Why is my 7950 throttling?

Hehe I think I got it all figured out now guys

First of all, there's a setting in Trixx to "reset clocks on startup" you need to check that to have it set your OC on system start.

And secondly, I know why it was throttling in the first place, I had a mix of settings in different programs.

I had my power setting to +20% in CCC, but I was using Trixx for my OC, but I didn't see the "board power" setting in Trixx, that was still at 0.

So I had settings conflicting with each other, I believe its all sorted out now because I found the board power setting on Trixx and set to 20, and I have disabled the graphics overdrive in CCC.

Yeah but you said it was happing when you palying FC 3 so figured you were playing it oc and it reset when you were playing so I misunderstood that then.

You didn't know you had to scoll down.

Heh, thanks.

Card is performing within parameters... as for it's owner I think it's his bedtime.

well maybe i spoke too soon, now Trixx is resetting to stock at system start. so now I need to manually reload the profile.

is my card not getting enough power or something, is that why it keeps acting up? I have it hooked to a 650 watt Rosewill Capstone.
