Trying to clock MSI FX5900 TD128

First of all: HI! (This is my first post here ) )
I recently got muself a MSI FX5900 TD128. I installed the msi drivers and I saw it is possible to adjust the clock there. It is one (2D) that says 300mhz and one (3D) that says 400mhz. I've tried to adjust the 3D-clock to 450mhz (ultra settings) but when I reboot the pc it is back at 400mhz.
I don't know if I am doing this right and what the difference on 2d and 3d-clock is. Does anybody know?

Hi Metaman,
You are having the same problem that I had with my FX5200 that the settings were not being saved. I do not know why this is.
I downloaded the Geforce tweak utility from http://download.guru3d.com/gtu/ this allows you to change clock settings.
P.S the 300Mhz is memory speed
the 400Mhz is the GPU speed
kind regards

New FX5900 TD128 - Power Connector?

Hello everyone,
I just bought a new FX5900 TD128 card to replace my FX5600, but before I install it, could abyone tell me what the power connector on the card is for? Do I need to connect it to the power supply, or is there some other specific purpose for it? Sorry if its a silly question, but I don't want to risk damaging my new card and the manual does not mention it at all.
Grateful for your advice.
Thanks
Orcnobeard.

I measured the current drawn from it, something like 3A from the 12V and 3A from the 5V so that's about 50W, way more than just powering the fans.
The card will work without the plug, but the fans won't spin and the card will prevent you from entering 3D mode to prevent overheating.

FX5900-TD128 memory problem

Hey there,
I've been having some trouble with (I presume) my graphics card. Basically I can play games just fine after my computer has just started up (or reset). But after a while of playing games or using 3d software in general I can't start a new game.
The games just refuse (start loading and then the window closes) to start or give me various error messages, so here are some:
GTA Vice City: Grand Theft Auto VC can not find enough available video memory
Ravenshield:
OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: GenuineIntel Unknown processor @ 2555 MHz with 767MB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 (5672)
Assertion failed: RenDev [File:.\WinViewport.cpp] [Line: 471]
History: UWindowsViewport::OpenWindow
Sim City 4 : Hardware Driver Error
Note that it is the games that give me the errors, not windows.
System specs:
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
FX5900-TD128 (running nvidia's 56.72 drivers)
Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz
768MB of DDR RAM, 266Mhz
Audigy 2
I've tried to include as much info as I can, but if theres anything else you need to provide a solution I'd be more than happy to find out and tell you.
Thanks a bunch.

Alright, not sure how to find out the IRQs themselves, but I'll just list _everything_
Gigabyte P4 Titan 667
Pentium 4 2.53Ghz
Kingston 512MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz, Generic 256MB DDR stick @ 266Mhz
MSI FX5900 TD128
Omni 400W/12V PSU
60GB Generic HDD (ST360015A)
60GB Maxtor HDD (4D06H3)
LiteOn CD-RW 52x24x52 (Primary)
NEC DvD-RW (Slave)
Sony Floppy Drive
Audigy 2
Z-640 Speakers/Sennheiser PC-150 Headphones
Microsoft Media Keyboard & Mouse (PS/2)
Also, something that I probably should have mentioned is that I've had the graphics card for quite some time without encountering this problem. The only thing that I have changed recently is swapping the DvD-RW in for a (broken) DVD drive.
I dont see how this could affect the games (I've tried using the CD and the new DVD drive for the CDs) so I would imagine it may be a driver problem. I've gone through all the drivers I have and the most recent ones from both the nvidia and MSI site.
Thanks again,
Con

FX5900-TD128 power

I recently bought an MSI Nvidia FX5900-TD128 video card and am installing it into a brand new system that I am building.
On the card is a "Power Connector", but there is no mention of plugging power to it in the documentation. Am I supposed to plug in power from my power supply to this connector?

Yes, there is a splitter wire in the box if you need it.
The fans won't spin without the extra power !

FX5900-TD128 - Dual monitor support?

?(
I'm thinking of buy a FX5900-TD128 card, but I want dual monitor support (2 CRTs). I looked on the product info page, but it doesn't explicitly say the card can actually do this... I don't want to find out the hard way by dropping $400+ on a card and then finding out it can't do something I need ;(
BTW: I assume this thing will fit fine in a 865PE Neo2-LS mobo... right?
Thanks

It would be a logical assumption that MSI's designers would get their gfx cards to fit their own mobos :D
I haven't seen anyone complain so it should be ok.
Thanks.

