MSI 560GTX-Ti Hawk - Very high Memory Temp issue

Ok, I really don't want to hijack the other thread, so I'll start my own. I installed my MSI 560GTX-Ti Hawk last night, and noticed extremely high memory temps while playing Dragon Age II. Tonight, I was able to investigate this a little further, and found that my memory temps will stay consistent for a while, and then spike suddenly. For example, I had DA2 running. I was just staring at the same location (not moving in-game). I had the mem temps on the on-screen display, and would look over every few minutes. For about 20 minutes, the memory temp was locked at about 60C. Then, all of the sudden, I had a reading of 95C. I alt-tabbed out to Afterburner, and saw that there was a sudden spike.
There was no reason for this spike to occur (no voltage/clock/fan changes). However, once the temp spiked up, it didn't want to go down. After closing out the game, the temp would (VERY slowly) start to go down. After a while, the was a reverse spike, in which the temp dropped big time (opposite of how it went up). It almost seems as if the heatsink is coming out of contact with the memory after the temps have been high for a while, at which point the temps go REALLY high.
Has anybody else experienced this? I am thinking of RMAing the board since I can duplicate this consistently, and it's not just a random freak occurrence. While I haven't had any problems with corruption in-game, I am thinking it might be best to swap out the board before problems occur.
Thoughts?

Check with another game - if it happens there as well
RMA
Haven't tried it on another game, but ran folding@home (GPU3), and it did the same thing. I think I am going to call Newegg and RMA it.

what BIOS you have? for another way
your GPU temp is too much high
check your GPU ambient with AIDA64 playing 20 minutes, if you have a high GPU ambient temp, your problem is your case
I don't know which BIOS I have. Whatever came with the card.
The GPU temp topped out at 78C. That was at stock voltages, and running Dragon Age II with max settings (DX11, and all options cranked), with the video card's fans on "Silent Mode". I don't know the card that well, so I don't know if that is normal or not. Ambient in the room was about 72F. My case is an Antec P182. I have 2x120mm exhaust fans running.
After adjusting the GPU core voltage, I could get the card down to about 71C in the same game, and the fan wouldn't spin up past 48% or so (virtually silent).
It's the memory temps that are concerning me, and it particular, the way they seem to spike all of the sudden for no reason. I think I am going to RMA it, and see if my replacement card does the same.

MSI GTX560 Ti Hawk - underclocking and lowering temp/fan noise

So the most common feedback about the MSI GTX 560 is that it runs hot and it's noisy.
What happens if i underclock via Afterburner? Surely i don't need it to run the card OC right there's plenty of frames available..... when i underclock i can't seem to notice any difference when i'm playing BC2. My frame rates are still approx 80-over 100+, that's high right?
Is frame rates the key factor in a smooth game play - what reduced frame rate should be be avoiding? Anything else to watch out for?
What else can i adjust in Afterburner to get the card to run cooler and quieter? - i read that i shouldn't reduce the memory speed though.......since that can slow down the processing.......

I'm no expert but I am having temp and noise issues with an MSI 560 card so I'm sharing what i know.
Overclocking is often a kudos thing.
The actual framerate increases are marginal unless you are hovering around the 24fps avg mark then juicing the card a bit can get you above 30fps mark ( a gamers minimum)
I to don't like to hear a hair-dryer in my PC when I game so to get the fans to go slower you need to make the card produce less heat.
Undervolting does not effect framerate , reducing voltage reduces heat but, if pushed to far, will cause games to crash out or artefact meaning you need to add a bit more back in.
Technically you can run the card at 99 degrees and you could could maintain that temperature at a lower fan speed than trying to run the card at 70 degrees.
You could try to find a stable undervolt (a good few hours of gaming with no artefacts of crashed) with every other setting at stock.
To find an acceptable fan profile you can run a game windowed (so you can keep an eye on temps) put lots of AA onthe game just to make sure the gpu is at 100%. See how high the temp goes, you can then find your optimum balance between heat and fan noise.
I personally want my card at about 70 degrees under load (allowing it to touch 80 on a hot day when playing games for hours)

Very high memory usage..possible memory leak? Solaris 10 8/07 x64

Hi,
I noticed yesterday that my machine was becoming increasingly slow, where once it was pretty snappy. It's a Compaq SR5250NX with 1GB of RAM. Upon checking vmstat, I noticed that the "Free" column was ~191MB. Now, the only applications I had open were FireFox 2.0.11, GAIM, and StarOffice. I closed all of them, and the number reported in the "Free" column became approximately 195MB. "Pagefile" was about 5.5x that size. There were no other applications running and it's a single user machine, so I was the only one logged in. System uptime: 9 days.
I logged out, logged back in, to see if that had an affect. It did not. Rebooted and obviously, that fixed it. Now with only FireFox, GAIM, and a terminal open, vmstat reports "Free" as ~450MB. I've noticed if I run vmstat every few seconds, the "Free" total keeps going down. Example:

