triangle artifacts 7970

[grandpatzer]

So I was gaming on just one 7970 and 5760*1080 bezel compensated.

Saints row 3, my last session lasted 1h 23min and before I quit there were these triangle artifacts all over screen in-game.

I'm using powertune 20% in AMD Overdrive.

When the artifacts appeared 73c, voltage is mostly around 1.050 or less, in the range of 1.045-1.070,

I'm OC with trixx, I have not touched the volt in trixx so it is lowest 1117mv, maybe I should try AMD Overdrive instead?

I'm far from an expert like many of the OC3D people are, but that sounds like a clear overclocking issue. Have you tried to turn your OC down a bit? I had the same thing with my 5870 if I pushed it too far.

DO NOT OVERCLOCK YOUR MEMORY!! You will get little to no gain overclocking it, and is almost always the first cause of OC problems.
