Which drivers support dual cores?
And what gains can i expect to see? I just got my hands on a opty 165 :D
Hey K.I.T.T.
also have Opty 165
Guess you'll have to use Catalyst 5.13...
I only installed drivers...not ATI Control Center
However, BF2 won't start will Dual-Core (was running nice with Venice on same install...go figure)
i also get weird drive access and shortcuts..as well as brutal shudown...
Issue...i don't know....i'm new to dual-core...that i must improve
here is catalyst 5.13 details : (PM if you need translation ;)
* Accélération matérielle H.264 sur les Radeon X1300/1600/1800,
* Support ATI CrossFire pour les Radeon X1800,
* Support du benchmark vidéo HQV grâce Ã:banana: des ajouts au niveau du décodage des DVD,
* Problèmes de lenteur de FEAR en CrossFire corrigés,
* Correction d'un problème du PowerPlay avec les portables ATI Radeon Xpress 200,
* Correction des problèmes de redimensionnement de l'affichage écran avec le Control Center,
* L'aperçu vidéo retourne Ã:banana: ses valeurs par défaut lors du changement d'affichage,
* Correction des problèmes de corruption apparaissant sur l'affichage principal en étendant l'affichage sur des moniteurs CRT, TV et DFP.
* Correction d'un problème de corruption des couleurs avec certains réglages du CATALYST OverDrive
Anyway....encoded a whole 2h15 movie from DVD in 1h20 min....Wow
In ati tool it says my sapphire radeon is R430 core but has 16pipelines, what does that mean?
Also it doesn't see it as a gto2 it shows it as a x800xl series. I'm on omega 2.6.87
I now have a C3D X800 GTO. Lucky for me newegg had some referb ones for $150 and this one had a date of 11/12/05 and it flashed to 16 pipes. Runs stable with stock cooler at Core 550 mem 530.
Don't worry , nothing special here , just that the new gto² dual dvi have a new bios showing R430 with 16 pipeline allready activated., then you don't need to flash it anymore , just o/c the beast and play with.Quote:

GTO2 non Vivo here... flashed to 16pipes with X850XT bios..
max Clocks: 525 /620.. bad core good Ram.
I expected Pe speeds which i cant reach with this crappy core.. measured the VGPU -> gives 1,4 Volts if the card is idle at windows.. if i run atitool giving the card some load, the VGPU droppes to 1,37Volts..
Done VMod 4 GPU with 20k Poti to idle 1,43Volts --> then i can measure 1,40Volts under load.. now the core does 535 stable..
setting Pot to 1,5Volts idle leads to stable 563 Mhz Core.
resumed:
If you get a bad core, try to rise the Vcore just 0,03 Volts to get another 15 Mhz..still weak but hey i expected XTPE speeds and now i have em..
But all this lucky guys here with GPUcores that do 590 Mhz without a mod, i hate them. Really!
BTW. This was the second card, the first maxed out @535/590.. looks like we germans get only the inferior goods..
greets

I like the Gto2:slobber:
Hmm.. interesting, better clock with better cooling?!
I found that temps arent the issue.. regardless of core temps it stops working. i have 58° on air with silencer under load..if i set 545 Mhz it crashes @ 37° in a friction of a second.. volts matter, temperatures not if i keep it < 65° imho.
There is no artefacting, they stopping to respond -- black screen -- reboot..
tested two cards, both showed same behavior..hmm.. this days we have
-13° outside, should i place the case outside the window just to see if it matters.. :confused:
frequency in signature no mod gpu or mem,
marks and another tests are all right, but when I try play quake 4 with 540/590 system freeze, I will must go down :(
I really thinking avout pencil mod :slap:
I got mine(x800 gto2-flashed) running 600/600 for 24/7 use and can hit 7030 on 3dmark2005(7280 with xs memory timings) but my 2001se score seem really low...i cant get over 30000 with my system...i have a opty 144 at 2.8ghz, 2 gigs memory running 201mhz 2-3-2-5...any ideas ive seen people hitting well over 30000 with the same specs. One more thing...when your computer recognizes your video card what does it show it as? mine says RADEON x800/x850 series...is that right? isnt it supposed to be just RADEON x850?
Another Sapphire board with a R430 here. ATITool got it up to 535/620 out of the box though. Can't possibly be R430.
It's dual DVI if that matters.
I'm running my saphiter x800 gto2 in 571/610. I get 6958 in 3dmark 05
With opteron 2,7ghz, 2gbmemory in 238mhz.
trying to push it a bit more to reach the 7000 mark.
http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/...pphire-14.html
They have my Dual DVI GTO2 in that review and the insanely high res photo of the board shows R480 and 1.6ns RAM (!!). Crazyness. No wonder ATITool was up to 620+ Mhz on RAM before I stopped it.
Here are my 24/7 settings for my x800gto^2.

