TrixX 4.6.0

[another7850User]

so for all that have similar problems just use Trixx v4.3.0 until they fix the "new" one

older Versions bumped my Vcore to 3d mode even in Idle mode. 4.6 is better, but still not my "real" idle vcore.

It's a bit sad that i have to use OC Software of a other Manufactur while Sapphires very own tool doesn't work flawless for me.

First of all I apologize for not updating my posts in a while, I have just been very busy and otherwise occupied with this thing called life always getting in the way of the things I want to do.. I assure all these are not abandoned. I thank all of you for your continued interest. It will help us all use the software better in the future if all goes as planned.

Thanx Rubenoa,

Also I appreciate the user info, thank you very much guys. This is exactly what I had in mind. I know there are are issues with TrixX for various users. I will use this information. I would like to see if a pattern can be found. Perhapes make, model or brand specific issues. I want to make this more important data so that TrixX's very basic and to the point interface could meet with very complete stability and comprehensive support. I believe that the hardware is a big source of issues as they are marketed to be overclocked they are mostly tested under thier factory standard settings. Sapphire TrixX developers most likely test more of thier updates on thier own hardware than say ASUS, VistionTek or PowerColor,etc. I say this from pure speculation and am not sure about the models tested I would assume they would figure on more Sapphire users utilizing the program after registering thier Sapphire products with Select Club.

However this has absolutely no explaination of problems with Sapphire model cards having the same issues. I hope that with more research and user input perhaps a more precise REDarea that could cause issues with each release. There should be less of a mystified answer such as use at your own risk when the product (and competeing) programs obviously promote the fact that the equipment can utilize them otherwise the software would not at all be used.

That is my ultimate goal. I will be updating the thread shortly with information planned and including whatever new findings about the new user submitted issues. Thank You. After review I hope I can get anyone posted to reply to specific questions asked in the near future.

Thanx Again.

goodplay,

Sorry for the late reply friend. Just very busy lately. These are my settings, and I Disable ULPS (Ultra Low Power State) because it causes complications when installing new Catalyst drivers. An error message keeps repeating until you restart and the benefit of the ULPS are negligable as the card has low 2D clocks as is and I have never found any detrement without the use of ULPS with an ample power supply.

My Idle temps. (2D Mode 1) clocks (250 Mhz GPU/ 150 Mhz MEM) are @ 30- 32 Degrees Celcius.
FUll ON 100% GPU activity in 3D Mode (920 Mhz GPU / 1400 Mhz MEM) runs @ 65-70 Degrees Celcius)

It seems that the percentage of fan speed usage is roughly the same as the desired temperature if the room is at average room temperature. The fan will spin higher or lower depending on fluctuations of outside temp. Obviously.

These settings are very stable. I would try it without adjusting the volatage it may require the extra bump. if you adjust do so in small increments. I have other presets with my GPU at 1 GHz and the Mem at 1450 and the voltage bumped a bit but I have not used that with this update. I plan on trying some of my presets and making lists here. (Anyone else do the same) and hopefully there could be enough data for a reference chart.

I do agree work needs to be done here.

hello
i can also confirm about the new trixx software i have sapphire hd7870 flex and with trixx v4.6.0 my idle vcore is 0.900 default is 0.825 and i cant apply overvolt
i can see it and i can change it i hit apply but nothing happens when i put gpu under stress vcore is 1.219 even if i set it to lets say 1.225
but the funny thing is that with Trixx v4.3.0 evrything is normal my idle vcore and overvolt works
so for all that have similar problems just use Trixx v4.3.0 until they fix the "new" one

Ale, This is a very important observation and suggestion. Thanx for the contribution.

I have two sapphire 7950s in crossfire. Ive tried several different utilities throughout the years, however Trixx works the best for me. The one problem I have is the custom fan settings. It will only work for one card at atime. I can get both cards to work but only one at a time. How do I set it for both cards.

Thanks SolidEther for your work here.

For starters I just have one question. When I install Trixx 4.6.0 the vddc value is 1187. When I hit reset (and apply) vddc changes to 1256. After a reboot Trixx shows 1187 again :\

Does anybody know what's going on here? I am using a 7870 XT.

I am still having problems with 3d vcore remaining the same even when idle (Sapphire 7950 boost).
Hope that it gets fixed soon because I really love the look and feel of Trixx, but I dont want my voltages staying the same all the time for no reason..

I have the same card and the same issue, not only with trixx but with afterburner also. No matter what voltage i set it to it shows 1.256 in kombustor. And when i press reset in trixx i get 1.256V. Surely they cant have shipped my card with a voltage set that high??? However, i am able to change the voltage (after tweaking alot of settings and using "force constant voltage") but the voltage is not exactly the same as the value i set (according to gpu-z). Is this vdroop? Should this occur even when idle?

Also, my memory clock is soooo bugged. When set to 1500mhz it only actually produces 1361mhz. So at the moment i have set my memory clock to 1538 which ODDLY gives me 1502mhz. For every mhz raised or lowered in trixx or afterburner it changes the actual value by alot more. I have absolutely no idea what is going on with this card and i am seriously concidering returning it.

On a side note: When i OC this card i dont get any artifacts within the actual kombustor stress test, however, i get artifacts on my desktop and other windows that are open, is this normal?

If someone could help me out with this stuff it would be so extremely apreciated. HALP PLZ :<
