Guest Guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Hello all I bought ati 3650 from ebay installed it into my laptop . I tried to play farcry 2 and my laptop just shut down before id even got past the menu screen. So i used gpu z to see my graphics card info. Default clock is 300mhz and memory 405mhz but the problem is my gpu clock changes from 600mhz and memory 700mhz then they keep changing to values like 91750mhz and 81531mhz which is crazy. Anyone have any ideas why it keps changing and saying its so high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MonkeyMhz Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Id say you have one kickass card if it could stay at 91k mhz. lol. Man thats such a strange problem. I honestly don't know what could be the problem. Drivers? BIOS? strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any ideas why it keps changing and saying its so high. This also happens in my amilo xi1546. There are loads of pictures of the same thing happening on techrepublic site. What system are you runinng, my theory is that as this card is not fully supported by ATItool then it may be a case that its not fully supprted by GPU-Z, it may also be to do with the vbios. My clocks can remin at 600 / 700 but as soon as i use the sensors to monitor and change back to the main screen they start changing like yours.

What are your temperatures? The shutdown are due to overheating... Can you apply or reapply some artic Silver on the gpu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nassevis Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) 1. newest catalyst with mobility modder. 2 the clock thing is a gpu-z bug, try a older version. 3. powerplay setting on with both at maximum performace = maximum performance. This core do actually get quite hot. i solved it with underclocking and undervolt the cpu Edited November 10, 2008 by nassevis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I have the same Acer 6920 it is overheating, ive looked it up and it shuts down automatically at around 65C the only thing to do is underclock it as far as i can tell. If anyone has any other suggestions id appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBRoot Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi, try Nibitor and lower the temperature shutdown of the card: for ATI 3650 it should be about 95°C not 65°... You can do the same for your CPU with Notebook Hardware Center (NHC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
