R7970 problem with temperature sensor?

So last month I RMA'd my R7970 and I just received it in the mail. Originally my problem was I had artifacting lines, and occasionally freezes. In the time between that I had ordered a 5450 just as a temporary card.
When I got my 7970 back I removed the 5450 and placed the 7970 in its place. However after booting up my computer the fans started going on max speed every few seconds while online. I looked at the temperature according to afterburner and it says its at 70c where my previous card was probably around 50 during normal use. I tried playing skyrim but it's not the funnest thing to play when you have the sound of a fan blowing at 50 mph. And while playing this the temperature went up to ~95c
The reason I'm thinking theres a problem with the censor is that I felt the exhaust from the pci slot and though it was warm, it was not 95 degrees of hot. I turned off the computer and took out the graphics card and placed it back in thinking that was the problem but its still just as loud. I figured I'd post here first and see if maybe I did something wrong before contacting MSI directly.
My specs are:
CPU: AMD 8350
mobo: gigabyte ga 990 fxa ud3
gpu: R7970-2PMD3GD5
psu: corsair cx 750
ram: gskill 16gb ddr3 1600(?)mhz

Hi I've replaced  the paste on two msi 7870 as they do an awfull job of applying by putting about six times to much on. I used a Noctua NT H1 non conductive paste just a very tiny pea size and the temps have dropped by 10%c on both cards. They are now in crossfire mode and pretty quiet although obviously they run hotter in crossfire mode but max out at 65%c. I had to RMA one of these cards just two weeks ago as the temp diode set the fan at full speed once it hit about 60%c which was intolerable as I expect yours is. They sent me a replacement card and didn't query that I had broken the warranty seal when I replaced the thermal paste. I'm surprised at how hot your 7970 gets although I've never used one is that normal for this card, is it in a decent sized case, is something stopping one of the fans from moving eg a power wire etc. sounds silly but I had this problem with a small form shuttle a motherboard wire had to be reouted on a twin fan card for that reason. Hope you get it sorted

    Hello i have one IPhone 4S and I use 3G net in my mobile sometime I have problem with temperature in my phone at the SIM card or battery how can I fix this problem. By update or version of 6.1.3

    Could it be because the SIM card got damaged while I cut it to fit the IPhone?
    Very likely. Hard to believe the carrier in Mexico doesn't have a micro-SIM card available.
    Or somehow the Chinese carrier found out and locked it?
    No, which is not possible.
    What can I do? Get a new SIM and see if it works again?
    Get a micro-SIM from the carrier in Mexico that you don't have to manually cut down. If that carrier doesn't provide one, switch to another carrier that is not so low-budget.

  • Little problems with two sensors

    Hi
    I've got a problem with two sensors.
    First, the luminosity sensor. I'd like to set the brightness to a fixed value. It would not vary from darkness to bright sunlight.
    Then, when i'm typing in landscape mode, it often switches back to portrait mode, wich make me terribly angry as i lose too much time.
    How can i solve these two problems ?
    Is there a special app?
    Last, but least, does anyone know if an app that would allow to take HDR/exposure blending pictures exist ? It'd take 3 to 5 photos with different exposures, and if it merged them to a good tonemapped picture it would be perfect.
    Thanks

     The light sensor can't be set to a fixed permanent value using the phones default settings, I'm afraid. You can only adjust it's sensitivity. However, some users have reported using an app to keep the screen set at maximum brightness.
     The motion sensor which switches the phone screen orientation has become more sensitive after the recent PR 1.1 update, so not a lot can be done about that either, apart from trying to hold the phone as steady  as possible when using it.
    Finally, there isn't any HDR available for the N8 at this time, nor is there any setting to increase the exposure time to something like a second, which would be a nice feature to add to  a great camera.
     All the best.

  • N560GTX-Ti problem with temperature

    Hi,
    I am owner of MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC graphic card and I have some problems
    with temperature. I don't know if it is normal, but when i turn on my computer, I have temperature about
    30°C (running only programs like steam, icq) and when I start some old game like MW2 or CSS, temperature
    rises from 30°C to more than 70°C! and I think it is too high. Fan is working on 100%.
    I have windows 7/64bit, newest drivers and windows often tells me when I'm playing game that i should change my desktop
    to less demanding. I'm not sure if im translating this good :(. Later I can post that warning.
    Please, what should I do? It is normal? or should I buy new fan or what? I don't know what to do.
    Thanks for any reply

    1, I have 3 fans in my case. Here is photo.
    2, This is how my graphics card looks like from behind.
    Hope this will help

  • Problems with temperature (Outlook 2013)

    Hi guys,
    Anyone had any problems with the temperature in Outlook as I have?

