Hope someone can help me out here....
With only vdd mod I could do 635 mem. Then I read som about the vddq mod, so tried it out.
After the vddq mod I can do 630 stable but it artifacts more above that than before the vddq mod.
Did both mods with 20k vr's at the moment set at max both of them which gives me
vdd 2.19v
vddq 2.19v
before vddq
EDIT: vdd 2.11v
vddq 2.11v
Rivertuner says amb temp. 17dg. and the mems are "cold" when toughing them.
Please help and thanks in advance.

Maybe at its max without extreme cooling. 635 with normal cooling is quite good and probably near its max, especially if its completely clean.

635Mhz is with prommy@r404a so dont know if its good. Am just seeing so many doing 650-690Mhz.....know that the 660-690 is cascade, but should 650Mhz not be unrealistic for rommy@r404a?
Anyone know how much vddq need when for instance vdd = 2.00 / vddq = 2.05 etc. or something like that?
EDIT: anyone with TEC, prommy or cascades who could post their temp. for the card measured with rivatuner? (dont need to be precise hehe :) )

Well I did the Vddq mod last night and went from 630 MHz (Vdd mod only) to 651 MHz benchable in 03. Thats at Vdd=2.20, Vddq=2.25. Going higher didnt help any.
The GPU is cooled with a MCW50-T@12V and it was running about 11 deg C when I did those tests. The mem chips were just warm ... guessing @ 35 - 40 deg C using my calibrated finger thermometer :p:
Try raising the Vddq by 0.05V.

Raising vddq to for instance 2.25v and vddq follows it....What to do? Almost everyone else is doing the mod with a 20k vr. Think it would help doing the vdd with a 50k?
EDIT: changed vdd mod with a 50k vr but same result?
EDIT2: removed vdd so there is only vddq mod...now this i getting wired I think- same voltage at vdd and vddq as with the vdd mod added.
No mods and my mems get 2.11v and vddq 2.11v

Does this mean that the vdd mod is not required as the vddq mod over-rides the vdd?

For comparison my stock Sapphire x800xt-pe goes to 615 mhz with slight artifacting
VDD=2.009v
VDDQ=2.103v
Ambient= 25c
Modded GPU is at 1.68v

Can you go higher if you do the vddq mod?
Can anyone explane what that does?
Thanks
Edit: vdd is 2.02v and vddq is 2.11v, both stock.
Think Im gona do both vdd and vddq mods, its already with vgpu
