5770 specs

[KrAzYaZnFLiP808]

Can anybody tell me what card is this. I am under the assumption with the stock specs is 5770. Cuz 5750 specs are lower. I am asking becuz at stock speeds I get glitches, and cant run benchmarks without it freezing and such. The actual benchmark is Ultra Street Fighter IV. The stock speeds are 930 and 1300. I have to downclock the card to 850 and 1250 for it to not glitch out and pass the benchmarks. At these speeds, the card seems to run fine. This is through the catylist control. Thanks for your time....

it's a card with factory overclock, the specs from AMD were 850/1250 for the 5770, either the memory or core overclock is unstable, the factory OC failed, if it runs fine a 850/1250 it's a very easy solution to do that, or you could test and see if it's the core or memory OC that is unstable and just lower one...

judging by the the box picture, the card is a reference model with OC!?

the 5850 I have is the same thing, reference model with OC on the bios from xfx, and it's unstable at the xfx clock (on the memory) but 100% fine with the AMD reference clocks or a little over it...


both 930 for core and 1300 memory are relatively high for the 5700s.

Is this a used card? Probably was abused for Bitcoins. I would demand the money back.

well, not necessarily, my 5850 had an unstable factory memory OC a long time before bitcoin mining was a thing, his 5770 can also be a card from 2009.

I would go as far as to say that if he got this card recently and it was sold as simply "5770" not an specific model with OC, it would be right for the seller to just flash a bios with the default AMD clocks as a solution, full 5770 performance and stable.

Thanks to spbhm, and jpiniero. I was just confused becuase these are stock clocks when I press the default button. But I get game crashes, and artifacts in just 1 benchmark. So I actually had to lower them from stock to be able to run it better. Also when I looked at the card in the computer, its not one of those big cards that i am used to seeing, looks more like a stock card with a small fan..

Its more like the 2nd picture. I will run gpu z, and prolly due a format of drivers and see where I stand... Thanks, just cant figure out why stock clocks run bad.... I see so I can just lower the clocks to factory clocks, and get rid of the xfx overclocks.... Can I just flash bios to lower clocks, instead of keeping default. In another forum, someone suggest that the memory clocks I can prolly still keep, but lower the core clock too as he was having problems also. The dang auto tune works and says pass at a higher clock, but then still crashes and benchmarks artifiacts.

P.S. Is there any good card I can replace with this with same power pin, and be able to work with a 450w PSU. and a phenom x II 1045T?

There are some decent options within that power budget and while using that cpu. What sort of budget did you have in mind?

No budget at the moment. I was told it be 6770 or so. I would go all out beast, but cpu is abit dated, so it wouldnt make sense. Its a 450psu, so pretty much best card, drop in. I was thinking 270x,but I really dont like newer hardware on older chipsets. I usually want the cpu, and gfx card be within the same year of each other. Hence my other build I do not want to run a 4770k with a gtx 680. since their alittle more then a year apart. I like to keep in same generation. Just a pet peev. Lol.

with the xfx 5850 I got the stock bios from techpowerup (the same card, just different clocks, both were ATI reference cards 100%), if you can find the bios for your card with all the same characteristics just the default AMD clock it should be a simple process and solve the problem, but you can also edit the bios with a tool back to the reference clocks...

both 930 and 1300 are high clocks for the 5770 so I'm not sure which one is more likely to be causing the instability.


6770 = 5770 with a new bios, both have the same clocks and GPU,

I wouldn't think about going much higher than a 750 Ti or 270 with an old CPU, but it's never that simple, for a few games at very high settings even a 980 would be a good match.

 

[KrAzYaZnFLiP808]

a gtx 980 would be a good match for a phemon x6 1045t. How dated am I? Im new to amd, but I know the intel chips by heart. It seems these were the greatest chipset with 6 cores, then if I am correct bulldozer and piledriver? Im thinking of doing maybe a pair of 6970 with a upgraded psu... would be a strong system for that year....

So far, we've assumed this is a problem with the card. Is it possible your PSU just isn't powerful enough to support it? I've had similar issues before from a faulty PSU, where underclocking allowed the card to work.

 

[KrAzYaZnFLiP808]

its a 5770..... it shouldnt take alot of power, and it be very low. I can change psu when I get a newer one. but Im sure just becuase its a dated card.

What is your PSU?

 

[KrAzYaZnFLiP808]

Generic 450w PSU in a ultra case.
