nothing but good coolin n vmod :)
I've finally finished reading this thread and it has convinced me to buy an AGP 6200. I would like to buy one with 256 megs of memory, but I have a few questions that I couldn't figure out myself from reading this entire thread and the links in it.
1. Is the temperature readout mod included in the Sparkle Ultra .rom?
2. The VCORE and VMEM mods are two seperate hardmods, right? Can they be done to the 256 meg cards? Which cards can you do this to?
3. Are the 256 meg cards (assuming they are the 128bit versions) normally A2 versions, or are they more likely to be A4's.
4. Is the Sparkle Ultra .rom compatible with the 256 meg cards, also are there specific 256 meg cards that people have had success flashing and unlocking?
I'm really looking for anyone's suggestion on a 128-bit 256 meg AGP 6200 that are normally unlockable and flashable to the Sparkle Ultra rom, and hopefully the VCORE and VMEM mod. If the 256 meg version really doesn't make any difference, then I would appreciate any leads on a good 128 meg card with the same capabilities I've listed above. I really appreciate anyone's time spent on this, as I've got little money to work with, and I am desperate to get my computer working again.
I've found the following card below that is a 128 meg, and I read in this thread that people have had success unlocking it, but I wasn't sure if the Sparkle Ultra rom was succesfully flashed to it, or if it was capable of VCORE and VMEM mods. Here's the link:
Refurbished: Leadtek A6200 128 TD Geforce 6200 128MB 128-bit DDR AGP Stock: 300/550 Price: $87.50 + $1.00 S/H
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16814122216R
Thanks again!
Just found this 256 meg card, doesn't seem too terribly expensive:
eVGA 256-A8-N327-LX Video Card - Retail - 256MB 128-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...TT=Video+Cards
stay away from the 256MB card coz they only has a 5ns memory instead of 3.6ns w/ 128MB
just go for the refurbished Leadtek, it has very2 good oc capability :)
Mine did not like the volt mod ( even after Sparkle 6600 BIOS flash ) .. anything over 1.5v or so and it would start locking up.Quote:

Thanks for the advice. I was about to get the leadtek refurb, but I waited too long and now they are out of stock . :(
I've got another question about that eVGA 256 meg card. According to the specs, it has 4ns ram onboard (http://www.evga.com/products/pdf/256-A8-N327.pdf). Would it be fairly overclockable considering that? Now that the leadtek is gone I'm kind of out of options.
That is, unless this card is any good: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16814122206R
It isn't much price difference above the 256. I'd rather have the leadtek refurb so I can go through the fun of OCing, but hey...
what's ur card Andy?Quote:

haven't try to raising up above it..
guys what are the best 6200 AGP and PCI-E?
Leadtek AGP. Very strange, anything over 1.5-1.55v and it would either fail going into 3dmark or after changing frequency on rivatuner.Quote:

i did 468/779
But with artifacts :(
where does your GPU goes ? i could bench it ın 470... No vmod and stock cooling...
How about yours ?
It was about 600/730 with Sparkle 6600BIOS, crappy volt mod and chilled water cooling.Quote:

Just got done with an Air-cooled bench session. Ambient temp is 23.6.
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=972605
3077, my goal was 3k =)
This is with stock cooling on core and ramsinks on mem with a crappy TT case fan blowing direcly on the card.
CPU is in sig
I'm at a disadvantage only have 1x512 stick, but the value VX is donig 245 2-2-2-6 with reletively loose other timings.
Got a paycheck comming on thursday, should be getting either OCZ Gamer 3500 (just to see how it does since nobody has it, assuming my buddy can get it) or Redline. Will update when I get the new ram =)
edit: Heres the CPUZ valid i did just after the bench

Can I apply Sparkle 6600 Ultra bios to an Gigabyte 6200 NV43 GV-NX62128D 128 MB 300/500 ? (the same board like AlterBridge86)
http://www.gigabyte.com.hr/VGA/Produ...V-NX62128D.htm
At stock cooling I can get 550/670 and some 3,5k in 2005 and 8k in 2003 with an Pentim D 820 (2,8 GHz @ 3,6 GHz) with 80.40 drivers.
What drivers are best for overcloking ?
http://www.gigabyte.com.hr/VGA/FileL...62128d_big.jpg
It's the same card like in this pictures but mine is GV-NX62128D with 4ns not GV-NX62128DP
hey guys !!!!
Try The SPARKLE 6600 ULTRA bios....
it gives Fantastic o/c capasity.
Def bios ( leadtek 6200 ) 480/695
SPARKLE 6600 Ultra bios 580/760 :banana: :banana: :banana:
no vmod and Stock cooling :banana:
CLİCK HİRE FOR THE SPARKLE 6600 ULRTA BİOS
You could check the orb result on my Signature ;)
So 480/695 was the highest overclock that you could get on your default bios and you flashed anyways? Right now the highest I can get with my Asus drivers are 520/670, am I able to flash?
WHAT about LEADTEK 6600 PCIE and sparkle bios ?
Okay I flashed anyways and now I'm at 535/720!
I'm now hitting 8300 in 3DMark03 as opposed to 8000 at 525/670 before I flashed.
i should buy a GPU Water Blok :woot:
i am targetting 600mhz Core Clock whith the GPU block :stick:
580mhz stable with Stock cooling but it starts giving artifacts when i start 3dmark test. i thin its from the GPU heat...
but something make me confused :confused:
i heard that 6200 and 6600 couldn't be vmoded by the bios... i knowd that only 6600GTs could be Vmod by bios :confused:
Could some one help me chousing a gpu Blok ?
Should i open a thread ?
and where should i open ?
There's actually already lots of threads about 6200/6600 vmods here on the forums. I know VR-Zone had a whole write up about it.
are all these oc's done with the normal version of the card? i have a xfx 6200TC lying around but im not sure the turbo cache are gonna like overclocking.
yes i know that....Quote:

i didnt know that 6200 and 6600 could İncrise Vcore From the bios...
İs it true ?
Could 6200 and 6600 Non GT İncrise Vcore from the bios ?
And how much Vcore could i give from the bios ? max 1.4v ? Or more ?
I would also like to know how can I do this. I supose that SPARKLE 6600 ULTRA bios has this higher voltage to the memory and the GPU.Quote:

Edit:
Got this file but don't know how to use it right now. Maybe someone can help me to increase the VGPU just with an bios edit.
well i heard that this is AGP bios...
Which is not copabilty whit yorus.. but i am not sure...
You can flash whith NvFlash...
Copy NvFlash + Defaultbios + Sparkle 6600 Ultra bios to a startup disk..
Restart and boot from Floppy..
Write this
NvFlash -i0 -4 -5 -6 SPARKL~1.ROM
İ am not resbonsble about any problem !!!
I've just edited the message above. Can u edit my bios to get higher voltages,Throttling or temp monitoring ?
