Trying to get a passive heatsink system going and using MBM5 to support build.

Its great thanks.

 

Few queries though.

MBM5370 with NF4 data file and _xhp_ 7.22 plugin.

 

Im running my Point of View 7800GT in Sli mode but on the bottom slot as I have a Heatsink on the chipset which fouls the card if in the top slot. I have a heatsink on the card with a 80mm side window case fan feeding it air.

 

Q. Im getting `0` as a reading for Sensors 23, 24 & 26. Sensor 25 appears to be the GPU core which idles at 45C. Yet Sensor 21 and 22 intermittantly run at 1000C & 275C. From the plugin am i picking up 21 & 22 from were the top card signals should be or something else? Is it calibration?

 

Q2. My idle figures for Sensor 25 `GPU Core` is approx 45 when the CPU is 25, PWMIC is 30 and chpiset is 38. If I load Trackmania nations GPU Core reaches 70 by the time the intro sequence has run? With my nvidia driver and the plugin can i put this down to possible conflict affecting the calibration or do I have to accept a poor cooling solution? I failed to test with std coolin pack :( to compare

Make sure sensors 23, 24, and 26 are set to "Custom" under MBM5 settings.

Make sure NV Plug-in is set to start.

 

70 degrees is very typical of what the peak temps hit. (Cards can cool off real fast).

That would be your memory and core clocks...

70C is pretty much normal under load, even my pour 6600gt can hit 75C without a problem :P

How come I can't see the "plugins" option when I right click on the system tray icon? I am running 5.3.7.0 and have the expert data set installed.

 

Thanks,

Mars.

my second card for quad sli should be here in a week or so ..

 

right now with mbm running and a single 7950 .. i can see the temps of both cores .. gpu1 and gpu2 and a single core and mem clock

 

reading just like it was detecting my old sli setup ..

i guess u need to add temp sensors for gpu 3 and gpu 4

there is always a difference cuz one of the gpus on the single card is sandwiched .. so its always liek 3-7c higher .. and then sometimes the outside gpu core is higher ..

 

if u check the nvidia control panel .. it shows just a single temp for the card

 

but since i had sli setup in mbm .. it shows the temps of both cores
