Hey guys..
Is it possible to open the 8 disabled pp' on the X800GT?
The cards is visualy the same.. the same size, core and speeds.
Is there anybody here with X800gt? maybe we should check this out.
thanks.

I don't know, but your avatar is priceless.
ATI has stated that the X800GT is a dead die SKU and that all the defective pipes have been laser cut. PowerColor has said that one of their X800GT skus (I want to say it was RX...) would be R480 core, bios unlockable. I think you may be best suited to sit and wait for someone to find out rather than waste $160 of your own money.
Post back if you find anything out. Cheers.
the x800gt is on a diffrent manufacturing process to the XL.
the GT is the older R480 core on the 130nm process and the XL is on the newer 110nm process.

Doe's someone purchase x800gt from sapphire or x800RX from club3D?
Some benches?
Ok. This weekend I am getting Club3d X800RX. As far as I know it is bios locked. I will surely try to unlock those 8 pipes, but here are some questions:
The right bios for this card would Club3d X850XT, right? But i've noticed, that both card uses different cycle memory. The X800RX 2.0 ns, ant the X850XT 1.6 ns. Is it possible to change that in bios? An how? I checked the timings, it seems that they do not differ, compared 2.0 and 1.6 ns memory. That is obvious ofcours why - it's the same memory, GDDR3 :-)
I think that is the only thing to change in bios, because core frequency, can be easily overclocked to the X850XT.
But I need one thing, a picture of Club3d X850XT in hi-res, with cooler taken of. Can anyone help me here?
There is a bunch of x850xt images on Google .....What exactly are you trying to see ?Originally Posted by Hephaestus

What I'm wondering is, even if you could unlock the pipes, the card doesn't have an external power connector. Wouldn't the card become unstable due to the increased power demand?

I was wondering the same . Probalby the clocks will have to be reduced in order to get it stable with more pipes .Originally Posted by Cybercat

I think your thoughts are very logical :-) Additional 8 pipes will need a lot more power. But I think, we would surelly try first to find a bios with which we could unlock those pipes. Lowering frequency isn't such a big deal. Then ofcours voltage mods could come.Originally Posted by Cybercat
very true. although the original person who posted said they *THINK* it looks the same, perhaps they didnt look as carefullyOriginally Posted by Cybercat

Well, someone said, that they are visually the same. I would like to know it for real before modding.Originally Posted by toledo
You'd probably need to vmod it for vgpu vmem and all that niceties. then maybe get a modded bios so that you have the pipes at a lower speed...
If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.
Why vmem?Originally Posted by n00b 0f l337
Ok. We have raised a lot of problems, but still no answers :-) My package was delayed, so I'll get x800RX only on tuesday.
But can someone answer me these?
We for sure need to change the memory type in bios. I can't flash 2.0 ns bios with the 1.6 ns memory bios, right? How can I change that. I've tried a lot of bios editors, but a lot of them can't even open bios files. Maybe hex needed?
2x frequency slowdown for a start is enough?
What are the chances of damaging my card, by bios reflash? And warranty..? :-)

i'm sorry but if your asking these questions i wouldnt advise you to do it, theres an element of risk in all overclocking/modding. warrenty? hahahahahaOriginally Posted by Hephaestus

To my knowledge, nobody has had any success with X800se cards either. I'm not too hopeful for the GTs.
Ofcours theree is risk :-) I am asking just for the interest.Originally Posted by Jamo
But here's another thought. Why do not mod to x850 Pro? It's 12 pipes, that means it consumes less power.
alot of the X800XL's do not have a external power option.
however, I wouldn't hold my breath hoping the X800GT be unlockable.
I am sure ATI must be sick of that by now, haha...
Yeah but the XLs use a core on 110nm, which undoubtedly uses less power than the 130nm cores the X800GTs use.

stingush you said you've flashed to X800GT BIOS, but you didn't mention nothing about the pipes? Can you show us some shots so we can see if they really work right?
Thanks
Yep, i wanna see too this screen!
Bur how about x800RX from club3d? If they are only BIOS lokcked, its pretty easy to flash another bios, and try how luck you are
this is kool, until something badd happens L0L

I emailed him asking how he opened to 16pipes.
