  • MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr 2, how to identify it?

    Hi,
    I need to verify if the graphic card that is in my computer is really MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr 2, and not GTX560 or GTX570 (to check if i wasn't cheated...). I cannot identify it from the others twin frozr 2 cards since it has same cooling system and no distinct markings anywhere on the card, or at least i dont know about them. Computer still isn't functional, but will be later on today. I didnt receive card in package, but already installed in miditower case.
    So plz i need fast answer, if there is any visual identification i can do, or software that i can use later today to see what graphic card it is.

    tell S/N of your card
    or just run VGA software like Afterburber:

  • MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr II too hot?

    Hi
    Just purchased an MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr II (800 mhz clock). Noticed the temps seem rather higher than what I expected. With case open, Idle temps are around 42C but running (45C case closed) (ambient temp is about 18-19C) Witcher II the load temps were getting up to 88C (95C with case closed and fans at 85%). This was after about 15mins. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the load temps with case closed (95C) are getting rather close to the chips max 97C where it starts to down-clock. So, is my Card faulty?
    Steve

    Hi,
    Just a quick update. Did some experiments last night. Laid the computer on its side and held a 120mm fan directly over the video card. Idle temps went down to 36C from 42C. I then ran furmark at 1920 by 1200 res extreme burn-in. Temps never got higher than 81C. Do these temps seem normal or are they still higher than what they should be? The heat sink on the video card gets extremely hot to touch at load, so plenty of heat is being transfered. The case, by-the-way, is a Lian-Li V1000 plus which has the motherboard placed in an upside-down config, so that the video card is at the top and processor below. This it got me thinking that air is getting trapped at the top and the venting fan isn't strong enough to pull the hot air out quick enough.

    I downloaded the rar that you attached , did what you told me to do ...i run GPU-Z and it shows that the BIOS version is the number 70.10.17.00.01 ,Is this the latest bios or is it the old one.????
    This number will remain the same.
    If you want to check current VBIOS version installed:

  • MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr II OC Edition; Battlefield 3 green squares artifact crash.

    Greetings respected moderators!
    I came to your forum because I seek your help. Allow me to explain my problem. Today when I've played Battlefield 3 after a while my game crashed - it froze in place. The screen displayed small green square artifacts all over the screen. I had to force shut down the game with task manager in order to resume using my computer. I've restarted my game and continued playing it until it happened two more times in a short amount of time. Then I've decided to look into it.
    This is what my screen looked liked, although this image is not mine. I'm only using it as a reference.
    The most interesting thing is that I've only had this happen to me(exactly the same type of crash) once or twice in the past when I still had the old drivers. Back then I was using High video settings in my game. About a week or so ago I formatted my computer and installed the latest NVIDIA drivers - 310.90. This time I was using the lowest video settings in my game. Yet the game crashed more than it did with the higher settings. This puzzles me...
    I did some research on the internet and what I've found out is that this type of crash is very commonly associated with GTX 580. Users with the same problems posted on many forums and the replies they got were all sorts of possible reasons why this crash occurs. One of them is being overheating. I've tested that and ran my game the fourth time after my third crash, and the temperatures of the GPU didn't go over 70°C. Then I've also did a stress test with MSI Kombustor and the temperature stayed under 70°C. So I believe I can exclude overheating.
    The next very common thing that users wrote was that the GTX 580's core voltage was set too low by factory default, causing this type of crash with DirectX 11 games while playing them. By manually increasing the voltage it seemed that it was the most common fix for the problem. According to MSI Afterburner my core voltage is 1025 and people on the forums suggested raising it to 1100, therefore fixing their crashing.
    Third thing that I've read was that this is caused by the latest 310.90 drivers. Some users with the problems reverted to the old drivers and the crashing stopped, while it didn't fix it for others.
    Now my questions is: Why did my game start crashing all of a suddenly, in such way on lowest video settings and so frequently, when I could play it for months on end with higher settings without a single crash?
    I do not want to overclock my GPU and unfortunately I do not remember which were the NVIDIA drivers I was using before I formatted my computer.
    I thank you in advance, wise moderators of this forum and hope that you will be able to help me.
    Have a wonderful day! 

    Good day to you Svet!
    Like I've wrote before, the only changes I did to my computer were the updates that came with Live Update 5. I only installed driver updates through that. I did it regularly ever since I've got my computer 7 months ago. Back in those 7 months the crash only happened once or twice.
    Then a week ago I formatted my computer completely, reinstalled Windows 7 and also applied all of the available updates that came with Live Update 5. I've also downloaded the latest NVIDIA GPU drivers. The game worked flawlessly for the whole week until it started crashing yesterday.
    Also I had no idea that the overheating could start at under 70°C, especially because I have two extra fans installed, one in the front and one in the back of my case so that there is regular flow of cold air, which enters in the front and exits at the back.

  • MSI gtx580 twin frozr III PE

     Hi
    i play around with AB from time to time.
    And nowdays when i use 857core adn 205/2015mem i get wierd stuf on screen during heaven but the temps are as good as they can be i also use like 78-80% fan speed just to make sure the temps don´t go too high and they are almost never above 64C core and 55C mem vrm is like 50C
    so if i get artifacts in heaven and the temps are like 48C isn´t that a bit strange?
    Voltage is stock i can and will not tamper with that.
    same clock in say D3 or 3D mark 11 don´t give those wierd stuff i get in heaven also heaven crashse more and the driver stoopped respoding error is also very common when using oc on core above 840Mhz
    so is it really artifacts in heaven or is it due to beta drivers?
    like 305.53,304,92 well i also get those wierd color flashes with WHQL drivers.
    but not in 3d mark 11 and not ni Diablo 3
    well i hope i wrote all this preatt understandable

    well i don´t really dare to tamper with voltages, thing is i´m afraid i might up it just a little too much and burn the card.
    Even though it is a PE and should be safe to maybe just up a little but still it is no foolproof thing
    ok no mem but find a stable core, doers it mean that no"driver stopped reponding" errors?

