Use ATi overdrive which is inside the catalyst control center.

then test your benchmarks with ATi Tool or Furmark

I use rivatuner and it works nicely. You can create profiles and triggers so it can automatically adjust the speeds; so if load is <10% you can have it underclock and lower the fan speed, and when the load increases you can have the card overclock and the fan speed increase, etc.

Also don't bump after 2 minutes

Bro, sure its not good for the card ? I was using Rivatuner for all my nvidias before this, and after getting the 4890 I used CCC. If got better alternative I'll switch.

Angry CCC and ATiTool errors

CCC got atikmdag error, I checked some recommended solution which is
uninstall KB952287 windows update but still can't work, and I need CCC's overdrive to overclock my HD4890 PCIE card. Ati tool won't detect my graphic card
Is there any other way to solve this issue??

My Specs :
AM2+ AthlonX2 7850 2.8GHz BE
MSI DKA790GX Platinum(MS7550) MB
Kingston HyperX 8GB DDR2 1066MHz Ram
C/Master 180W V8 CPU Cooling
WD RE3 ES 500GB HDD
Sapphire HD4890 Vapor-X 1GDDR5 256bit PCIEX16(OC : 990MHz Core, 1195MHz Memory via CCC's overdrive, Fan Spd 100%)
Win Vista Ultimate X86

I always get that atikmdag error while half way through my W3X Bnet Game, please help. If got any other OC tools to help OC my Graphic card, please tell me, ATI Tools and Riva Tuner just won't work.

More than likely you can't run 8gb of ram @ 1066mhz. It is an am2+ cpu memory controller limitation.

Please make a new thread stating your problem more in depth and fill in your system specs here.

acually, you can read the description on this DKA790GX Board at MSI website, it shows there, that max support ram is 1066MHz DDR2 and only AM2+ processor can run it.....
http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=pr...=&prod_no=1552

RAM : KHX8500D2K2/4G
http://www.kingston.com/hyperx/produ...ddr2.asp#1066d

scroll down at the main memory section, it shows.
