It Works??? :confused:Quote:

It work only if I use it in conjunction with RT 206, not alone.
Else, Someone has the resulting values from the 100K VR?
yup it works for me. make sure you have "if card has 2d 3d clocks,switch to 3d..." is checked and suspend while ATItool is running resume on quit. in the HD 2000 overclocking section. which is in settings. i know dont make any sense but i hope that helps..:rofl:
Unfortunately it doesn't. :mad:
Could it be a conflict with CCC?
Perhaps I missed something?
bring on the VMEM damnit! i gotta see 1400Mhz at least! :D
So does anyone know what the VGPU would start at if I were to use a 50k VR?
about 1.42Quote:

i dont know at which voltage it would start.
but i tested both:
2x50k ohm and 1x100k ohm set to the max.
both result in 1,08v 2d and 1,24v 3d.
(measured on two power color hd 3850 ;)
Thanks. I'd use 2 but I only have 2 of them on hand and I have 2 3870s ;)Quote:

The thing is, I don't know what voltage I am running...Can anyone tell me where to measure my vGPU?

gurusan,
There are several vGPU measuring points in the pic you posted.
All those metallic spots on the bright red area on the far right side of your pic are vGPU measuring points.
So, i got the courage yesterday to do the volt-mod, and i did, and after much testing, i reached a stable 859/999 at 1.4v, max temp of 75c at a 60% fan duty.
Had a lot of trouble getting a cool idle temp with RivaTuner, or even ATI Tool, so i just editted the BIOS of the card to clock itself to 859 on load, and it worked ... no more manual overclock and above all 35c idle temp :).
Just waiting now for Stilt's BIOS, wonder why he's taking so long to post it 0.o
Which ones in particular? I've tried all them but they give bogus readings like .8 and 1vQuote:

any pencil mods for the 3870?
Is it not the same as the 3850?Quote:

Thanks.
Well I was being stupid before and those metal points certainly are vGPU measure points.
I was at 1.84v :p I have no problem pushing limits but even that is a bit roasty for me on a 55nm process, watercooling or not. So I've lowered clocks to 840mhz.... 1.4v idle 1.5v load ....now temps are 29c idle 37c max load
Would like to figure out a gddr3 vdimm mod for this card, and once I've pushed the limits I will need a new toy :p

What's the max safest voltage for 3850 please? or in general, what's the max voltage in % that most usually don't pass?
:eek: :shocked: Now that is some serious volts :yepp:Quote:

Wow thats great gurusan I have two of those cards and I'm waiting for good overclocking tool for cf. I will try the pencil mod when one comes out. what water block are you using?
No other timeframe than "soon" was given but w1zzard also said that voltage control would be very limited unfortunately :(Quote:

Quick question, would this trimmer work for this mod?

Havent testet it becuase 1350Mhz is more then enough for me ;)
I have now pencil mod'd the vcore so the circuit is a total off 4.59Kohm, default is it 5.1Kohm
Hope some good results ;)
