do you guys know how to force ati powerplay to work on this card?
Nice mod Risky,
How do you locate the VGPU control chip?
Ati powerplay works great if it dosent work on yours it is the driver there is something wrong with
Riska, thanks for the reponse. i've tried the past 3 driver versions (9.4,9.5,9.6). mine's a ddr4 version, could that be the culprit?
one way to confirm that ATI powerplay works is to see if the gpu clock goes down @ idle right?
Yes all of mine hd4670 clocks down to 165/250mhz
there's something wrong with mine then :( probably have to do with the card manufacturer's bios..i might try to use the saphire gddr4 bios
thanks
I would give it a try ;)Quote:

my card is a reference ati hd4670 ddr4..but it came in a box marked triplex hd4800 series lol. the card itself has no brand markings, just ati and stuff.
the sapphire gddr4 hynix chips look like this:

i dont have pics of mine but the markings of the hynix chips are like this
HY5FS123235A
FCP-09 751A
as opposed to the sapphire models that have this:
HY5FS123235A
FCP-08 816A
are those the same chips? also, any important tips before i do the bios flash?
thanks :)
sapphire's ddr4 bios didn't work, no display :( guess i'm stuck to RBEing my card's original bios
Does anyone know if this works with Gigabyte 4670 too?
If it is ddr3 it is the same mods
I've got a question about this mod.I believe that the right modd helps Vcore.The left is for Vmem?If not ,can a single mod (either the left or the right)can work without the other.Quote:

And both are for Vcore right?Or right modd for Vcore and the left is for Vmem?
Left are vmemmod and right are vgpumod
Thanx m8 :D
I have the 1GB card and the vgpu area is slightly different. which solder pad is ground in this mod and which is the mod point? My card only has one of the two showing, im hoping its the mod point.Quote:

I also moved some caps etc to the back of the card, so I could mount my pot.
I've mods done for ASUS EAH4670/DI/512MD3 <- there's to versions of 512mb cards from asus, this one is with spiral cooler.
I'll upload pics when i get back home :)
any help on this for HIS ICEQ model lol

If my eyes aren't made from wood it that chips model is uP6201, looks like 7 but that one uses different package.Quote:

Here's some pic. if these are correct 100K Vr between FB and GND ^^

can I measure from that resistor to ground or does it have to be from FB to ground. Not sure I can get my lead to single the leg out.
fb to ground im getting 17.33 m ohm
