8800Ultra + BlackGate Recap

[NapalmV5]

Congrats pal, should changing the caps on my 8800GTX the normal one could make me go further ?

Cheers

why not? sure itll make it go further but itll depend on what kind/and the quality of the caps youre gonna use

read up a bit on on how/what caps/blackgates do and youll get a better understanding of caps and why your clocks will go increase

could you do some screenshots where we are able to actually see the pq improvements? i'm curious to see your results

i got ut3/etqw installed atm.. what map/screen shots would you like to compare?

ill post some pics later today when i got time..

Sorry, but i still have doubts about these miraculous image improvements just by changing caps. I do think it does change the sound a bit on soundcards, but no way for digital 3D graphics. It's all based on how GPU processes the elements, not some silly caps. And especially not with digital connectivity where DAC's aren't even used. You may get some more stability or OC potential if used on PWM part but nothing else.

well believe it or not the change these caps do on soundcards is miraculous! have you used blackgates on soundcards? or some half arsed cheap caps that do worse than the stock ones.. and just because you didnt get better results than no else is?

im not talking miraculous image improvement.. just more of what the gpu produces to the display.. when i got an 8800gt for a friend i noticed better pq than on my ultra.. it could well just be that the stock caps were not performing the way they shouldve been..

look guys im not here to prove anything to anyone.. just sharing what i do/results i get.. dont like it/have doubts stay away! dont attempt!

only those that will attempt will reap the benefits.. even if your not gonna notice any image improvement youll surely get higher clocks

and i surely didnt post this mod to get any glory
