Hello Gents

 

Running DCS P51D but GPU-Z shows the V.Card remains as in 2D mode and doesn't kick in when playing, fan speed may rise to 30% but thats all.

Other apps like IL-2 or Heaven benchmark show normal activity loading.

 

1st install didn't include DX part but did 2nd full one on top.

Action taken for no avail:

-Diffrent drivers

-Dissabled Catalyst AI

-Asigned profile in CCC.

 

My main System parts:

I7 920@3.92, ASUS P6TD MB, HD5870 2GB with CAT 10.12, 1920x1200, Tripple Channel 6GB RAM, Corsair TX 750W.WIN7 64bit Ultimate.

 

Thanks fo hekping

GP

GPU-Z is not reporting correct data, have you tried to check if there is leter version of GPU-Z? Fact that if you are in DSC sim your card must be running in 3D mode so don't worry about that being reported wrong by GPU-Z.

Thanks very much Kuky.

 

Since This specific program had "negative atitude" towards DCS in the # of tests done, didn't suspect it as flaky (it is latest version) but your comment made me look for another utility and found this:

Used AMD CCC + the new GPU Monitor and all is well.
