But opening AMDOverdriveCtrl and then clicking default on the Fanspeed Tab made it go back to automatic fanspeed
Topic: ATI Overdrive on Linux for 5850 and 5970? (Read 13770 times)
Ok found it out, I don't know why aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 auto" wasn't working.
But opening AMDOverdriveCtrl and then clicking default on the Fanspeed Tab made it go back to automatic fanspeed

Hello 
,
I am running a 5850 Saphhire and have the same problem, how can it switch the fan off?
This can never be a good idea, is this maybe some bug??
I only noticed it because my gpu temp went to 95 Celsius and i quickly set the fans manual again...
So if anyone has an idea how to get the automatic setting back that would be nice.
,I have an HD6950 with extra shaders unlocked.
[...]
Also, does anyone know how to set fanspeed back to auto?
seems to just turn the fan off..

i suggest you not "commit" OD changes to persistent setting, until you finished even basic GPU stability test.

Anyone knows how to overclock these on Linux? I have ATI Catalyst on Ubuntu, but it's missing the overdrive section that windoze has...
First,
Code:
aticonfig --od-enable
Then
Code:
aticonfig --od-setclocks=coreclock,memclock --adapter=num
where num is 0,1,2,... or "all".
Commit is for setting it permanently (it will clock at this value after restart)
Code:
aticonfig --odcc --adapter=all
This command checks the clock
Code:
aticonfig --odgc --adapter=all
And this one temperature:
Code:
aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all
The list of these commands is avalable by
Code:
aticonfig --help
To set the fan at 70%
Code:
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 70"
If you have multicard display, you need to set
export DISPLAY=:0.num,
where num is GPU num before submiiting the set fanspeed command.
root@sl3# aticonfig --odgt --adapter=all

actually, i found you can use RBE tool under wine and create usb boot disk with freedos to use dos atiflash tool. no windows required.
Any idea how to change voltage on these cards? AMDOverdriveCtrl tool do not allow to set it higher 1.05V
I believe what moa tried to say was that you have to use the Radeon BIOS Editor (under Windows) and flash them.

well, it is "underclockable" on windows,
had it running at 800-900MHz the last week.
now i finally got ubuntu setup and running, just with some more degrees on the cards cuz of the higher memclock, which...well, kinda sucks.

Maybe try the newest drivers direct from AMD (if you aren't already using them).

Sorry, I didn't look closely... it appears your memory isn't underclockable with your current bios. Someone else might know how to set it to something outside of the range, but I don't.

so if you want the GPU at 900MHz and the memory at 950 on all adapters, you'd do
Code:
aticonfig --od-setclocks=900,950 --adapter=all
is there any way to downclock my memory without flashing the BIOS?
don't really bother about the clockspeed, but i'd like to lower the memclock a bit, if possible.

My very professional cooling solution for the 5970:
Mahkul, whose 5850 card are you running and which bios? I have a Diamond 5850PE51G that won't let me go above 775 MHz using aticonfig. I tried several overclocking bioses including MSI and ASUS, but Linux won't boot with them in.
They are Sapphire. As for the Bios version I will check that for you tomorrow; the clock... I think I was able to go up to 900MHz, but will let you know for definite tomorrow.
As for the 5970 it is a Sapphire as well and I was able to overclock it to 1010MHz (GPU core clock!). I must get some better cooling solution, because the temperature goes too high on them at that frequency, so I have to run them at 800MHz for now (getting 306Mhash/s each core).

Guys, any idea what's the maximum temperature value that's "safe" for 5970?

odgc shows a max peak range of 840.. is there any way to push this up more?
I set it to 840
and get an extra 10,000khash/s but I'm curious how to push it outside this range. Seems possible in windows.
Also, does anyone know how to set fanspeed back to auto?

Best OC settings vary greatly. For 5970 it is usually around 800 MHz.
Can you please share your best OC settings, when you find them ?
