I had just at present endeavoring that, the fan control seems to work well when minimized and I feel affection for the task bar monitoring, I encompass the GPU temp and fan speed demonstrating, other than might not you be familiar with it, the core voltage does not work, still I be able to live with that, I do not imagine it worked in Trixx 4.1 moreover. When I read "our Gigabyte 6850OC Card" I instantaneously assumed you were working for Gigabyte to a certain extent than meaning cards similar to ours! All in all the overclocking is tranquil quite superior, I just have to give the impression of being at it as a failsafe.

I just finished my innovative system through GigaByte HD 6850 OC card. I might approximating to ask, in CCC I observe my GPU has 40 degrees celsius through fan set to 48% speed in idle. In this setting, the card fan is essentially diminutive loud. It is louder than my preceding 8800GT card. Additional than My 8800GT runs through fan in idle around 30% by means of temps regarding 67 degrees celsius.

I imagine even if my 6850 fan was set to 20% the temps might be lower and card could not be heard. Therefore, my query are, please, anybody with similar graphics, are my temps and fan speed the entire right in terms you have comparable. The 40 degrees at 48% idle. And, additional general query, is HD6850 I am danger in higher temps with the purpose of CCC is holding it approximately 40. I mean, I be able to ovveride fan control and let it set lower, other than there seems to be no dissimilar setting for idle and stress, so if I set it to 30% in idle I worry with the intention of it might be too low for stress. I just have to add, with the intention of I have encompassed AC Silentium T11 case through 2 F12 fans. It’s not the most excellent cooled case, other than I think it’s not worst moreover.

I approximately acquire a HD 5830 Asus DirectCu model for $114 CAD additional than my order was canceled. And at present NCIX is telling me my order not be able to be fulfilled. Apparently, a number of users decided to position these place to the Bitcoin discussion.

A 6850 be able to merely pull 170-240 Mhash/s depending on how much you overclock it according to the bitcoin hardware direct. A 5770 might do the similar and save you regarding 70 dollars. In addition, it actually stinks that the entire of the awesome 5xxx series cards have comprised and been purchased in the last a small number of weeks for bitcoin mining, additional than in a few months there determine to be a PLETHORA of them on ebay and craigslist subsequent to its no longer profitable to excavation anymore. I was giving the impression of being at the HD 6870 for the reason that it utilized less energy and might still be usable for gaming or selling when I was completed mining. At this position, I probably determine to just purchase some HD 5770s.

I had an evga 295 through lifetime warranty. Sold it a small number of months back, and the buyer said it artifacts at present. Helped the buyer through the RMA. I ran the card 24/7 on F@H previous to, perhaps that kind of shortened the life. Additional than it is superior when warranty is obtainable when needed! Not be able to speak for 6850 other than I have got the ASUS 6870.

It’s give the impression of being to have a similar cooler as 6850. I was lucky to acquire it for mere $149 and I am happy as a clam. Its build superiority is superb and the fan speed does not change commencing from idle to load, meaning the card is practically silent. I not be able to hear it at the entire at the same time as working with Unigine heaven. I did not mess through voltages or Smart Doctor other than basically overclocked utilizing the overdrive in CCC. 915/1050 -> 1000/1200 and I am satisfied.
