X6800@VapoLS + X1950XTX Stock

[Pedro Rocha]

Received today the X1950XTX, here is the 1st quick results with x6800 at the VapoLS..

Video Card is 100% stock, just increase a little bit the vcore - from 1.45v to 1.5v ..

Here is a photo


The X1950XT seems to run colder than the X1900XTX and MUCH more silent

Here is a quick result of my favorite bench :



Not bad for single stock card

2005 Run :



Still can not get a X1950CF master, but I will do some tests with the X19000 MasterCard ..so more to come

Looks good Pedro, how is Beta 16 working for you on 1950?

[symphy]

Wow, impressing scores. Nice clock for X6800 and standard Vapo .

did you use LOD?
a 7900Gt at 700core can reach already 500fps in nature

[TaPaKaH]

did you use LOD?

LOD = 3

nice pedro

Yes, I disable the ATI service, just raise the core voltage from 1.45v to 1.50v and that's it ..

Beta 16 works reasonably well at leat for the core speed, but I suspect is limited on the memory

Anyway I will test it with a X1900 MasterCard I will post further results ..

thats an insane score for single card
almost catches up to x1900xtx crossfire
now shamino just needs to try and get a cascade on one of these "crimson loveboats"
increase vcore to 1.6 and see what happens (you always have rma lol)

[Foxy_PT]

Nice results on single card

[blind_ripper]

thx pedro , card here has hard coldbug 0°C blackscreen

[Rovtar]

nice scoores, keep us posted...

[Pedro Rocha]

Since I dont have the X1950 Master card yet, I decide to test the X1950XTX with one "old" X1900 Master Card..

Here is the photo:



Clocks :
X1900 Master Card: 746-846
X1950 XTX :746-1143

Here is the 3Dmark 2001 result :



Compare URL: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9053756

The new Catalyst that suports the 1950 seems that are not very Nature frienldy in Crossfire mode, so I have to do some "mix" with older drivers...

Anyway, not to bad for 2 graphic cards with stock coolers in a system for 24/7 use ..

Rly nice to see that this card can do 700+ core..all reviews show a 20-30mhz overclock as max.
Like this http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/vid...1950xtx_8.html
"So, the highest frequencies at which the overclocked Radeon X1950 XTX was stable were 670/1100MHz, and it would be unwise to demand anything more from a premium-class product."

For XS users is allways "wise" to demand more

nice X1900CF/X1950XTX for 01 .

im using beta 15 with overclocker tool.


X1950XTX stock hsf , VDDCI - 1.391, Vgpu - 1.55, VDDQ/VDDC - 2.10

It seems to me that Nature and the drags are being bound by the X1900 Master, they appear identical to what you'd expect from 2X X1900 in CF at those speeds.

Nice work my friend i will be getting mine today

[chefnr1]

I think there should be an option in atitool that can give more volt to the core and to let go of hardmod it, and the memory sucks on this card every i see is stuck att 1143mhz it's a shame for such good mem...

[charlie]

I'd sure like to game on that rig with a 30" LCD monitor...

most volts that can be applied through ati tool or any
other software tool is 1.60 vgpu............

well in this atitool ATITool_0.25_b16pre4 theres a max for gpu at 1,575v not 1,60v

[Rattle]

what drivers you guys using on the x1950's

[chefnr1]

i have used the driver that came with the card but for now i use 6.9beta just waiting for cat 6.10...
and i wonder when it's going to post recently on the orb with x1950 card they have been out for atleast a couple of weeks now, well you can post them but not compare with other thats to slow of futuremark i think...

[Pedro Rocha]

I'd sure like to game on that rig with a 30" LCD monitor...

Only 23" LCD - 1920x1200 here

Here is an update, still on the Vapochill LS and ATI stock coolers - still using X1900 Mastercard



With 1.50v on the core the X1950XTX reach easily 760-1143 (current limit of ATITool on memory), score, nature in special, are heavy penalized by the X1900 Master low mem speed ..

X1950 CF Master this week I hope, let's hope they are not to cold bugged, we finally need to give a good use to Ricky's double cascade (2 evaporators) that are accumulating dust due the dam graphic cards cold bug ..here is a photo of it :