Gpu is aircooled.
hello , i ve a gto² double dvi
cold air 1.4 stock cooling bench 2001 @ 615/610
ut under cascade , i ve a lot of problems :/
when i run on 2001 , when finished , if i want to re-run :p , i must wait fiew minutes , or i have errors when launching the bench , etc
does someone have gto² under phase chage ? (cascade)
i gonna try under dod
skirms- voltmod?
Hi, would it be better to get a gto² or a normal x850 xt? which one would clock better?
vgpu + vdd + vddq modQuote:

very nice Pt1t
i need a new card blow my up , mach2 almost ready .
how much vgpu en vdd du u gife it ?
Here a GTO i modded for a friend, cooled with Stockcooler, untweaked timings and 1,59V. Just quicktests. :)

7725 in 3DM05 with vGPU mod. vDD and vDDQ mod to be done soon. At 669/618 MHz with CPU and GPU under water (vGPU @ 1.69v). Aiming for 8k :)
Nice scores, im debating digging out my gpu water block as the zalman dosent seem to be cutting it anymore, with 1.48v on gpu 600mhz it gets to around 70c, loaded for 15 minutes, and thats with 2 120mm fans blowing over the card one on full whack the other 7v.Quote:

What temps is everyone else getting with what volts and cooling?
Hmmm....thats a bit dodgy Pancake. With the stock cooler at full blast at 1.46v, I've never seen it go above 62*C....
I gave the card a clean out when i took it out to do the vddq mod, so its dust free, maybe ill try remounting it, i dont know if i can botherd messing around plumbing in a gpu block.
MI new connect3d x800gto didnt mod, has laser cut :(
solved the temp probs by the looks of it, i forgot when i had the side of my case off for about a month i turned all the fans blowing in so no hot air was getting out, back to under 60c load now
I installed new graphics wc block but for some reason at 615mhz core speed (testing with ati tool) my screen gets black.
Any suggestions?
yes, this is the limit of OC :stick:Quote:

Its no as high a overclock as the GTO2s out there but I just installed a ATI Silencer5 rev2 on my Connect 3D GTO that is flash to all 16 piples. It has a R423 and samsung -2.0 GDDR3 now at 570core and 545 mem with out volt mods. Its the best video card I have paid under $150 for.:)
Got this from Newegg referb line and I think there is one still there for $120 now.
EDIT
The Connect 3D GTO for $120 is gone now but there are 2 GTO2 referb for $170 and $173.
Nice price for C3D x800gto.
I install today Akasa 862 cooler on my x800GTO Fireblade@x850xtpe.
With stock cooler 610Mhz@75C, now 650Mhz@58C all@1.55Vgpu.
I will install ramsinks tomorrow, and bench with cool air.
know somebody a Vmod for a connect3d x800gto? because the pcb is diferent to the reference
pictures front and back with no heatsink would helpQuote:

Hmmm...Your nature score is very high compared to mine:
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8888479
Did you use LOD or something?
best i have got out of my sapphire gto @16p 1.7v is 756/648 8869 in 05 on a fx-57not to shabby nice cards for the price
Hmm, i modded a Connect3D X800GTO, and the relvant parts are the same i think, just the volatge-reading points are different to the GTO2/X850 layout.Quote:

Are ur card different to this one?
If u need the reading points, i must wait until the owner of this card is online, i made a picture for him, with the points, but i don't have it anymore. :)
no didnt use lod, just set to performance in ati control panelQuote:

