i use black wallpapers but no matter how high the fps reads i've not once seen any tearing. Hanns.G HL231 monitor review
