Although not yet announced an interesting new Cypress-based card has popped up online, a Radeon HD 5870 boasting 2GB of GDDR5 memory, which is double the amount found on current models, and featuring no less than six Mini DisplayPort outputs.

I am having a problem though and hope someone can help as I have never owned an ATI card until today.
When the card is at stock settings it works flawlessly but when I overclock it even the slightest bit eg 5mhz I get weird figures come up from the core and memory sensors and a flickering on the screen.
I haven't been able to get the flickering screenshot but this shows the core speed reducing etc.
I have noticed when the card isn't being utilized it under clocks it to a core of 400mhz to save power and reduce heat no doubt but when its not at the stock clocks the power save changes the clocks to stupid amounts.
I have been playing BF3 with my newly updated 5870. Without any reason I get BSOD. No framerate drops or overheating. Also, I get screen tearing with just normal applications up. ex. Google Chrome, itunes ext. Just some information on my system-

3g ram
5870

Allright so first my specs:Nexus 80%+ 800W psuCore i7 950 not overclockedAsus p6t motherboard8gb of ram, vengeance 1600mhz (2x4gb) seated in a1 and b12x 640gb hard drivesWindows 7 64bitNow to the issue, when I plug my radeon 5870 into the mobo, I can boot into windows and log in np, but when I install catalyst drivers etc, I crash in gui, except if I disable the card in device manager, resulting in me using the crappy on-board gpu. I first thought tyat the 5870 was busted so I plugged a brand new gtx560 in and it crashed at POST a few times, and then coming to the windows logo and crashing there. No error messages, and then I plug my 5870 (still no drivers) and windows boots up fine. I've re-seated everything multiple times, and checked wires and heat, nothing out of the ordinary.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWell I do not really know where to start. I've bought myself a new computer and I'm trying to set it up and completing updating stuff.
And Everything goes smooth until the installation of my new Sapphire Radeon Hd 5870 Graphic card.
I'm not any expert in this field and could really need some help, directions or what to look after to make it work.
I'm able to install all except the actual driver. The drivers I'm trying to install is latest from Ati's homepage.
The error message i get is following:
"Driver install: user must be a member of the administrators group"
Error During installation of newest Drivers
I've tried right clicking and Run as Administrator but nothing changed and I still got the same "result" or problem after that.
I've checked in my Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Local Users and Groups -> Users
And there I've checked that my User is a member of Administrators.
I've tried starting up a game (Aion to be correct) and got this error:
Error Message Starting up Aion
I've tried to install new drivers by selecting the location off the driver but then windows gave me a message that said following:
"Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date"
Picture shows Advanced settings in Screen Resolution
Picture off Advanced Screen Res. Settings
On my Motherboard, Asus Rampage II Extreme, It said that if you were running a single GPU card it should stand at the top Pci-e slot, so it's mounted after the manual.
I don't know if that makes me unable to try the 2nd or 3rd Pci-e slot to test the actual slot or not?
So having recently installed my new 5870 video card I was quite eager to start running some bench tests and checking out the results.
Initially I booted up Crysis Warhead and Flight Simulator X for a quick run and immediately noticed a drastic improvement with this card. Crysis was on FULL settings and didn't even flinch during gameplay.
Windows WEI improved from 7.4's to 7.8's on graphics (previous card was nvidia Evga 9800 GX2)
3d Mark Vantage on the other hand has got me stumped. My numbers are WAY lower than expected as they are showing way lower than with my 9800 GX2?! Also, the CPU score is coming up as one third of what I was getting before and I haven't made any changes to my CPU!
I suspect that this is a software problem with 3d mark, since everything else showed signs of improvement but can't understand where the issue lies.
I am running Windows 7 x64 & ATI 9.10 Drivers for 7 x64
Attached are screenshots from vantage after tests before with my old card and now with the 5870. The attached GPUZ shot on it's own is of my current config as well.
PS - the total score of my before pic shows '0' by accident, I believe I reset it at the time by mistake but the individual scores beneath are still valid.
My computer is in one room and TV is in another. I use the stereo plug to power the small satellite speakers at the computer and the HDMI cable from the mother board to drive the TV in the adjoining room. I would like to have sound in both rooms, but WMC seems to restrict one to either/or.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI tried looking for an answer to this in the forums and on Google first, but I couldn't find anything for my issue. I have a set of computer speakers that I like to listen to music through, and a USB headset that I like to listen to games and movie through. I switch back and forth pretty often, but every time I do, I have to log out and log back in for the newly plugged-in device to actually make sound. Is there any way to set up Win7 to play audio to both devices so that I can just turn off my speakers when not in use?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI like to play games with headphones on so I can hear voice chat and in game sounds, but I also like to listen to music. It would be a ton easier for me if I could play my music thats on my computer through my speakers, and still listen to game and such in the headphones. I have not been able to find any way to use multiple jacks on my computer in the way Id like to.
View 4 Replies View Relatedwhile playing games like Battlefield Bad Company 2 I'm most of the time recording as well. While playing and recording I do also want to listen to some music, but i don't want the music to be in the recorded file.
I tried different outputs for the music and recorded audio devices in Dxtory, which is the program I use to record the gameplay.Nothing worked, I either got game sound and the music in the recorded file or no sound at all.Now I got the idea to output the gamesound through my motherboard AND my soundcard (Asus Xonar D1), output the music only through my soundcard and record only the motherboard output with Dxtory. I hope you guys understand what i mean, excuse my English.

I have my monitor (vga) and my tv (hdmi) hooked up to my desktop computer. When I listen to music I have it open on my monitor and the sound comes through the bookshelf speakers I have connected via the audio jack. However when I want to watch a video, I watch on the TV and I want the sound to be coming from the tv. Currently I go into the volume settings and change the default playback device. Is there anyway to do this automatically?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Radeon HD5850 with a HDMI output that is plugged on my HDTV, I am using Win 7 and the last Catalyst drivers.The video is working just fine (extended desktop, I can play a movie on the TV while playing a game on my monitor on the other desktop) but I have a problem separating the audio streams.Is there a way (built in windows, ati driver or external program...) to send the audio stream of some applications (the movie basically) on the HDMI output, and the streams of other applications on my regular audio output at the same time?Usually on Win7 when you have 2 sound cards you can just set one as default, launch your program, then set the other one as default and launch the other programs and that will do the trick (the streams stay on the output that was the "default output" when they were launched). But with the HDMI of the Radeon, when I switch the default adapter, all the sound is switched..