In any event, we can see that FireFox is sucking up 145MB (??!?!!? crazy...) XSun, 200MB, and java 190MB. I'm running Java Desktop System (Release 3) so I assume that is what accounts for the the high memory usage RE: java process. But, XSun, 200MB?
Is this normal and I just need to toss another gig in, or what?
Thanks

Very high memory usage with Yahoo Mail

After using Yahoo Mail for an hour or so my memory usage increases to a very high level.
Just now, after reading and deleting about 50 e-mails (newsletters etc.) I noticed Firefox 17 running slowly and checked the memory usage in Windows Task Manager (I am using XP) and it was 1.2 Gb. My older laptop only has 2 Gb of RAM. Yahoo Mail was the only thing open at the time.
I never notice this problem with Gmail which I mainly use. However I use Yahoo Mail for quite a few newsletters etc. that are less important and which I only check once a week or so.
I found the following bug report about 3 years old which almost exactly describes my problem.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=506771
But this report involves a much earlier Firefox version, and at the end it seems to say that the problem was fixed. However it well describes my current issue with Firefox 17, especially the continual increase in memory while using the up/down arrow keys to scroll through Yahoo e-mails.
Is this normal to have to shut down and reopen Firefox every hour or so to clean out the memory? For some reason I only notice this when using Yahoo Mail. After using many other sites and having multiple tabs open for several hours I rarely reach that kind of memory usage. About the highest I've seen with other sites after a couple of hours is 600 Kb which is roughly when I start notice slower response times.

Very high memory usage since upgrading to 3.6.4

Since upgrading 3 days ago FF pretty much runs up to 500mb as a floor and can get up to 800mb of memory. I had this issue with 3.5 but it vanished with 3.6 and was living in bliss as it rarely broke 250 mb.
I haven't added any extensions nor made any other changes. Is anyone else experiencing this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upgraded to 3.6.4

Hello everyone.
If you are having problems with RAM/CPU usage, do this:
#run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe-mode] to disable all extensions, themes and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins, themes or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions, themes and [https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ plugins] in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. Also, try the theme you want to have installed so see if that is what's causing the problem. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension/theme, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons. If you want to keep using those problematic add-ons, please contant their author for support.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#try reinstalling Firefox. No data will be lost. You can get the latest version for free at [http://www.getfirefox.com/ getfirefox.com]. If that doesn't fix the problem, proceed;
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix your issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable them to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't work, proceed to the following point;
#update your modem/router software. There have been some reports that some modem/router software may cause Firefox and other browsers to loose performance and/or stability. If updating doesn't fix your issue, try other versions of the software, if possible. If you need support with this, contact your modem/router manufacturer. If this doesn't help, proceed;
#clean up your OS registry, using appropriate software. Make sure you've followed my instructions correctly, but if this all doesn't work, [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles create a new Firefox profile] (this can be temporary, of course) and see if the issues persist. Report here the results, so we can help you further.

Very High Memory Usage

It never happened before and today it overloaded my PC so i had to force restart.
I use 2 keyword research applications. They start to shoot up to almost 600MB of RAM when i am researching keywords. When i minimize program after research, the memory usage drops to 32MB. When i restore window back, these 32MBs turn back into 600MB.
I tried downgrading Adobe Air to version 2.0.4 and that didn't help. Upgrading to the newest version didn't help.
What is the problem?

Hi Boris,
The memory usage is very dependent on the application and how it handles it's resources. Have you contacted the developers of the two applications to see if your findings are consistent with their testing? You mentioned that the memory footprint is the same between 2.0.2 and 2.5, do you know if it increased after 1.5.3?
Having the memory usage drop to a fraction of it's normal size when minimized is consistent with normal Windows behavior.
Thanks,
Chris

Very high memory consumption of B1i and cockpit widgets

Hi all,
finally I have managed it to install B1i successfully, but I think something is wrong though.
Memory consumption in my test environment (Win2003, 1024 MB RAM), while no other applications and no SAP addons are started:
tomcat5.exe 305 MB
SAP B1 client 315 MB
SAP B1DIProxy.exe 115 MB
sqlservr.exe 40 MB
SAPB1iEventSender.exe 15 MB
others less than 6 MB and almost only system based processes...
For each widget I open (3 default widgets, one on each standard cockpit), the tomcat grows bigger and leaves less for the sql server, which has to fetch all the data (several seconds on 100% of CPU usage).
Is this heavy memory consumption normal? What happens if several users are logged into SAP B1 using widgets?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Sebastian

