How To Overclock The Ati 5650?

[jotaro12]

OC is just an experiment for me to see my GC's limit rather than implement to daily tasks/gaming. Sony has it's way to make it's product to enjoy the gaming fun while retain the heat. Same as other OEMs which do the switchable graphics trick like my Lenovo Y460 just to keep the system in good shape .

zeon zing can you tell me how to volt mod 5650 ?

Here : AMD GPU Clock Tool v0.9.26.0 For HD 5870 download from Guru3D.com

use this tool to do all modifications it's pretty easy , there are other tools also but this one is the best for this model

keep on check with temps while moderating sett , try to keep it below max 70 - 85 , benchmark some demanding app or game while testing acc to ur own prefernces

does voltage modification also?

[zeonzing]

yes
after putting the new values just click set voltage

halo..for ea16 users out there..isnt it sony ea' audio is below average quality?saw at many forums that ea16' sound quality is bad and the battery has some kind of high frequency whizzling sound which is very annoying..

yes
after putting the new values just click set voltage

How do you get it to offer voltages higher than the default? The only options I have are 0.900v or 0.950v.

k n what will be the best settings for clocks for best performance also maintaining the suitable temperature from ur experience

i have tried it with 550-900 n temperature was 60-65 (GPU)

Your notebook is Sony VAIO, so try "626/900".
On My Windows XP, this setting is safe for gaming, max temp while playing NFS Shift is 62'C. Please note, I am using the driver from Sony & Windows XP.
Because of "undervolted", I am stuck at 626MHz.

I also have Sony Vaio but my limit seems to be around 660MHz for the core and 950MHz for the memory so 660/950. I'm happy that I can at least get to the clock speeds of the 5730 even though it's undervolted. Makes me wonder how far it would go if it were normally volted.

Ok... i have a few questions cause this is my first OC .
I launched AMD GPU Clock Tool and set the values for 650 and 790, when i ran Dirt2 the game crashed after a few seconds. Set the values for 600 and 790 and i got 45 fps (on 450 and 790 i got 40 fps). I checked the temperatures usging GPU-Z and GPU-Shark, the teperature in 450mhz while playing was 59.5 and with 600mhz was 60. If i leave the speed to 600Mhz does that reduce my graphic cards life? I saw that i have 3 Performance states when i leave the frequency unchanged 450Mhz (posted a picture below of GPUShark) but if i change the speed i get only one performance state. Any ideea on how to manage the performance states?
Thank you!
