This voltmod applies to the X700 PCI-Express using PCB #A379.

The blue Sapphire PCB has the same layout as the red ATI PCB, so it will work on all those models no matter which manufacturer.

Do you lower resistance on the soldered VR to increase voltage, or do you raise it?

Specifically where are the voltage read points, I can't make them out in the picture.


Thanks.

noboy better try this guide - you will fry your card! lol
Wizzard might wanna check the guide with an actual card before you post this - 20k on the mem will give you around 3V and 20K on the VGPU 1.9V rofl.

Nice pictures nevertheless

@W1zzard:
Did you test the mods f. g. the pencil mods?
What resistance should it be afterwards?