  • GTX580 Twin Frozr II bsod..

    Hey guys. I have recently purchased an MSI GTX580 Twin Frozr II OC edition and I am encountering blue screens of death after playing battlefield and call of duty black ops.. The time period I get those bsod is not specific, in other words I may get one after 10 minutes or after 1 hour. To be honest, that's what worries me the most.
    I have updated the vbios to the latest one with 1.025v and 800/1600/2048 Mhz. Furthermore, the blue screens I am getting don't splash and go right away. Actually the bsod stays there untill I reset my pc and they say about newly added hardware and stuff. I uploaded the dump file for you so you can help me.. https://rapidshare.com/files/459837240/043011-7831-01.dmp
    I couldn't figure out how to upload the .dmp file to the forum so if there is any problem with the link I provided please tell me.

    You have to..,
    800MHz, 4096MHz are the right clocks for your card and not 822...4276

    It will be still OC-ed, stock/reference clocks are 772MHz,4008MHz,
    while you will have 800MHz, 4096MHz as OC version

    Would I just use the installer that is on this site to flash the bios, any help appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thankyou very much Svet,
    The card and operating system(8.1) works perfect now.
    What I did was, extract the files you gave me, and downloaded the ATIWinflash program,
     then I put the .150 file in the same folder, then renamed the .150 file to a .rom file,
    and used ATIWinflash to flash vbios(too lazy to go to the store), only took about 10 secs, then rebooted, and no more watermark :-),
    Thanks again for your help.
    I am glad I found this site or I would probably be just living with the watermark( Then again I don't think so, it was driving me crazy)

  • Request: Latest UEFI / GOP vBIOS for MSI R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC

    Hello there!
    I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit and would like to upgrade to the latest UEFI / GOP vBIOS for my MSI R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC please.
    I ran GPU-Z and have posted my current vBIOS here:
    stoguild.info/pitcairn.zip
    Thank you in advance!

    No, that's not the S/N. If there's no other sticker that's bad. According to your provided vbios this gop one should be right:
    >>TV274MH.100<<
    Create a bootable usb stick (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165175.0). Then unpack the previously provided archive and put the included file (TV274MH.100) on that stick. Rename TV274MH.100 to TV274MH.rom. Put the atiflash.exe also on the USB stick. Now boot from the stick. Type atiflash -p -f -noaper 0 TV274MH.rom [ENTER] and let it flash the vbios.

  • MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II Random Crashes

    Hello,
    I have had an MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II video card for the past year, and it has been operating without problems for most of that time. I have been slowly upgrading my computer over past 5 years, but keeping the same motherboard and CPU. A few months ago I started having issues with it:
    While playing video games or browsing the internet the video drivers crash and recover after a few seconds at random times, approximately once every half an hour. 30% of the time, the card crashes and doesn't recover at all, with a black screen, prompting a restart of the system.
    Last month I have rebuilt my PC: kept the same the video card, 750W power supply (both 1 year old) and all my hard drives. I reinstalled the same version of Windows 7. I made sure to take precautions against static in the process. However the problem persists.
    Because I have my power button set to a restart, I am able to have the computer perform a soft reboot every time when the screen goes black, rather than forcing a hard reset, so to me this means the new CPU, Motherboard and RAM are working OK. Also on occasion switching my monitor cable between the two DVI outputs brings the image back.
    Here are some of the other things I have tried so far unsuccessfully:
    Updating the motherboard and bios drivers to the latest version
    Using a tool to delete and reinstall latest ATI drivers (12.9)
    Using ATI beta drivers (12.11b)
    Using both windows and 3rd party memory check tools (both came back OK)
    Changing RAM settings from 1600 to 1333.
    Underclocking the video card (although it runs pretty cold and I have a dedicated fan installed right underneath it).
    I will welcome any other suggestions.
    Thank you in advance,

    Here is an update on my situation:
    I went out a bought a new PSU, Antec HCG-620M, but the problem didn't go away. I'm still trying to keep up with the latest drivers. However most games that require high performance (i.e. Witcher 2 out of the older, more stable games) remain unplayable due to fairly regular random video card crashes. Older games with lower specs play fine though. I have also been running SpeedFan in the background and have seen an occasional spikes in the video card's operating temperatures (as high as 81C) but crashes occur at any temperature.
    Help would still be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Random freeze on boot with MSI R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC PCIe

    Hello everyone,
    I have an issue with my MSI R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC PCIe graphics card. Sometimes, on boot (before getting to BIOS, I guess during GFX BIOS, if that's a thing anymore in the computing world) the GPU fans will spin at a considerable speed (noisy, I'd say 70-100%) and the system will refuse to boot. I could reproduce this around 5 to 6 times, and always during cold boots. After this happens, rebooting or powering off and on will not work, I'll need to cut off all power (PSU switch) and cold-boot again.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot!

    can you list full system specifications? read >>Posting Guide<<
