Lol yes. You'll probably have better luck on ebay. Just dont say anything about overclocking.

Hey guys, Just a lil update.
Refering back to my problems on pages ~47 through to ~50, the card was returned under warranty and they contacted me today to let me know that a new card was on its way and should be here tomorrow. YAY! About bloody time. I had also contacted evga support via email, and was basically told what my card was doing was normal operation, and that 3dmark11 was telling me my computer was below average because that program was used by people who run masive overclocks. LOL. Not that i ever even mention that but anyway. One recommendation, don't bother with evga support, they don't seem to be the brightest bunch of cookies. Will let you guys know what sort of OC i get when i get my card back, hopefully its a good one!

Thanks to everyone who had helped, ESPECIALLY SeanPoe and Brettjv. Many thanks to you guys.
Cheers, Carcin0Genic

But yeah, the GB cards end up with lower power usage % on the same tests, and with the 1.175V cap, none of the 670 models need any higher of a power target % than what they have available. It wouldn't help performance if they did.
Just saw this reply doh.gif Lol I forgot about it.
"It" is the power target of course (What we where talking about...)

I have what might seem to be a few stupid questions, but I know everyone here is cool, so here goes.

I have an EVGA 670 4GB.

My Max Boost is 1215 99% of the time when doing Heaven benchmark. I saw it go to 1227 while using precision, and then it crashed. So should I assume that 1215 is my highest stable? or since it went up to 1227, I just have to find a situation that works for 1227? (and maybe beyond)

It seems no matter what boost offset I go with, +65 to +83 in precision, the max boost is still 1215....Is that the way it should be?

No, but I personally can not help you hopefully someone can.

Have you set the voltage to 1.175mV and Power Target to max?
If it crash a 1227 MHz then yes 1215 is your highest stable

Also what is your PSU?

Hey, just got back from work...

Yes, my voltage and power target were/are where you suggested.

I have an XFX Pro XXX 750 W. It is made by Seasonic and got good reviews, I don't think that is the problem, do you?

In GPU-Z, it has a tab (under sensors) for power consumption. XX.X% TDP. Is there a certain number range I should be within?

1- No. Your PSU is good enough.
2- No as long it is close to the Power Target% you have chosen (I guess 122% ?)

What was your memory OC? If it is too high it can hinder your GPU overclock.

I can't remember what the memory is at...I will get back to you on that.

What does it mean when the graph lines are yellow instead of white in Precision X??

Is there a good psu test that I can run that will tell me if it is a problem or not?
