As you can see from the image PhysX is not installed but i can install PhysX.

you can install physx from here, but it will still be greyed out or unchecked in gpu-z. it won't function (outside of BL2) without an nvidia gpu installed.

Hi everyone. I would be upgrading my rig soon and I'm planning on getting a Powercolor 7870 PCS+. Are any of you facing problems with your 7870? As I have read in some threads that the 7870 is a problematic card. Is that true? Thanks in advance!

new owner of Powercolor 7870 PCS+ here...

any tips in overclocking this baby??? i seem to have trouble going past the 1150/1225 Mhz... any additional increase would leave me with a red screen...

is it because im using the 12.11 beta 6 driver? or is my psu insufficient??

btw, my specs are:

i5 2500k
2 HDDs
h61m u3s3
antec 620
and a Silverstone Strider 560W (though it's already around 5 years with me)

thanks to those who could answer smile.gif

No the PSU should take it with no problems, but as far as I Know the PCS+ versions do not OC as good as standrad editions... Have you tried to put the voltage up? If the voltage is too low and you stress the card it just simply crashes, that is what happens with me, I get stable 1275MHz@1.225V but no more than that and cannot go above 1.225V with TRIXX on my 7850 frown.gif

hmmmmm... as much as possible, i would prefer not to up the voltages because it gets pretty hot here at my place...

a 10 min. run of Furmark gets me at around 77°C on stock settings... upping the voltage while overclocking would probably result in around 85° and i think that's quite high

maybe i'll wait for the non-beta of the 12.11 before giving it a try again and see what happens

i was quite worried for a while there that my PSU couldn't handle it anymore

thanks btw for answering smile.gif

The pcie express power sockets on 7870 gigabyte are sooo tight, I must use plenty of strenght to install the power cables.
Or its my corsair gs600w. Its new so it migh have thigh plugs.

Another thing = the gigabyte card I have is really lound right after windows installation. After installing drivers the fans get silent but I thought that fan speeds are not only governed by drivers.

Anyway. My temps are 30 on idle and 58 on load. !!!
