Firstly thanks for baring with a noob :) , im getting there.
I recently bought my first ATI card, a X800xt, iv always had nvidia. I fitted a Zalman VF700, the model with the blue light. All went fine and the card is idling at between 29-33 depending on how warm the house is. Problem is iv never had an ATI so i dont know if this is normal :confused: . At load it gets to around 50c, again does this sound normal?
If i get good news on the temps im hoping to do a littel OC'ing using ATItool. My question is what temps can i safely allow this card to reach?

Thanks for any replys guys :), much appreciated.
 
Defintly do some overclocking. That's pretty cool for a load temp. My x850xt overclocked gets into the mid 70's at full load and idles around 40c.
 
Ok, that sounds good :). Now i downloaded this atitool. I see on the left it says:

Find Max Core/Find Max Mem

Would it be wise to let this program do the overclocking for me? Also, should i have the ATI overdrive enabled when im oc'ing?
Thanks again for these replys
