Orn_Ari_BStaird Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Hi, hoping there is a quick fix. Been using Corsair Link 2 for a bit now with no issues. Recently updated to BETA 2.4.4948 version. Until this week its all been good but for some reason now the temperature on my video card is no longer being read properly. Corsair sees it ok but it doesn't change. It is locked at 37C. If I check in Catalyst the internal temperature probe is working. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 im not sure what this catalyst program is but if its capable of controlling the video card then it may be interfering with link.check the settings on that program... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 are you running crossfire? if you are then it puts one of the video cards in an ultra low power state which disables the temperature reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orn_Ari_BStaird Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 wytnyt: AMD Catalst Control Center -- Video drivers. I can view the temperature and fan settings from there when in overdrive mode. I use it to confirm that the temperature probe is still functional and providing reading Bryman, not crossfire (yet). Interestingly after reboot, the Radeon HD 7900 cure is now reading 47C instead of 37C but its still not reading accurate as it doesn't change. I can get the temp up over 70C easily in games but Corsair Link doesn't change. Bit of a drag because I was using it to control the fan. Now I just bump it to "performance" setting manually to make sure I have decent enough cooling. Lighting was being managed based on temp which was a nice visual (and why I put the Link in in the first place) but doesn't happen now since no temp reading change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 what i was wanting to have checked was the video program to see if the software was controlling the video.in mine i had to disable controlling so link could as they both cant control at the same time. if its set on auto,its controlling and link cant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 you have fan off of auto on msi afterburner right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orn_Ari_BStaird Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Thanks, That makes sense. I have check and as near as I can tell I have it set to allow for manual fan control which is ahout as close as I can see. that said, I can control the fan from Link. What concerns me is that I'm not getting a true temperature reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What concerns me is that I'm not getting a true temperature reading i think thats within your particular video card,on mine i ended up using a thermal probe glad u got the rpm going...

Orn_Ari_BStaird Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Yes its within the card but at one point Link 2 could read it and now it can't but it stil lsees the probe there it just doesn't update or isn't reading properly at all, not sure which. But point is, it used to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
