187(V)URD@

Can everyone include a post with wich drivers they benched (eg: 5.10 ccc or cp)
And post a link or attach the bios they used.

Edit:

Some questions about Ati benching:

-Do you guys set all aplication controlled or is there a way to set everything disbabled? I know some ati drivers could.
-CCC or CP?
-what about catalyst future ai with benching and gaming?

Btw; i think i flashed wrong bios, mine says x850pro :o

thx

There is a Sapphire X800GTO AGP out there now. Does any body know what core its using R423 or R480 and if its modable to 16 pipes.

BTW, when ATITool shuts down your system, what happens exactly? Testing for max core, at 600 exactly my screen goes black and the system becomes unresponsive. Weird thing is, if I set the core to 615 or slightly higher manually, my rig will complete 3DM05 without issue.

Unfortunately my GTOÂ² like most of available in France sux at stock cooling, most of it ran at ~520MHz for the core, RAM perform well as usual

I am getting some strange results with my Vmodded gto2...

Before the mod, I had 600/600 %100 stable based on looping 3dmark, playing FEAR for 6 hours, etc. This is on watercooling. Load temps were 40ish.

Did the Vgpu mod with a VR and set it at 1.60 to start. 650 on the core was a cakewalk. Things seem stable in most apps, but it crashes 3dmark03 randomly in the proxycon test. Just locks up... I dont think OVP is kicking in, but cant figure out what the problem is. Increasing voltage does not help. Temps are under 50 at load, up to 1.75vgpu.

At first, after the mod, the power regulation circuits got real hot, real fast. After putting a fan on it, they never get hotter than the core.

Now I know 3dmark03 is a bit more picky than other apps for max OC, but I am stumped here. Any ideas? I would be satisfied with 650/600 24/7 clocks (core probably has more if I wanted to run >1.65vgpu day to day), but I cant get 3dmark03 stable....

I'll confirm for the ovp mod tonight...

Nice clock LexDiamonds :) I want to see +600 memory clock :p: (vdd & vddq are easier than vgpu)
10-25-2005, 03:46 PM
LexDiamonds

Well, 600 on the mem is really about my max. For me, its not worth tweaking mem settings in ati tool for a few more mhz. I was happy with 600. ATI tool would actually cry foul on the memory around 612, but I set it to 600 for day to day stability.

I have always read that vmodding the mem isnt worth it. It can blow up easyily and gains just arent going to be that huge.

I am redownloading 3dmark03- I think I had an old build from when it was first released. I am hoping that will fix my problem. ATI Tool happily ran for an hour @ 650/600 so I am fairly confidant that my OC is not the problem.

Also- regarding the overvolt protection, there seems to be a lot of variance as to when this actually kicks in. Seems to be between 1.75 and 1.9 for most people. At 1.6ish I am nowhere near there.. so again I am thinking that is not the problem. Not to mention that 05 runs just fine (cant loop it to test however).

At 1.75Vgpu, the power regulators get HOT. Word of warning to anyone juicing there card to these levels- be sure you have good cooling on the front top and bottom half of the card (towards the DVI/VGA connectors).

Hi beta-

I originally had 3 gto2s on order, one from atacom. I had ordered about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I got the email of doom that said they werent expecting anymore to come in, so I canceled too. I talked to the lady a bit and she was up on the situation saying that x850 sales were getting canabalised and that lots of people had urged sapphire to end production of the gto2.

There are NO cheap deals on the GTO2 anymore. Newegg has them and you would have it in 3 days with no fuss, but they want $275 shipped. Seeing as you can get a 7800GT for $60-70 more, its not that great a deal. Hell, I paid $225 shipped and I am thinking the 7800GT may have been a better choice.

Anyhow- good luck to you in finding one. There very well could be a second supply of these coming down the pipes, but I somehow doubt it.
10-25-2005, 06:15 PM

Well, I seem to have sorted out my issues...

I was hellbent at keeping my mem at 600 because its such a nice number, but I had to drop it down to 590 to keep scaling the core. I should have known this from my 9800pro days, but I was stobborn. :slapass:

On the plus side, I think my core has a good chance of scaling to 680-700 mhz, so the net trade off is a good one.

I don't know if I get better scores but this bios clock higher ;) (cetainly better timings). It's 100% stable @ 600/615 (VGPU @ 1.46v loaded, VDD @ 2.2v, VDDQ @ 2.16v). Bench @ 620/630. Stock cooling with AS5 core/cÃ©ramique memory...max temp = 62 after a few hours loop nature.
I'm buying ViperJohns extreme aircooling and should crank the volt @ 1.63-1.64v loaded :D

edit : ATItool artifacts free (haven't took a SS but...overnight @ 600/615)

u used a 20k VR? What resistance did you set it to? I thought insted of using a VR, ill try and use a 2B pencil :p but it didnt work :stick: - i just took it out of my rig to try lol.

The initial resistance between the solder pads is 436 ohms according to my multimeter....what resistance do you get (between the pads AND between the legs of the VR) at your current settings?

PS.. whats the difference between VDD and VDDQ? :am:

Be happy!! 545/540 is basically all I can get here. I have ramsinks, applied Arctic Silver Ceramique, everything!

I even have a 92MM fan on the back of the card (on it) blowing on the ramsinks.

probably changed PCIE slot from the bottom to the top to get 16X bandwidth on the bus instead of 8x.

good luck finding a new one...

Then I hold the best and sell the other. But 7K is pretty good for a 200â‚¬ card.

Right, i was using the bottom x16 slot for convenience. DFI was configured x8 x8 like in SLI mode, i went back to x16 x2

So x8 is defnitely not enough passed 7000 3Dmark05 points, my X800 XL that reached 6660 doesn't got this problem

According to techpowerup 1.45V max on aircooling, may be 1.55V with a Zalman

My first post here, but it ain't a pretty one.

Got a Sapphire x800gtoÂ² Lite.
Flashed it first with the bios on techpowerup.com.
Rebooted & opened atitool =>
http://users.multimedi.be/pieterreynders/12pipes.gif
That's right, no 16 pipes!!!!

Even flashed it with other x850xt (pe)'s biossen and still says 12 pipes.
Other tools like Everest also find and "x850pro" :(

So i guess it ain't a 100% guaranteed unlocking... :(

Weird. According to the codes under CONFIG_DIE_FUSES and CONFIG_SUBSTRATE_FUSES you should be able to mod it. What'd you use to flash?

Mods

Are the mods the same as the X850 series? It looks like it from earlier posts.

Just want to confirm.

Yeah idd, that's why i included in the screenshot.

I flashed with atiflash: atiflash -f -p 0 newbios.bin (had to force it, coz first it gave me some mismatched error with the bios on techpowerup)

I now flashed it back with the oldbios and in desktop properties it says: gto (so not gtoÂ²).
Is this normal? Can anyone confirm this?
Or maybe they screwed up and got me a gto, allthough the box etc clearly states gtoÂ².
That way i can just get it replaces by a new one and try again :)

But i guess it does :)