    Hi,
    We have the same Issue. 
    I have turned off the Exchange-Cache-Mode via accountsettings in Outlook. Restarted Outlook. Et voila! The Problem is gone. After that, I reenabled the Cache-Mode and the bug is still gone. But a few days later the bug happens again in the exact same way.
    When I change the weather location there is no fix. Changing the location alters the file C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\RoamCache\Stream_Weather_randomhashvalue.dat. Deleting that file doesn't help either.
    The Problem is definetly client-based. Outlook 2013 (32-Bit) only. It appeared after 14.10.2014 which was teh Patchday for this month. Maybe it is a bug in an update? Maybe this one?http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2889951
    I'll try to uninstall this Hotfix.

    Using iPhone 4 (1 Day Old)

    I don't believe this is fixed and have rised the issue with Apple. I did what was asked on the link provided and still the problem persisted.
    Could I ask if the problem came about via upgrading the iOS from 3.1.x to 4?
    I've done a clean install of the iOS...meaning I wipe everything.... and it looks like it might have worked.

  • 3D Solidworks Model with Temperature Sensors

    Hey all,
    For my senior design project, I've been trying to create a incorporate my Solidworks model that I have previously into my Labview program. I have watched a few tutorials outlining different ways to incorporate a Solidworks model and test stress and movement of this model. For my application, I am trying to incorporate around 16 different heat sensors in different positions around this model in Labview. I want my program to give a 3D representation of the positions of these sensors in space so that the user knows exactly where a certain temperature reading is occurring. This way, the user can pinpoint the position in this model where the temperature is increasing or decreasing. I am having a great deal of trouble trying to create this code and haven't found any tutorials outlining similar situations as mine. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could go about creating this code? How does one incorporate heat sensors into a Solidworks model via Labview? Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    jab10015,
    I initially saw this and asked Spicy to jump in because I thought you were trying to interface with Solidwords directly. Your latest post made me realize I had misunderstood the question, and I believe I have an answer for you. Just to make sure, you're wanting to take physical measurements and then map them on to a virtual 3D model within LabVIEW, correct?
    If so, there is an express VI that you can find under the programming/graphics and sound/3d picture control/helpers that is called Sensor Mapping (provided you're running a LabVIEW 8.6 or higher). It sounds like it will do what you're after.
    As far as documentation for it goes, you can find the manual page here:

  • The same old problem with temperatures (K8N Neo Platinum)

    I have problems since bios v1.0 on my K8N Neo Platinum with temeparutes.
    I have installed a Prometeia Mach II St colling unit
    I Tested the v1.0 official bios, the temperature was allways -65º full ou idle, what it is impossivel.
    In the moment i flashed the bios to v1.2b5, temperature changed to 49º, and I did not move in nothing. The same temperature appears in all bios since v1.2b5. Now I have the v1.4b2 bios
    Sorry the Bad English

    Here are the instructions to reflash the BIOS for your K8 Neo. I am currently running ver.1.4 with little problems. My only snafu is the LED for my optical mouse stays lit even when system is off, however I have no RAID, Ethernet, onboard sound, or SATA drives. I have just a simple basic system, and I don't overclock. My board is the K8 Neo Platinum socket 754, with an AMD64 3000+. YOU MUST HAVE A FLOPPY DRIVE CONNECTED TO SYSTEM FOR THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO WORK!.
    Flashing BIOS on K8 Neo per MSI. READ ALL instructions before starting.
    1.Check your BIOS for flashing protection and disable it.
    2. Know your board model#. a. Open case and find model# on the board between the PCI slots, or b., boot system and at first DOS screen you will see 'W7030ver1.4122101'. This means you have a MSI model 7030 motherboard with BIOS version 1.4 issued on 12/21/01.
    3.Download the Bios that matches your motherboard model and version#.(I believe the Neo Plat had two versions, 1.0 and 1.1). I have 1.0. It will be found between the PCI slots. Create a folder on C: drive labeled 'C:\TEST'
    4.EXtract the BIOS file to C:\TEST folder.
    5.Create a boot floppy. For XP, at Desktop double click My Computer, right click floppy drive, click Format to format the disk, then click 'Create MS-DOS Boot Disk'.
    6. Set boot order to floppy. Hit F11 to select boot device.
    7. Insert boot floppy and restart system.
    8. At A:\ prompt type in the following,
    C:\ (enter)
    cd\TEST(enter)
    awdfl833c(space)w7030nms.130
    The w7030nms.130 is the BIOS file name you downloaded to C:\TEST. Keep in mind you're dealing with DOS file names, so you may need to open a DOS window in Windows, and search C drive for the TEST folder and write down the DOS file name of the BIOS file BEFORE you start the BIOS update.
    9. Reboot when prompted. It shouldn't take more than 10 seconds to update the BIOS.

