I'll try that bios, got a link for it? As for fsb, I've tried taking out the 512mb stick, but does not help in stability, I keep crashing on 244+ fsbs, and I cannot get 2 volts to be stable either, using 1.95v to run benchies works fine. The ram can go above 250 fsb.
I'll try going for 23k tomorrow, I've hit 22903 but can't publish it, maybe I can get it to publish tomorrow.

srry if this has been answered b4, but does this work best with cards with sammy 2.8ns ram? thats what I have and I was wondering whether I should give it a try, or just stick with the original. :rolleyes:

Try that! :thumbsup:

The flash works just fine, I may edit it to 450/350 stock would be nice :)
I haven't been able to bench due to the high temps in Vancouver right now, its scorching hot, I don't think I can get very high fsbs.
My goal is to get 250x11 to work, that will give me a nice score.

I have the best aircooled score!
23396 :banana:
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7916464

Pov FX5900XT @ 650/930
XPM2600+ @ 12x235=2820
NF7-S

So this means I get the "Aircooled XP" and the "Ownage" award ? :D

Nice score guys.

Nice score, I'll have a good old smash at it once I've got my 9800 Pro vmodded and this on it...

Great score, but whats with the crazy high nature score in comparison to everything else? I dont own nvidia card so is that normal??

Yeah, that's "normal" because I used the 44.03 drivers and they have some optmisations for the nature test. I use these drivers because everyone else on the ORB with high nvidia 3dmark2001 scores use them.

Wow, *normal* sounds very very fishy, maybe ati owners should run the benchmark in 16 bit mode

;)

The gap between nature test and the rest is just stupendous

i'd say 2.8+ghz on air is more unusual than the nature scores

Nah, 2.8Ghz on air is possible with a good chip and excellent aircooling. I did it too.

The nature score and the carchase low scores are both high though, but I'm not crying foul, because it is a different vid card at the end of the day.

Nature is high compared to ATi cards, not compared to other nv cards. For example: Here's one with a PC cooled P4EE and also the 44.03 drivers
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7805722
That's almost 200 fps on nature.

2.8Ghz is not that high for the new mobiles, even on air. I had a delta and a tornado blowing over my sp97 to keep it cool.

What should make you wonder the most however, is the high core clock on the FX5900XT. It comes with a stock clock of 390Mhz and I managed to squeeze 650 out of it. A voltmod and a SLK900 cooler + tornado were needed though ;)

Hey Gaz nice to see you arnd, by no means am i crying foul play either, well not on HaLDoLs' part *cough* nvidia *cough*;)

HaLDoL, you must have a fine card their, im awaiting RMA on my 2nd 9800 card, it luck of the draw if u get a beaut of a crad or not, something im sure you are aware of. My first 9800 was very nice, hoping to have better luck on my next one.

hey guys, well I finally tried the gigacube bios, and at the end of the whole flash, the last thing it said was something like "68543 bytes of 68543 bytes completed". (im not 100% sure thats what it said)

I didnt get any error messages or anything. so my question is, how do I know if the flash was successful and my card has the gigacube bios?

if you go to adapter or option tab on the display property, it will tell you the BIOS ID. If you don't remember what your BIOS ID was and see one now, you wouldn't be able to tell which is which. :D

another way, check the default clock speeds shown in the rad clocker/linker in the display property. The clocks should be at 390/350 IIRC. That means the Gigacuby has taken effect.

sweet, its actually at 398/350. I guess thats just the default for the bios. thnx

New CPU new score!!

XP-M 2400+ @ 13.x220
NF7-S v2.0
GeXcube 9800Pro Extreme @ 502/411

23064
Edit: Vapochill PE for CPU!!

:thumbsup: 23k is quite good!

By the way... I've read dozens of threads about flashing 9800pro cards... I have a Sapphire 9800pro with 2.8ns Hynix memory... what bios is the best? I've read about the Gigacube bios but that's for Samsung memory... or does it work on Hynix too?

Well, I finally hit 22k, but I can't publish :mad: . One more reason to try going higher though :D

See my thread for more info if you want.
