Mod Radeon 9550 GT

[Evil Yuri]

Can I mod a 9550GT? How? What does it become?
Thank you anticipated!

[ati.bob]

you can just overclock it.. flash it with a 9600 BIOS.. nothing more than that.. :D

9550 GT!?!?! Thats an nvidia marketing brand.

[ati.bob]

now nVidia and ATI are friends.. :D We should see better graphic cards in the future.. :D:D:D hehehehehe.. :D just joking.. :D

So thwy say the radeon 9550GT has 400/400Mhz. I've tried to oc it and with AtiTool it shows only 250Mhz for GPU and 200for memory! What is with it ? Are those the real values or Atitool shows them eronated. If I overclock the memory over 270Mhz the screeen is filled with artifacts. And the GPU can get to 350Mhz. What program showld I choose to oc it? Something easy to download (not 30Mb)
Thank U All.

The 9550 is 250/200 stock not 400/400! :D Getting close to 270 on the ram is pushin it pretty far. I wouldnt expect anything past that if I were you. I would consider myself lucky to get that.

I get 450 MHz core and 550 MHz memory with my Sapphire 9550 and Samsung TC40 memory chips.
With stock active cooling.
3410 3dmarks 03, 1410 3dmarks 05, ~12000 3dmarks01, 29000 aquamarks

Looks like you good some good memory chips - my sapphire only reaches 430 MHz with stock cooling. Wish I had good 4ns chips.....

[sweeper]

I'm suprised at the limit I can push my 4ns ram to. It's pretty decent 400/290 (580DDR).;)

[JALOOS]

AH don't havta dick with the Sapphire 9550 anymore got the XFX 6600gt. Kicks butt :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

There are some 4ns Samsung chips not capable of reaching 250Mhz(500DDR). My card( ASUS 9550GE/TD rev1.0 ) reaches stock 9600Pro 400/600 freq 100% rock stable, although it has 5ns Samsung chips. It's not about the memory, it's about if you are lucky or not.:)


P.S. My first post here.

malware, what bios did you use?
If it is just stock, can you dump your bios pls, and put it here?

thnx

[ati.bob]

4ns chips are supposed to run at default 250MHz speeds... no surprises... ;)

I'm using PowerColor 9600Pro TSOP memory BIOS with edited freq: 400core/600memory. I have my original BIOS dumped too, but you can find it on the main page(ati bios collection).