Hi Gordon,
so this is normal? Then I guess the dashboards are not suitable for many customers, especially for them who are working on a terminal server infrastructure. Even if the tomcat server has this memory consumption only on the SAP server, when each client needs about 300 MB (and add some hundred for the several addons they need!), I could not activate the widgets. And generally SAP B1 is not the only application running at the customers site. Suggesting to buy more memory for some Xcelsius dashboards won't convince the customer.
I hope that this feature will be improved in the future, otherwise the cockpit is just an extension of the old user menu (except for the brilliant quickfinder on top of the screen).
Regards
Sebastian

Sudden high memory usage, can't find cause

I did a big update yesterday, and today I've started to notice very high memory usage. I wasn't keeping track before so I can't say how much it increased, but I've never had problems before, and the slowness and lack of responsiveness have been noticeable, though I haven't ruled out other possible causes for that. Here's the output of 'free -m':

Mem: 7971 7826 144 0 1 149
-/+ buffers/cache: 7674 296
Swap: 9215 458 8757
It wasn't as bad as that right after startup, though usage still seemed suspiciously high. What makes this whole thing a mystery to me is that none of my running processes seem to be using that much memory! Here's the output of 'top -b -n 1':

I wouldn't expect the '%MEM's to add up to exactly the real usage, but this isn't even close! So, what could be using up all of my memory? I have /tmp mounted to ram, but that's only a few megabytes. I really have no idea where to go from here.
The relevant portion of my pacman log is below, since I don't know how to get just a compact list of the updated packages. Most notably, the kernel was upgrades, from 3.9.9-1 to 3.10.3-1.

Okay, so it turns out that this was caused by the Catalyst bug described in this post. Reverting to the 13.6 version solved the problem. Lesson learned: if there's a ton of memory being used that isn't owned by a running process, start looking for bug reports involving drivers. Especially drivers known for being, well, pretty bad. Was there any method I could have used that would have told me that Catalyst was using all my ram, or is kernel-space memory usage pretty much a black box?

ASR1001 High Memory Usage - Healthy?

Hi,
My SolarWinds NPM shows very high memory utization (up to 99%) on all ASR1001. CLI outpu belows confirms this:

Is this considered 'healthy' as in shown in the output?
Thanks.

Hi,
This is not normal. There are a couple of things that you should look at.
1-You don't have enough memory on the router and so you need to install more memory.
2-There is feature or could be bug that is hugging up 99% of your memory.
If this is a critical router for you, I suggest you start analyzing the issue sooner than later.
Opening a ticket with TAC may be the first step.

High memory consumption in XSL transformations (XSLT)

Hello colleagues!
We have the problem of a very high memory consumption when transforming XML
files with CALL TRANSFORMATION.
Code example:
CALL TRANSFORMATION /ipro/wml_translate_cls_ilfo
SOURCE XML lx_clause_text
RESULT XML lx_temp.
lx_clause_text is a WordML xstring (i.e. it is a Microsoft Word file in XML
format) and can therefore not be easily splitted into several parts.
Unfortunately this string can get very huge (e.g. 50MB). The problem is that
it seems that CALL TRANSFORMATION allocates memory for the source and result
xstrings but doesn't free them after the transformation.
So in this example this would mean that the transformation allocates ~100MB
memory (50MB for source, ~50MB for result) and doesn't free it. Multiply
this with a couple of transformations and a good amount of users and you see
we get in trouble.
I found this note regarding the problem: 1081257
But we couldn't figure out how this problem could be solved in our case. The
note proposes to "use several short-running programs". What is meant with
this? By the way, our application is done with Web Dynpro for ABAP.
Thank you very much!
With best regards,
Mario Düssel

Hi,
q1. how come the Ram consumption is increased to 99% on all the three boxes?If we continue with the theory that network connectivity was lost between the hosts, the Coherence servers on the local hosts would form their own clusters. Prior to the "split", each cache server would hold 1/12 of the primary and 1/12 of the backup (assuming you have one backup). Since Coherence avoids selecting a backup on the same host as the primary when possible, the 4 servers on each host would hold 2/3 of the cache. After the spit, each server would hold 1/6 of the primary and 1/6 of the backup, i.e., twice the memory it previously consumed for the cache. It is also possible that a substantial portion of the missing 1/3 of the cache may be restored from the near caches, in which case, each server would then hold 1/4 of the primary and 1/4 of the backup, i.e., thrice the memory it previously consumed for the cache.
q2: where is the cache data stored in the coherence servers?on which memory?The cache data is typically stored in the jvm's heap memory area.
Have you reviewed the logs?
Regards,
Harv

560ti Hawk Memory reading very high.

