Hello.
To get the most out of my lovely 4850 (1 GB), I would like to overclock it.
Since it is idling right now in a 73-deg-F room at 40C, I believe I have some headroom.
I know nvidia's control panel had an overclock feature. Does CCC have one of these? And does it save the settings? Or is there a better program or method out there.
Thanks
Yes. CCC will work.
Oh I see ATI overdrive.
All the options are greyed out though.
iirc click the padlock
Oh yeah I did that.
I used the autotune feature to see how it would end up working out, and after about 30 seconds monitor 1 went black and monitor 2 had a white and grey box repeating pattern all over it. Why did this happen?
It clocked itself too high and overheated. Is it okay now?

Yeah it's fine, but it didn't overheat. It only hit 47C.

Which I'm pretty sure is a decently low temp for a graphics card.

Wait this is a CCC problem I think. I had this problem when I first installed this card and tried to use CCC. When I went into a certain tab CCC would spaz out and give this same kind of error. I will try to update my drivers.

Ah what the fuck.
A few minutes after I just updated that post, I got a bluescreen with BCcode 124, which I found indicates a hard drive failure. I downloaded HD tune pro and I have no idea what any of this shit means so what does this mean?

CRC is a method of verifying and correcting data after it is sent. What this warning is telling you is that the data being sent/received by the drive failed this check at one point, in your case, most likely before the BSOD. It's not a major issue if it happens one or twice, but if it continues to occur, you may want to back up your data and RMA it.

Don't use the autotune feature, just clock it yourself and test stability with Furmark.

yeah yeah man.
I took the advice of the wonderful little box and replaced my SATA cable with a long working one. It's funny how the newer one failed first.
Anyway that problem is out the door and I will now try to overclock again.
Alright things are going good this time. I had a driver issue fucking shit up and a bad SATA cable.
I overclocked from 625mhz to 700mhz for GPU clock, and a bit on the memory. The problem is I'm kind of stuck here. Whenever the clock test fails also, the program wont let me change anything.

Oh and when do these settings kick in? It seems CCC is reporting the graphics card to be at standard clocks. Does the overclock kick in during times of strain?

After I put the memory over 1010MHZ i get artifacting in hl2.
The gpu clock is good at 700 mhz though. but why does this happen to the memory?

Isn't that for MSI products?
Nope, I use it myself.
