7900/7950 GT Voltmod Guide

well under full load i would say tops 70-72c OC'ed settings at 635/835

edit

wow while i was using the ATI tool scan i checked the nvidia core temp and read as high as 110!

yeah, something's not right there
either your temperature monitor is wrong, or your heatsink isn't making that great contact
have you got arctic silver 5?

 

[Lord AnthraX]

as long as it doesnt go past about 70
what are your load temps?
(you can use ATI Tool artifact scanning, then look at the temperatures)

You shouldn't start worrying until you hit 90....

 

[ynnubekacnap]

sorry give me 1-3 days ill get back to you on this

You shouldn't start worrying until you hit 90....

it's better to give it some headroom though

i figured the problem out, awhile ago i did a half *** job applying a5 to the gpu core, well i redid it and now im running temps as low as 40c : )

 

[vipercrazed]

lol 110c why even use a heatsink? ha ha ha
that is a insane difference man,
my 7900gt is watercooled i really want to try this but the gpu block is really really bad and im waiting till i get a swiftech mc60 or w/e its called.

 

[Apokalipse]

what are your temps right now?

As far as I know this volt mod works on my EVGA 7900 GS. I set the core to 1.55v and got an oc from 450 to 690. When I get better cooling will aim higher!

I also read that these voltmods work on the 7950 GT's
