If they're Sapphire, no other program can overvolt them than Trixx. No version of afterburner supports the voltage control chip on those PCBs either.

The problem is, Trixx is a half-assed monitoring & OC tool. It will only work on 1 gpu at a time (or a dual gpu which is crossfired). There is no way to force it to change settings on a different card unless both are crossfired.

It doesn't even come with a config file, only a single .exe

Contact them & request support for multiple GPUs in the next release.

amd gpu tool (second latest with 58* builtin) can oc the second then. msi afterburner could set fan (and voltage perhaps)
i work with those 3 for my 2 5850's

with MSI AB I can't change voltage, indeed with the AMD tool I can OC to 900MHz but I can't reach 1000MHz like TRIXX...

I suspect that is the case as well. One would think there would be a registry hack somewhere that might allow you to change the card. I will take a peek around once my 1x=>16x cable comes in. The other idea I was thinking was flashing the cards OC'ed once the sweet spot is found individually.

I already tried I think it is only for crossfired GPU

If it's worth anything, I haven't figured out how to do these either. I'm half expecting the answer might be that Trixx just doesn't support multiple GPUs unless their crossfired.  Sad

Tell Trixx to sync GPUs?

Hi

I am on Windows 64bit with 2 HD 5850 NON-CROSSFIRED.
I can OC the first one with Trixx but I don't know how OC the second one, when I try with MSI After Burner, I can go over 900Mhz and change the voltage.

Thanks