MSI GF FX5900 TD128 Problems

I recently bought a new GeForce FX5900 TD128 from MSI and I am having a couple of problems. I am geeting some frequent crashes in games such as Morrowind (every 30 minutes to every hours). The problem is the same in other 3D applications. Could the problem be related to DirectX9.0a? Should I reinstall DirectX8.1? Should I try seeting the BIOS (and the card) to AGP 4X? Or is the card deffective (It runs fine in 2D applications and on the desktop).
here are my system specifications:
Motherboard: MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR (Original BIOS)
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 3000+
Memory: 2X512K of Crucial DDR400 (Non Dual-Channel)
Graphic card: MSI GeForce FX5900 TD128 (Nvidia's 4.4.0.3 drivers)
Screen: Samsung Flat 19"
Sound: Onboard sound
Power Supply: Antec 480W

Sorry for getting back to you so late. I had to travel a bit for work. My card is set at AGP 4X and everything is fine. Thanks a lot. It's always the same thing when you buy new hardware... You got to be patient. At least, I got less problems then my friend with his new Radeon 9800 that crashes all the time :D.
By the way, sorry for my bad english... I come from Montreal and I'm french canadian... It's been a long time since I had to write in English...
Thanks again

Looking for MSI FX5900 TD128 BIOS !! Need to flash back from 5950

I had flashed my BIOS a couple of months back using the WFFLash utility of Leadtek and since then ive been gettin low scores on 3dmark03!
Overclocking my 5900 once get me to get a 6300 3dmark03 score and now it doesnt go over 5800 or even less!!
I was hoping if some1 could either give me a link or if some1 had the BIOS of the GPU i own, it was be grateful!!
Even has any1 else encountered this low scores after their Flash!
Oh yeah which utility do i need to re-flash - WFFLASH or NvFlash!
Hope to find some help here ! !
THanksss !!

Utk,
The BIOS is static and flashing back probably won't make things better. I believe your scores or performance is suffering from OS decay. It might be a good idea to review all the software you have installed since you flashed your BIOS and see what's running in the backround. Perhaps even a fresh install of the drivers, maybe even a fresh install of the OS.

Looking for performance degradation
Before I move on, let me point out that there's another area where benchmarking software really shines for computer users and that is in keeping an eye out for performance degradation due to OS (Operating System) Decay.
This type of problem is little understood but very common. Let's take a closer look. As you've been using your existing operating system over time, you've probably installed, upgraded, and uninstalled numerous applications. In addition, you've probably added and removed lots of hardware and device drivers. Furthermore, you may have upgraded your operating system with a multitude of patches, bug fixes, and updates.
Considering all the wear and tear these types of operations put on your operating system, chances are good that you've experienced OS decay first hand. Some of the symptoms of OS decay are frequent system lockups or crashes, strange error messages, unusually slow performance, and Windows directory that's bloated with files.
Of course you must realize that OS decay is actually a natural occurrence that results from the heavy use of your system. You could look at the OS decay problem much as you would look at an aging automobile—no matter how well you take care of it, eventually you're going to have to buy a new one.
Fortunately, you don't have to buy a new computer to solve the OS decay problem; you just have to rebuild the operating system from scratch.
As such, the question is not if you must rebuild, but when you must rebuild. If you regularly check your computer and keep tabs on your system's progress over time, you'll have a much better picture of when the OS decay has gotten so bad that it's degrading the overall performance of your system.

[GeForceFX] Geforce Fx5900 TD128 Issues

Im getting graphical artifacts on the windows boot screen and the chkdsk screen that comes up sometimes on Windows XP SP2. Occurs on boot screen on Linux as well, but everything seems fine in Windows after it boots. I've tried everything to fix this, bios updates to computer and video card. Also tried various drivers, but no luck. Also thinking of RMA'ing it, but Im worried that MSI doesn't have any 5900's left. Any advice ?

I updated the SiS drivers, Im thinking this is a BIOS issue of some sort. I even tried flashing to the latest MSI 5900 bios version. Still trying to get the time to bring this to a friend's comp to run it in. Maybe an incompatibility with my ECS K7S5A Pro motherboard ? Slot works as I put a Geforce 2MX in there and it didn't bring up the same problem. I will know more as soon as I am able to test in a friend's motherboard and will post the results
I have also managed to capture the problem, here is a link to the jpeg. http://www.evoteam.net/wc/artifact.jpg notice the vertical line on the lower right of the boot logo. This is also after a fresh install of XP and happens during boot which I suppose rules out a driver issue

Can I play HL2 with FX5900 128MB ??

Hi!
I´ve heard that there might be som problems running the new HL2 with Nvidias FX cards!
Look at:
http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/display/20030718155730.html
http://www.anandtech.com/#20106
What should we think about this....I really like Nvidia and was planing to build a new one using FX 5900 128MB.
My future unbuilt system:
* Chieftec Miditower ATX 360W 4 x 5,25",2/4 x 3,5" Silver
* MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R (MS-6728) + BIOS 1.3(2003-6-26 )
* Kingston KVR400X64C25/256 ( 2x)
* Maxtor Diamondmax9 80GB 7200RPM ATA133 8MB
* MSI FX5900-TD128(MS-8929) with nvidia driver 44.03
or Sapphire Radeon 9800 Atlantis PRO 128MB with driver 3.5
* MS Windows XP Home Edition
* Logitech Cordless Navigator trådlöst tb & mouse
What should I buy, Sapphire or MSI regarding the grafic card?
Any other suggestions or tips regarding my choice of components?
I want to be able to play HL2 and other games with nice performance.
Regards
WiGGoW

It's been posted here a page or two back, so if you must play HL2 now, I would consider the other alternative. It doesn't look good at the moment for nVidia but who's to say what will happen.

