I've got the PowerColor X800GT, so what BIOS am i to use?
The card is clocking SUPER!! I'm at 613 MHz VPU(no artifacts in ATI tool) and 554 MHz mem (also stabil in ati tool).
Both clocks aplied at the same time and tested for 34mins with the artifact-scanner!
then first you have to hard-mod, and than flash it to obtain full x800xl card!

Hello everybody.
A week or so ago I bought a Sapphire x800gt 256MB (423). And now it has 12 pipes working (laser cut mod) with core/mem at 540/567 rock solid on stock cooling. Will try Sapphire's x800xl bios as soon as i can get win98 boot cd img, cause my floppy drive broke a year or so ago :(

Ok, ive tried sapphire's x800xl bios in vain - still 12 pipes and some wierd sounds from video card. Oh and atitool won't recognize that new bios:
2005-09-14 23:51:21 ATITool v0.24 started.
2005-09-14 23:51:21 Detected GPU Chip: R423 (554B), 12 Pipelines, 256 MB
2005-09-14 23:51:21 Temperature monitoring: LM63 detected
2005-09-14 23:51:21 Could not locate ATI BIOS - assuming 27.000 Mhz Ref. clock
what should that mean?
Anyone can haelp me with this, plz? Anyone with more experience than me (who is probably anyone)?
stigush, would it be possible to get that exact x800xl bios You used to unlock 16?

I did flash the bios, but no results from that, atiflash shows message that P/n is new, then i reboot to windows and atitools wont recognize bios, while system thinks its the same x800gt. Oh, and ASIC won't change, it's the same 423. Should ASIC change?
Any results? :rolleyes:Quote:

Afaik the X800XL PCI-e uses a R430 too, I thried flashing several X800XL/XT bioses but none of the is able to unlock 4 extra pipes.
I tried looking on google for cards with the same core that have 16p open, but the weird thing is i've looked at dozens of pics of cores en the pics I found of the R430 core do have the same flip-chip and resisstors and stuf but mij core is slightly different. As seen on the attached picture you see the PCI-e logo in the lower right corner of the core, but mine says
instead ofCode:PCI>> express
just a slight difference in the logo, but stil....Code:PCI>>
express
Also there are no laser cuts on the flip-chip as seen on the picture.
Does anyone now how to unlock the 4 extra pipes ?
anyone ?
i think there isn't any (yet)
Hmm i will try hardmodding my powercolor soon. So far it has yielded some quite nice results.

I just scored 33k, no mods at all to the card 655,578 its a sapphire blue pcb, 8 pipes just good ol fashioned ocing it is a 423 core. I can run nature as high as 665, man do these things oc like mad.
