GPU-Z clockspeeds bouncing around with Asus 5870

mankind · 10-08-2009, 05:07 PM

Both core and memory keeps going up and down with GPU-Z:-

But with the MSI Afterburner :-

Any idea why GPU-Z is causing the clocks to go mad?

i get the same problem with my 5850, I believe GPU-z is the cause of it. I say this cause i had another program with real-time clock detection (blackbox) open with GPU-z. With GPU-z open it did it, when i closed GPU-z it stopped. I'm using the 9.11 Catalyst betas if you need that info.

Same, well used all drivers. Only does it with GPU-Z open.

Similar behaviour on ASUS EAH 4890. Nothing else running on background.

sorry for the bad English, I encountered the following problem skeda asus overclock the 5870 GPU-Z detects the GPU clock nn effective, but only reads the default

windows 7 64 bit