  • MSI 651 Combo / MS6769 Problem with Temperature

    Hi. I´m having some troubles with my mb, since 2 weeks ago. Suddenly, it starts to appear that cpu temperature go 70 º C (158 º F), and i hadn´t do anything. I changed the cooler, and put some new grease, and nothing happen. Then i searched in this forum, and i found a message simmilar, that said something about upgrade bios, and thas what i recently do (WS6769 v1.0 originally, then V1.3, then V1.2). But nothing...
    What should i do? buy another mb? I don´t want to.
    Thanks.
    Claudio

    Well, i´m pretty sure that it is the mother board, because, i already changed all what´s possible to change: processor, RAM, hd, power supply, processor.
    Din: I don´t know what´s "corecenter". I already upgraded BIOS (to v1.2 that supuestly fix my problem), and put thermal paste (grease? in spanish "pasta disipadora") between CPU cooler and CPU. And i do change the processor (i put a p4 1,8GHz), with other FAN processor (CPU cooler), and the same temperature.
    Danny:Those details you ask me:
    In a label on the power supply (lVoltage MAXAmpere): +5V 30A, +3.3V 20A, +12V 15A, -12V 0.8A, -5V 0.5A, +5Vsb 2.5A.
    It is a Maxpower 300 Watts ATX, model PX300.
    On BIOS PC Health: Sys Temp: 18ºC/66ºF, CPU Temp 66ºC/150ºF (up to 70ºC), CPU Fan speed 2909 RPM, Vcore 1.68V, 3.3V 3.26V, +5V 5.10V, +12V 12.03V, -12V -12.19V, VBAT(V) 3.26V, 5Vsb(V) 5.14V.
    I have a Celeron 1,8 GHz, socket 478, a MSI 651 Combo MS6769 Motheboard, with nothing else. Hd Maxtor 30Gb, Rewriter MSI 52x24x52.
    The problem: From one day to another, it wasn´t load XP. It resets itself after a few seconds (about 5 secs). On the BIOS PC Health section, i actived the CPU Temperature beep on "too much degrees" (i don´t remember the exact name, but that´s the idea). And that´s how i realize that the temperature is the problem. I think it is how the motherboard inform the temperature, and it is a nominal temperature, not real. If it´s real, i already had a burnt processor.
    Anything else that can help to find a solution for me?
    Very thanks.

  • What can i do for the -3degree problem with motion sensor?

    Compare with my Iphone 5 ...There is a big problem and confuse me !
    What can i do to solve this problem?

    Apple, I'm sure, is working on it. If it's easy to fix with software, it will be out shortly with software update 7.0.3. Just sit tight.
    If it's a hardware problem, it's unlikely Apple will be able to fix it, and they're equally unlikely to take back millions of phones. My guess is we'll get a free case out of it -- just like with "Antenna Gate".
    My data:
    My iPhone 4 running iOS 7.0.2 agrees with reality (defined by both my bubble and digital contractor levels).
    My 32GB silver iPhone 5s is off by 3 degrees (level function) and about 7 degrees (compass function). I haven't run into any buildings with Tom Tom yet.

  • Problem with HP630i note book

    I have a problem with my notebook HP630i .the notebook is shutting down alone and when i start up  tell me that there is a problem with temperature(system temperature    90 D)?please help me

    Hello cobo1983.  I understand you're experiencing shut downs when trying to use the notebook.
    Had you noticed the notebook getting particularly warm before this error started showing up?  The error refers to the main cooling fan not functioning.  This normally means that the fan needs to be replaced.  However, I have a few things which may help resolve the issue.
    First, you should ensure that the cooling system and vents are clear of dust and debris.  This document covers the areas which need to be cleaned.  
    The next step will be to ensure that the latest BIOS is installed.  There are updates for several notebooks which made improvements to the way in which the cooling system and fans operated.  Also, I will want to provide you with parts information and replacement instructions if the previous steps do not work.  However, I tried looking this notebook up and can't locate the "630i."  I find many references to the HP 630 but nothing about an "i" version.  So, in order to provide you with these steps I would like you to provide me with your product number.  If you're unsure where this number is located you can take a look at this document.
    I will keep an eye out for your reply.  I hope you have an excellent day!
    Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"
    Click the "Accept as Solution" button if I resolve your issue.

  • I'm having problems with iphone 5 spacebar not responding at times, all my messages are no spaced even thougj i'm tapping spacebar. Having to hold it a bit longer to get a response. How do i fix this? I have already done a restore to factory settings.

    Can anyone help with is please, have already restored the phone but keyboard is still sticking. Its really annoying when sending messages!

    It must be a problem with the sensors under the screen.Have you ever dropped th phone down or in water?If so that is the cause.Restoring wont help you.You will have to take it to Apple and see what they say.
