Sorry, I do not have a mining rig any more. Will try to find the time/motivation to release the source.


edit: took it down as it is does not seem to work with the latest drivers / cards and today's mining software has these things integrated

I have a bug report for a problem on multi-card setup:

The output:

I:\Bitcoin\clocktweak>clocktweak.exe -a
===============================================================================
                ClockTweak v0.9.2b - bitcoinX.com/clocktweak/
===============================================================================

Compatible GPUs found on these adapters:
Adapter#:1  ID:1  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6670"  Active:0  GPU:0
Adapter#:2  ID:2  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6570"  Active:0  GPU:1
Adapter#:3  ID:3  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6570"  Active:0  GPU:2
Adapter#:4  ID:4  Name:"NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti"  Active:1  GPU:3
Adapter#:5  ID:5  Name:"NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti"  Active:0  GPU:4

In reality I have "only" 3 cards - one of each type.

Further:

Shows no meaningful information.

Interestingly, AMD's own tool (http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1128/AMD_GPU_Clock_Tool_v0.9.8.html) also fails. The only program that I was able to use to overclock the AMD cards in this set-up, is Saphire Trixx (http://www.sapphiretech.com/ssc/TriXX/)

I am really interested in a command-line tool as I am writing my own light-weight front-end (Bitcoin Miners in Tray), that would overclock, run a selection of miners and then minimise itself to tray, capturing all stdout output.

Download doesn't seem to be working. Tried the link in the first post (well, the link that the first post links to) - both Firefox and Chrome download a 3.5kb file instead of the 1.2mb clocktweak setup.

thanks for letting me know, should be fixed.
404'd again.

I do not have the time to improve ClockTweak to work well for all the 6xxx and 7xxx cards and their driver problems and to provide proper support for them.

In consequence ClockTweak can now be downloaded for free. Enjoy!

Any chance to make this project open-source ? Would be great to see if anyone could take a stab at updating it for the latest drivers.
I thought about it but don't want to release it as open source (yet).

Alternately, would you entertain the notion of updating the code on a work-for-hire if I paid you in BTC ?
depends on the amount  Grin

seriously, I think I put this the wrong way: if I knew how to do it I would. if anybody can figure out and tell me how afterburner does I will give it a shot.

again: there is a slight chance it would help to get a look at a clocktweak -x print of a system with a 7970 right after a reboot and after a wattmeter confirmed memory underclock to 300mhz or something deep like that.

(unfortunately I do not have a 7970)

Hi, I just tried this on vista 64, with all patches and updates applied.  I get this:

[
Help?

it really should not say that.  Roll Eyes   seems like a problem of the 32bit emulation. do you have python installed on that system?

I did not install python on either system.  Doesn't mean it's not lurking somewhere, put there by something else though.

it would be interesting if somebody successfully (checked with wattmeter/temperature) using afterburner to reduce the mem clock to a low value on a 7970 could post the -x results here or send me a pm.

That's running "as administrator".

It works fine on my windows 7x64 box, but that's not where I need it, of course.

Help?

buyed newest clock tweak and it not FUU***CKIN open  Sad

i have win7 64bit. sorry that rage

It works for me on win7 64-bit.

Won't work on windows vista 64-bit.

It's command line.. so not sure what you mean "won't open".

M

that command line black box or something open and close suddenly



Some people, unfortunately, only know how to use a mouse.

(I protested mightily when OS/2 Warp 4 installation required a mouse...)

That's standard behavior for for command line apps in windows.

Click start -> run and type "cmd" and press enter.
Then navigate to where you have the executable extracted.  If you aren't familiar with how to navigate around the command line, you either need to learn, or put clocktweak some where you can find it easily, like c:\users\.  That's where you start out by default from "Cmd".

The instructions for using clocktweak are here:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/clocktweak-win32-command-line-clockvoltage-tweaking-tool-now-free-9982

If you were looking for a point and click user interface, sorry, you have the wrong program.

You need to add -y flag to ur batch file or command line to enable over clocking of GPU
