It's actually not very good. You can see the artifacts showing up way before the program sees them. That's the only major bug I've noticed with it so far. Other than that it was a snap to find the maxes. Just gotta get close to the monitor and watch for the artifacts. You can tell when you're getting close to no-artifacts and you might need to look for a longer time. It seemed like beta 11 was seeing artifacts a lot quicker but of course it crashed a lot on the x1800xtScHpAnKy said:I'll have to give it a shot when I get home
How accurate is it's detection algorithm?

I'm stuck using ATI overdrive
ATI Tool can do it, it just doesn't use the same switcher CCC uses, it uses it's own switcher.nobi125 said:Damn, when are we going to get a decen't OC program?

I'm running:
2D settings at 594/693 @ 1.25 volts
3D settings at 702/801 @ 1.475 volts
Custom fan settings so that fan hits 100% at 75C and I don't go above 76C under load.
Just enable the 2d/3d switching and what's the difference? The proof is in the pudding --> 10,273 3DMarks.
I don't know what the stock voltage is for 3D but the stock for 2D is 1.25v.nobi125 said:Are those the stock voltages for each mode?

Agreed. If you're crashing with ATI Tool then it's clear you shouldn't be using it, CCC is your best option. If you're savy enough ATI Tool will give you that extra little push. For reference, using CCC the best 3DMark I ever managed was under 9k, while easily breaking 10k with ATI tool. Like I said before. The proof is in the pudding. However, if you're not savy enough, don't mess with it.plywood99 said:Lol, Guys you need to learn how to use it.
It's like overclocking on a Dfi Lanparty mobo. If you don't spend a good amount of time figuring out what each and every bios setting does, you'll have poor results.
The good thing about ATT is it gives you complete control of voltages and frequencies. The bad thing about ATT is that it gives you complete control of voltages and frequencies. Noobs or those not willing to spend the time to figure out each voltage setting need not apply.
For those folks CCC is all that is needed. But if you want the max out of your card, ATT is the only tool out that can give it to you...

No one is name calling. Please don't turn this thread into a flame fest. My only intention in starting it was to hype ATI Tool some and let folks know the new beta is working a LOT better than the last few betas, especially on the X1800 and X1900 Cards. Thanks for the tips. I'm sure some will find them very helpful. On the other hand, I'm running on stock cooling and it's doing great. But everyone's card is going to be different. Maybe extra cooling is the answer for some.Eastcoasthandle said:What we have here is a failure to communicate. In this thread I notice 2 types of posters. Those that do not know how to overclock with ATI Tool, which makes them human not noobs or any other level of immature name calling. And, those that claim they know how to use ATI Tool but lack the necessary common sense to explain the simple process on how ATI Tool works and what you need to do to stablize your video card for oc'ing performance.
It's easy to spit out name calling, slander and insults. But it's a difficult road when you start the process of educating others and being a productive member of the ATI video card community. I suggest you think on this the next time you see an opportunity to insult those that don't know how to do something. Instead, teach those with some basic steps to using the OC tool. As I last recall, I didn't find any specific instruction from these 2 post that would help enlighten and educate those that do not know how.
Here is what I have learned using ATI Tool:
-it does a number on you vregs...ramsinks will not help alone you need a 120mm fan on top of those vregs and mosfets to help keep them cool. I have found a product that may help you achieve this Whereever PCI Rack
When using ATI Tool place the mouse over the temp readings to find out what they mean. The first one is for vregs, etc. This will help you understand how hot your VC is and what you need to do in order to cool it off.
make sure you're saving your voltage settings to the profile also. And make sure CCC is deactivated. Also make sure the voltage switcher is not loading on startup.Budwise said:anyone care to post an overclocking guide to ATI Tool? Its giving me some grief with my X1900XT as when i create a profile all is well, but when i go to apply it later it scrambles my screen and screws things up.
