8800GT voltage mods

[jason4207]

i didnt there is a pencil mod for that and it is quite easy, but this vRAM doesnt seem to respond good to volts

Well I am hoping my RAM will fare better w/ a little extra volts. I was only getting 929 stable earlier. Now it seems 951 is stable...gonna try a little higher. I know 972 isn't stable. I don't understand why doing the BIOS mod would affect the maximum RAM clocks, but I'm not complaining. Maybe they just needed to break in?

Yes, I did the BIOS volt mod. I just want to thank you guys for the valuable info, and thanks to Mavke for his hard work!

I was only getting 712/1674/929 (pretty low) stable earlier on my vanilla GT. I actually got a card w/ stock 600/1500/900 clocks despite the fact a lot of folks got SC factory clocks on their vanilla GT's. (got it through eVGA's step-up...320GTS-->GT)

Now I'm getting 741/1728/951 artifact free under ATI Tool...so far. Temps are 70 on the stock cooler w/ 100% fan.

Next step is to get the HR03GT (when it's released), and a good fan on there. Then some VRs will help me get in the 800/2000's...I hope!

edit: I may just leave my RAM alone if it'll run at 950. No use to go higher until I understand better this rumor I hear of the RAM dieing if you OC it to 1000.
