Should be easy to disable ulps in trixx settings,need a reboot when disabled.Remember not to close trixx before reboot.

Yeah i tryed that m8, not really sure whats causing it yet. I have ULPS disabled in every instance in the registry manually, its ticked in trixx but still is says its enabled when i try to move the clocks. I have tryed drivers 12.1, 12.2 and im on 12.3 now. Just using the most current version of trixx. Ive just upgraded from crossfire 5850`s so i might do a clean windows install on my SSD maybe that will sort it.

Remember to use the amd driver specially certified for hd79xx.

Make a complete uninstall of amd drivers before you install new driver.Be sure there is nothing left of the old drivers.

If that doesnt help,maybe its time for a fresh w7 installation.

Yeah I've been doing clean installs. Gonna reformat tonight I think. If I can push the card any harder afterwards I'll post it tonight.

That is an awesome OC mate. Your P Score on 3D mark 11 is almost 3K above my 580 lol

Yeah I game at 1920x1200 on a 28" Hanns g. My frames are about 45 min 75 max, but I generally use vsync and it hardly moves from 60

System spec is:

I7 950 @ 4GHz

NH d14 cooling

asus rampage 2 motherboard

Mushkin radioactive ram @ 2000mhz

Sapphire 7950 oc edition

Enermax 850w psu

Ocz 120 g ssd

1tb storage

Antec 1200 case

Ok, i just reformatted the boot drive, just installed the chipset drivers and the lastest drivers for the 79xx cards from the AMD site, then installed trixx and guess what!!?? Same issue grrr. So i must be using the wrong drivers right? Can someone link me the correct drivers and correct version of trixx so i can continue overclocking my sapphire 7950 oc edition.

Many thanks in advance

Ok guys, I got trixx working with the original 7950 drivers (doh), but with the same clocks and voltages as i used in msi afterburner on the new drivers i lost 500 3d mark points. I got my card running at 1225/1625 at 1.243v but scores were going down so i give up. I think if u can get trixx working with 12.2 or 12.3 preview drivers u will get some massive scores. Hope this helps someone
