ATI 4850/4870 voltmod thread

[Big.Wayne]

I have read through this thread and realise it's way over my head!

I must buy myself a multimeter and learn how to use it, that would be a start I guess, then perhaps buy myself a nice soldering kit and start practicing.

I am wondering if some of you are trained engineers that got into moddin computer hardware or you were once regular computer enthusiasts who became trained engineers!

Lastly what is the rough increase in GPU and Memory clocks you guys have got from your volt-modding labours pls? (compared to an unmodded stock card).

welder by day modder by night..lol, you can get as much as 50% more out of a 4850. mine runs good at 900, stock is 625. some members have been to 1000 on the RV770 and I'm sure Gomeler will be pushing 1100 soon, ( whoops maybe I wasn't supposed to say anything....)