Fx5900 Xt-vtd128 S-vhs Vivo?

I think I want a FX5900 XT-VTD128. (I need VIVO)
BUT the description on the MSI site says:
TV-out (S-Video connector)
DVI Connector
Video_in (Composite Video)
Does it have both composite and s-video inputs, or just composite only?
The VIVO dongle has both types for input as well as output,
but maybe it is a generic part and the above notice means the
s-video input does not work on this card?
Thanks
Steve

Thank you so much for your kind reply.
I've got a couple more questions:
1. Does the fan block PCI slot #1?
2. Is there a fan &/or heatsink on the back side of the card?
Tom's Hardware Guide says the "twin flow" fan on the back of the
MSI FX5900 TD128 interferes with installing in some MBs but this
looks ike a different fan.
Thanks, Steve

MSI FX 5900 TD128 and Cooling Solutions!

I was curious to know if anyone here had tried or has changed the stock fans on the MSI FX5900 TD128 with any other set of cooling solutions
I had come across this Zalman ZM80C-HP + ZM-OP1(Opt.)
http://www.zalman.co.kr/usa/product/ZM80C-HP.htm
I just wanted someones help, like a senior moderator or an expert , since i myself dont know alot, bout the fact whether this cooler is any good and whether i should change my stock coolers..
While writing this post, my GPU Core temp is 46 C
Ambient Temp is 37 C
So pls if anyone out there knows anything bout cooling a FX 5900, i would be greatful for ur advice since i do wanna overclock the GPU , but am hesitant right now till i get a better cooling solution!
Thanks alot in advance!!!

Alright dude !! shall do that !!
Thanks alott for the advice!!
Like i always thought these blowers were useless! Are they any good though ?? !

MSI FX5900 128mb or 256mb

Hi all
I have decided to buy a MSI FX5900 has anyone got the specs for the
MSI FX5900-TD128 and the
MSI FX5900-VTD128 I need to know memory / clock core speeds etc. Not the ultra to expensive for what I can afford
I have found some info on the forum.
FX5900 SP-VTD128
VIVO, 400MHz core, 700MHz RAM
The MSI FX5900-TD 128mb
Product Specifications
Graphics Core: 256-bit
Memory Interface: 256-bit
Memory Bandwidth: 27.2GB/sec.
Fill Rate: 3.6 billion texels/sec.
Vertices per Second: 338 million
Memory Data Rate: 850MHz
Pixels per Clock (peak): 8
Textures per Pixel: 16
RAMDACs: 400MHz
FX5900-VTD128
VIVO, 400MHz core, 850MHz RAM
My question is how much difference will 128mb of memory compared to 256mb be using the FX5900. for games?
Thanks

Thanks. I've done my homework on just about everything. I know 2gb of ram will be in it. I'll be getting the 160GB drive because of the speed limitations of the larger disk.
Mostly, I'm having trouble finding any real numbers showing differences between 128 and 256 vid memory with motion. It's good to know it wont make much of a difference with FCE by itself.
Does anyone have a link to any benchmarks pitting the two 15" models? Specifically, with motion.
Also, kind of on a similar note, but not related to final cut, does having the 256mb version place a significant impact on battery life?
Thanks.

Difference between the Various FX5900's

Hey i own a MSI FX5900 TD128 and i was surfing the MSI site and came across like 2 more
FX5900 XT-VTD128
FX5900-VTD128
The site is : -
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/vga/vga/pro_vga_list.php?kind=2&CHIP=48&NAME=GeForce%20FX
Could someone pls tell me the difference between all of em since they all r 128MB's cards!!
Thanks alot

FX 5900 TD128 and FX 5900 VTD 128 is at same
V means that the graphic card is VIVO support (VIDEO IN-OUT)
and FX 5900 xt has a new nvidia chip on it.
but performance and quality is not changing very much

Difference of 5900

FX5900 SP-VTD128
FX5900-TD128
FX5900-VTD128
whats the difference between this 3 FX 5900 ?

Yap Yup Yop... That's the info I was looking for too , but in actual fact, the real memory clock speed was somehow at 847MHz instead of 850MHz... And the FX5950U was running at 2.0ns/950MHz!!! Wonder how much the FX5700U was running at...
Sorry for hijacking your thread, PoRsChE... Unintentional...