Doe's anyone have MSI x800gto?
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/produc...il.php?UID=712
It has the similar PCB to x850xt, and cheap price there, but someone unlocked this card?
lol nice scores for a card that costs 2x cheaper and overclocked can reach 7800gtx (more or less default) scores .
:toast:
well i finallyy had enough with the air cooling on the gto2 soi dug out my water block, bumped vgpu to 1.58 (droops to 1.56 load) and got up to 653 in ati tool before it froze my pc, did a quick 05 at 640/640 and got 75xx and about 500 extra in 01 , forgot to disable lan and bluetooth though so may of got another 1-200 pts.
temps are about 50c loaded now with the waterblock, thats with my 146 opty in the same loop which also reaches 50 fully loaded now, ran spi 4mb and ati tool on scan to get a good hammering for both and they both sat at 50c lol, think im gonna have to either upgrade to a tripple rad or use a seperate loop for gpu.
What max vgpu should i use going by current temps??
will i get much better temps with a tripple rad?
What is the rest of ur watercooling system? :)Quote:

crappy asetek res with 1/2" barbs
Hmm...
My watercooling setup is
Swiftech MCR220 QP 120.2 radiator with 2 x Noiseblocker fans @ 1200 RPM
Laing D5 pump at #3 setting
AquaXtreme MP-05 Pro Limited Edition CPU block
DangerDen D5 GPU block
And i get load temps of 42 on CPU and 45 on my GPU (vGPU @ 1.6v). i'd recommend upgrading the pump and CPU waterblock maybe?
I think a goos triple radi external will give u much better temps, dunno if ur radi is already outside of ur case?Quote:

My temps are about 25°C idle and 36°C load, with 1,68V Vgpu.
The Rad is outside the case, but is sucking air from inside the case. I think if i reverse the fans, i may get better temps. I get idle temps of 28*C on the GPU. As far as the CPU goes, i get idle temps of 34*C :rolleyes: Bad IHS contact for sure....Quote:

My radiator is inside the case with fans sucking air into the case.
Whats a good double or tripple rad to get, want one thats not going to be restrictive like my current rad, and preferably not a heatercore
I do not know what stuff is really good in the us, maybe u start a topic in the watercooling section. :)
Or are u not from the us?

no im from the u.k, looking at the thermochill pa160, looks like a bit of a beast considering the size, a tripple is only slightly more expensive but twice as big and then some, and temps arent much diffrence.Quote:

Well, this thread has gotten kind of long. I remember contributing to it in the 18-30 page region.
However, I tend to have a strange problem. The card freezes. Very very rarely in games, mostly in source, a few times in other games.
The screen turns black, sometimes freeze+artifacts.
Is it core or mem?
I think that this is much Core,Quote:

I would vote for the core too. :)

Well, this is what my screen looked like once.
I was playing a game, and it froze and went black, so I alt+trl+del -ed
And the funny thing is that my PC was still working fine. The sounds were there, and I could blindly run programs.
I shut-down, and I could see that blu bar moving, (the win2k loading bar) as it was shtting down.
When I restarted, The red msg poppup up that the power cable was disconnected. But it wasn't. So I reconnected it.
And recently, It happend again. The screen went black, and floze and the last 1/3 of the second of sound looped.
i was not overcloked either of those times.
@ kohan....i'd RMA it it i were you.... check that the ram timings are correct first though :)
This is the highest i can get mine: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1881843
She hasnt got any more to give :(
kitt- u have the sapphire, i have the connect3D gto.
this happens quite rarely, and never in some games.
if i rma it, i would get the newer version, in which the pipes are locked
maybe try reflashing the bios? try different drivers and check if the HS is seated correctly :)
Maybe? Which one would you recommend?Quote:
Originally Posted by K.I.T.T.

the temps are idle 30c, it seated perfectly (MaxxxRacer installed it :D )
I have a GTO2 unlocked to 16 pipes coming. Will give it a shot :)
:confused:Quote:

Mad Moxx X800 GTO² Burstfire
I just did a testrun, again
400/490 (stock speeds) -5138
590/590 - 6895
So!! I need to break that 7000mark barrier w/oout voltmods.
What's the best bios for the Connect3D x800 GTO ??
I'm running on the connect3d modified 16pipe bios
did anyone get the advantage while running with an xt/xl bios?
I'm selling my modded GTO2 that was mentioned oh..35 pages or so ago on this thread. ;) One of the first to break 8k in 3dm05. See sale section if interested.
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/639...ttbench4bw.jpg
OH yeah, check out that x800 nonpro lastercut at 12 pipes. Doesnt it make you all hot and wet inside. oh yeah.
not at all :P (even I had a bad card, artefacts (usually, except during 24cm fan-cooled :) ) starting @560 GPU :( )Quote:
