Vgpu and Vmem installed.
With Vgpu at 1.155 loaded and vmem at 2.025 here is a prelim. I get slight artifacts at 820 core and 2000 shader.
So far so GOOD!
vGPU Will be heading north shortly...

PLEEEEEEEASE provide info on cooling and vdrop and vdroop you guys are seeing after the mod
nice clocks, what brand card do you have and what are the clocks, type of cooling is being used i have a gpu block and some ramsinks for the chips is there ne where else that needs to be cooled
nvm about cooling just seen last page, nice temps on the swiftech block, ive got the same one going on, easy as just putting some as5 on and slapping block on?, heard the core can break easy cause its missing s shim or something that the g80 has
If you are using the 7900GTX MCW-60 mount, do NOT tighten all the screws down like you usually do. The G92 core it taller and you will notice the "feet" on the mount do not touch the PCB when the waterblock is resting on the core.Originally Posted by jay_lee300
I used the stock mount and slowly tightened the screws while checking the clearance between the feed on the GPU side and slowly pulled them down to where i felt the block both sat flat on the die (all feet approximately same clearance, slightly touching on outter edge possible due to flex) and did not exert too much pressure. You have to feel it out, LOL.
The rest of the cooling system is 1/2" line, Swiftech 220 radiator and MCW-650 pump. The CPU is air cooled at the moment.
:cheers:
Edit: This is the card. The ramsinks, and that mounting ring are from Viper John. I am using the MCW-60 at the moment as even with some good 90s I did not have room in my case for the X-Fi, so the top two ram chips now have low profile sinks on them to clear the barbs.
I am not seeing any vdrop/vdroop while running ATITool. Unloaded desktop vGPU is now 1.161v and loaded vGPU goes from 1.198v to 1.201v.PLEEEEEEEASE provide info on cooling and vdrop and vdroop you guys are seeing after the mod
Prelim Results at 1.2v
excellent news
what was you gain in 0.5v increments can you give us a rough idea
Here is 5 minutes of ATITool at 848mhz core. The next step up for ROP is 864mhz. ATITool runs without errors but you can see the occasional yellow pixel.
Current vGPU is 1.260v. The memory is pretty much crap, not sure if Nibitor is reading the right timing set but I will probably loosen the timing up and see if there is anymore headroom in them.
Not so bad, too bad the system it is in can't keep up with the card.
:cheers:
excellent man
really excellent
you are not wrong about system not being able to keep up
you'll need a bloody 4.5Ghz+ Quad to just start to keep up
That 900mhz is just teasing me. I'm not quite ready to go over 1.3v yet, gonna play some games for a bit first at this setting.
When I say the system can't keep up, I mean it. LOL
FX-60 @ 3ghz
DFI NF-4 Ultra
2GB G.Skill DDR @ 550mhz, 3-4-4-8
Been holding out for Penryn, Phenom looks like a turd so I'll be building a system in the coming months. My 3Dmark05 score does not change between 700mhz and 800mhz...
zOMG my condolences
Is your shader still at 2GHz? Or did you get it higher?
So, voltage isn't helping the vRAM get any higher than 1GHz? What voltages have you tried?
Yeah, shader is at 2000mhz. Next shader step is 2064mhz which shows some artifacts in ATITool. vRAM is currently at 2.015v. 2.056v did nothing, have not tried higher. With VDDQ tied to VDD on these cards it will probably freak out around 2.1v and at 2.056 it does nothing so I'm not too hopeful there.
EDIT: Hey, looks like the timings that are used in the bios are actually for Samsung GDDR specs. They are a lot tighter than the Qimonda data sheet timings for 1ns chips. I am going to loosen a few timings in the bios and see if it helps the memory OC.

Hey now, it still gets the job done. ROFLzOMG my condolences
Seriously though, at 700mhz core my 3DMark05 score is the same as it is at 800+mhz core.
Awsome results, could any of you run some 3dmarks to see how well the card does and scales.
850MHz on the core is huge, i also think this GDDR3 is crap hopefully someone will use another brand.
dinos
rememer card does not droop /drop at load
umm 3c cooling lol
in a few minutes a zalman vf-1000 with modded fan

So VETDRMS can you show us some pictures of the mod? What's the right way to do it? Also what vr did you use for vgpu and vmem?

Amazing results... I half-want to try the mod, but A) I don't think my Thermaltake ND1's will keep up, and B) I'm honestly worried I would kill the cards trying due to the tiny size of the solder point and adjacent components. GRATS and keep us posted
The benchmarks wouldn't mean much on my system, it is way outpaced by the video card. Sorry.
After some advice from you, I could probably hit it I think now, was picturing a different method in my head. The big question mark is, would my cooler keep up? Think stock-8800GTX cooler, it's basically the same thing.
Sure. I would normally not use the Radioshack VR but I had none around that were low enough.
I used 50K on the vmem as my card came with stock VDD of 1.95 and a 20K bumped that up to 2.056 right away. The 1K on the vGPU is only a 15 turn but the vGPU increments are still fine. It would look better if I had the Bourns type. Oh well.
VETDRMS,
I take you glued the VRs the PCB?
Solder alone won't hold them...
You were not supposed to see this.
I used some strong double stick adhesive. Has worked well all the way back to my poor 9700Pro.VETDRMS,

That vmod looks a lot easier i might try it i only need to get the 1k VRSure. I would normally not use the Radioshack VR but I had none around that were low enough.

Your Vram doesnt seem to overclock over 1000mhz is that right? i can bench at 1040mhz stock volts
Yes, it craps out at 1026mhz, even at 2.025v.That vmod looks a lot easier i might try it i only need to get the 1k VR