Hello Svet,
I'm also having problems with my memory temp reading abnormally high. 560ti Hawk.
I see you are helping people with a custom vBIOS? What is the change that you are doing and is it basically cosmetic or does it have a deeper function. For instance, is the high memory temperature reported by MSI Afterburner correct? Can it cause the computer/vid card to bug out/shutdown? Does your update hopefully fix that?
Where can I find my serial number and why do you need it? I looked through the faqs and couldn't find this info.
My card bios info that I could find via NiBiTor
Device ID 1200
Sub vender ID 1462
Sub System ID 2601
My Bios version is: 70.24.2E.00.002
Thanks for any help you can give me, sorry I thought using other threads would help reduce clutter.

Very high temp. with GNB MAX

Hello, i have a problem with my MSI GNB MAX motherboard and my p4 3,06 ghz
My cpu temperatures are very high, with a maximum of 85/86c,,, is this normal??
Anyone else having a similar problem like this?
MSI GNB MAX (ms-6565) motherboard
P4 3,06 ghz processor with standaard p4 cooler
1024 mb DDR 266 mhz (dual) memory
Geforce 4 mx videocard
60Gb Maxtor ATA133 HD
Promedium Mars case with a total of 6 fans
(not overclocked)

If Vcor is 1.4 (I'm running 1.525 but reads 1.47 in PCAlert), AND fsb is set for 134, AND your HSF is running AND has good contact, there is no way for it to be that hot. The stock HSF is a pretty good part. I would suggest getting a temperature probe and touching it to the base edge of the HSF to see if you are really that hot. In Bios, I have the cut off threshold at 65C and alarm at 63C. I dont know the exact conversion but 86C is near hot enough to boil water. The laquer from the chip would probably begin to melt and create an odor.

Msi 560 ti hawk memory temperature issues

Hello,
I have the same problem seen on this topic https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=160911.0. It was old so i opened a new one.
I'm searching for the bios mentionned in this topic because all links are dead.
The french support doesn't help me.
Could anyone share me the bios file please ?
thanks

Can't switch to performance one: my MB, which is Asrock Z68 Extreme4 doesn't won't let me switch.
Performance mode = error code 62, which is= Installation of the South Bridge Runtime Services.
I upgraded BIOS on my board and now I don't have error code but only a black screen.
Still, it shouldn't matter weather it is performance on or not, my memory temperatures are like:
- after boot: around 32
- while playing for example Guild Wars 2 it goes up to 70 and around that magic number there is a sudden spike to 90 and it reaches 95ish
- after turning the game off, temperature stays at 71
In order to go back to idle temperature 31 I need to turn my PC off and turn in on. If I choose reboot it stays at 71.
Contacted MSI official support, but I think it will take them a while to find a solution.
boot with silent, then within windows, switch to performance one and save the vbios,
and upload it.
Quote from: XFM on 04-December-12, 06:56:51
I just noticed today that memory temp on mine running f@h is 104-105C, I guess if that's to be expected with current BIOS I won't worry about it and leave VBIOS as is for now.
S/N ..? current vbios?

Msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks

Hello.
My msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks.
OC core clock up to 1000MHz gives similar results.
OC core clock past 1000MHz will stuck it at 1000MHz. Example i set core clock to 1040MHz and run 3DMark11,but
during the test it never exceeds 1000MHz.
Card is 15 months old and worked normally so far.
My OC results before was
core clock 1000MHz Core Voltage 1.075V
core clock 1040MHz Core Voltage 1.088V
core clock 1100MHz Core Voltage 1.100V max temps ~78C
I never raised core clock over 1100 and memory clock over 2275.
Things i'm done so far
used 310.90 310.70 306.97 306.23 301.42 drivers
disabled antivirus
mounted card out of the case and switched vbios in silence mode
used Afterburner 2.2.3 Evga Precision X
reinstalled windows7
reverted cpu to stock clocks
Any advice?
System
MB: msi z68-gd65 (B3) bios V22.8
cpu: i5-2500K
gpu: msi gtx 560ti hawk
psu: corsair TX750V2 (62 amp 12 rail)
ram: G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 2x4g 1600
os: Windows7 SP1

No! Nvidia controlpanel was set to max perfomans and windows power options to high perfomance.
I changed nvidia to adaptive (windows stayed high perf) and now the clocks to come down again.
Thanks Svet!
There is still a OC problem when i set core clock over 1000MHz.
I just ran 3dmark11 at following overclock core 1040MHz
shader 2080MHz
memory 2100
core voltage 1.075+0.013
In results window the 3dmark11 says core clock 1040.
Afterburner 2.3.1 monitoring window says max core clock 1000
shader 2000
memory 2099
Although i´m not seeing shader adjusting bar in 2.3.1, there are only core clock adjusting bar.
But adjusting a core clock will adjust shader x2. Am i right?
