Poll: ATI cards clock speeds
Hello
It seems ATI cards are limited in speed with ClOD. (eg 500MHz on a 4890 usually running 870MHz) Also ATI users do not see much of an improvement in the BETA patch. This poll to see if this is always the case or not. In order to answer , you can measure core GPU speed using GPU-Z (using export to text file function, or graphs) NB: when clock speed is limited , it can be overcome by several methods. I did so using ATI tray tools, "overclocking" my card to the 870MHz speed. And game is playable again

I did have the issue that the speeds didn't ramp up for CoD.
It turned out that it was Flash player prohibiting the card. I turned off "enable hardware acceleration", and all is good. That improved my performance of course. |

increasing to stock value with no tweak
With a 6870 and Catalyst 11.3. |

My HD58xx is running at full clock speeds with no tweaks.
I'm using ATI tray tools. |

What are you doing with ATI tray tools if you've made no tweaks?

My 6950 idles at 450MHz, blasts up to the full 800MHz when first loading the game, then crashes back to 500MHz once the menu loads and that's where it stays forever after.
As an aside, the beta patch gave me a very significant boost in fps with a moderate reduction in stutters. Then the actual live patch apparently reversed everything from the beta patch and sent my fps to new depths, with worse stuttering than I have ever encountered. It used to be semi-playable over water. It's now completely unplayable anywhere. |

Then I use the 6870 with Catalyst 11.3, does not exceed 300 MHz, without using ATT (When you start the game, makes an attempt to get to 900 MHz, but upon entering the main menu down again to 300)
Forcing with ATT, the game is more or less smooth, with light stutter |
