Just picked up my m17x r2 need help

How and where do I go to make sure I'm running the right the right BIO's and the best drivers for my 5870 crossfirex ? Lozz, 650, or Reborn this thing is sweet! Now I need to optimize the thing,

 

Just download GPU-Z it should have all the info there

 

Did that but, do not know what it all means. Plus it is showing only one card. Do I open it twice and just select the other to look at both at the same time.

 

You can have both open at once if you want to go that route. The drop-down menu at the bottom left lets you select what card you're viewing.

 

Hey there chiefs,

Just saw your post.

Post up a pic of your GPU-z and we'll take a look for you.

I'd guess that you are most likely running old dell stock drivers and the old vbios still though; damm lazy dell LOL ehahahahaah.

Check for the driver version and vbios version in GPU-z 4.7.
What does it say and show in those 2 sections, the numbers?

Cheers.

 

Here you go chiefs,

You can compare your GPU-z pic with mine.

Check in the vbios version section. I would assume yours saids 012.019........
If so that is the original old vbios.

Then post up which particular driver version you have as well.
For the driver version you want to be looking for the numbers 8.763 or higher. If it is lower than you will need to update your GPU drivers before updating the vbios.


Before you update the vbios update to system bios version A09 then the dell driver and then the vbios.

Cheers.
