Having a bit of trouble with Afterburner / Trixx - no matter what settings I pick in Afterburner, voltage control is grayed out, i can however underclock the memory, overclock the core and use all the other options.
Trixx allows me to set the voltage, but not to undervolt the memory (by more that 150 away from the core clock).
At the moment I'm stuck using both, they work just fine - I will overclock the core, underclock the memory from AB, then open Trixx - it opens with the memory undervolted already - then I set the voltage.
GPU-Z confirms it all functions correctly - my only problem is the inconvenience of having to use two pieces of software.
I have not instaled CCC, using 13.5 beta drivers, 2 x Sapphire 7950.

well the new msi AB has the unoffical oc'in in the settings tab now...much easier to underclock mem now...but sometimes it doesn't work the best...oh well i'll take what i can get

I know this is an old thread, but does anyone have a better link for the DLL file required in the OP's first post. I believe it is atipdlxx.dll
When I used the link, all I get is a lot of spam windows from iLivid and Flash Video Downloader and crap.
the post right above yours?When I used the link, all I get is a lot of spam windows from iLivid and Flash Video Downloader and crap.
or the mediafire one some bit above that?
http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=359671 has a link to the files.
I am using those files and can do 625MHz memory clock on one box and 310 on another.
Edit: The 310 is short lived and random for me. I have not found a fully reproducible method for getting MSI to glitch the 310.

I didn't need the DLL at all. Just follow the rest of the instructions as far as editing the CFG file and deleting the Profiles folder contents. Note that it will reset when you reboot the system. There is a thread here that works for making things stick through a reboot.

How about we setup a Btc tech support room with Paltalk ?
Very easy to share files.. thats if they have worked out the glitches lol..

I don't have the time to do it myself but will stop in and do what/when I can..

its a good thread except for one major thing...the dll site tries to install adware on your machine. that is a really bad thing.
http://www.mediafire.com/?hlulrwjbk72ldly
should allow you to download the zip without installing adware. no promises though as I will not monitor the link constantly.
update: dude....GENIUS!!
thank you for the tip!
I've lowered temps on my 7990 malta from 79-86 range to 71-73C....hell yeah!!!!!
gpus 925-1000mhz, ram on all cards is now at 300mhz...this drastically reduced my heat...i am running stock cooling too...will post pics soon.

i put it at www.nogleg.com/archive/bitcoin.misc as atiocdll.rar
i assume the DLL files are legit, i didn't use them myself (just ran through a couple virus scanners)
What file is that ?
The file that gets placed in the Afterburner folder is called, atipdlxx.dll.

It was the file that someone else put up on mediafire for some reason. I assumed it was the dll being discussed
just stumbled upon this thread and saw something about dll file and hosting and then someone posting some DLL files and saying something about how his stuff works. so i downloaded said DLL files, checked for viruses, and posted em
so since they're apparently unrelated, i'll remove them
*scratch*
ed: err, yeah, the atipdlxx.dll file is in there. the 64 is for 64 bit systems? shrug. guess i'll leave it

Very good news!!! After 48h without sleep, have memory working at 150 on my 7950 Vaporx's rig with auto starting with system will work for any 7xxx card!!! Now I go sleep but when i wake up i will release some some files and will write tutorial. I will be hard part of it due to my english.

12.6+ AMD drivers do not let you change the memory speed of 7xxx (7950, 7970, etc) cards below a certain threshold. To underclock memory, use Afterburner and a dll file.
1) Install MSI afterburner.
...
I have done all this, but I can't go lower than 685MHz on my Sapphire 7970 (Afterburner won't let me).1) Install MSI afterburner.
...
I use:
Windows7 64bit
MSI Afterburner 2.3.1
Catalyst 13.1
What might be the problem?
What I do wrong?
If I adjust 625(is what AB left me adjust normally) work ok.
May 16, 2013, 05:48:06 PM
I do that and it work 7950 lowered to 155, but after restart my rig i always have all settings restarted to default(if i put 150,155,300,400) alway back to 1250.

Same here. It's not just you. I then have to delete the contents of the Profiles folder and do it all again. What I do wrong?

Clost MSI AB. Go into the program folder, and delete everything in the "Profiles" folder. Reopen MSI AB, and your slider should reset to middle at whatever clock rate you left it off at. It will ask you to reboot, and just choose no.

@nwoolls thanks for the tip, i have delete the content of profile folder and now i can downclock my mem at 310Mhz on my HD7950.
May 15, 2013, 05:00:27 PM
It seems cards on PCIe 1x connection can't go below 625 in memory clock, or it's just me?
I can adjust the memory clock to as low as 150 on a card in regular 16x slot with multiple restart of MSI AB, but not the case for a card in 1x to 16x riser slot.
I've got two Sapphire 7950's, neither using risers. Right now one is in a 16x slot and one in a 4x. I cannot get AB to take either of them below 625.I can adjust the memory clock to as low as 150 on a card in regular 16x slot with multiple restart of MSI AB, but not the case for a card in 1x to 16x riser slot.
Update: Scratch that. Found instructions earlier in the thread to delete the contents of the Profiles folder in the AB folder. That did the trick, I can now clock lower than 625.
