Tedy are they good for a non tweaked system?
I know that they look bad no overclocking, slow mem timings etc. etc. but I have already lost a Pc due to a lightning surge that passed through the LAN Port, straight to the mainboard/CPU/Powersupply and mem. So I don't want to re loose this one with overclocking.

Uh huh.... :confused: So it wouldnt work at 470/540 so u backed down to 550/530 ??? lol no wonder its not working :DQuote:
Today I tried 3dm01 at 470/540 which was completely stable a few weeks ago (24h of 03 in loop). It was a no go. I had to back down to 550/530 for 3dmark to complete.

I think he meant to say 450/530. ;)Quote:

470 core without any mods is pretty good compared to many others .. hope I can figure it out. Should do 500 with 1.5-1.55v or so..
It seems that some cards have a slightly higher stock vgpu than others :confused: i am running 460/550 artifact free in ATItool without any mods, i have been to 470/570 and cannot see any artifacts in 3dmark though, maybe ATItool is just too good at stressing :stick:
Cant wait to volt mod it this week and hopefully make 500mhz on the core
just got my POWERCOLOR X800XL PCIE
2.0ns :(
will bench a little....
erm what tempetaures are still safe for X800XL ?
So far GPU max is 440 Mhz......
Few questions :
- Which cooler is better ZALMAN VF700CU or ATI SILENCER 5 REV2 ?
- Where do i see voltage for GPU/RAM as Nibitor had for NVIDIA ?
Thanks

Tedy don't feel bad about 2.0ns ram. Most people are getting cards like that including my powercolor. Out of the box with no volt/cooling mods my memory does 567 rock stable. I hope with better cooling a bit higher. Your core is doing better than mine though. I can't seem to go higher than 425-432.
My mem kind a sucks, doing max 540 :( 2,0ns... The core on the other hand is doing 480 on water, kind a strange, but nice :) Gonna find me a pencil and draw something on it :D
mine also only does 550 fully stable but with mods, good airflow etc.. i could also bench with 600 :D
how much did you guys get in increase with increased voltage?
3dmark 2003
11214
280*9
x800xl 400/490
A have a powercolor x800xl with a zalman vf700cu on it and my core does 456 and my memory only 521 :( :( :(
overclocking has been don with atitools if i go any higher i get artifacts in atitools scanner.
can i get higher (safe) with rivatuner
o the temp are oke i guess 54 on core full load and 30 idle
In my experience with my 9800 Pro, ATiTool sucks for detecting artifacts that you'll notice in games. I ran games 20MHz above what ATiTool told me was stable and never saw a single artifact.
ATItool detects artifacts at 550 on the mem on my XL. I play games at 440/590 with no artifacts and bench at 610+ easy.
just becasue you don't see artifact does not mean they aren't there. leave it at ati's values, and your cards should last as long as it was originally intended. go over, and possibly lessen it's life. That's if you care about that.
This aint called XtremeSystems for no reason, with better cooling its possible to run the cards much higher without risking its life...Quote:

I meant to say ATI-tool, and not ATI's values. Overclocking, and not raising voltages, should not damage a card. it either works, or it doesn't
Why i mentioned that was becasue most gaming/testing evironments are 3d...so there is always a side to an image that you don't see. the artifacts could be happening before the z-culling, and you wouldn't really see them.
Yep, mine does 460mhz core on 1.45v. I can run 480@1.5v, but temps hit 60C and I start to get artifacting.Quote:

I'm using a jetart JASCH1, which can't quite cut it when it comes to extra volts. Does great on stock vgpu, though. My Maze4 will be here Friday, though so no worries. 1.6-1.65v coming soon!!!!
In Denmark we've just got a shop that sells a wc set the mem for a 100$, gonna get that one and give my mem some juice.. If it doesn't give any ekstra its at least kind a fancy with some dye :D
