X800 fuses data for unlocking

[dolf]

ok heres mine i hope...dont know if itll anything can be doneAIW x800xl 256 (256bit)

Obviously you are already with 16 pipes and probably with X800XT BIOS. The only thing that can be done is to overclock it to X800XT PE speeds and if it is stable on them eventually to flash X800XT PE BIOS which will bring you dynamic fan-control.

Hey everyone. I recently got a Retail Sapphire x800GTO 256MB AGP.

Here's the card info:

Based on some other posts I've looked at, mine should be moddable to 16 pipes, but I'm posting the data just in case. Also, this thread's quite big with a lot of info, so if I'm able to mod mine, could you provide the instructions/links to what flashing programs and such I should use? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello every one !

im like very new at this i just found out that i could even oc my card "ATI_X800XL_PCI-E" so plz tell me what i can do to make it the best it could be. cuz its default (400/490) i oc it to (435.25/544.50) is that good ?? its my first card so i really need some help!! and does it matter what ati tool you use the .24 or the .25 beta 14 ?? and would i be able to flash it well hope i to hear someting soon.:D :respect:

Awesome, thanks a lot! Now running smoothly on 16 pipes :D

My 3DMark05 score went from 4325 to 4741, no overclocking yet. Also gave games like FEAR just enough of a boost to make it nice and smooth at high settings.

Thanks again.

Hi guys!
I just got this X800Pro, no VIVO, apparently BBA.
This is the screenshot:

The only chance for you (even insignificant) is to conduct hardmod (to connect the left bridge) and to pray. On the BIOS level you are already with 16 pipes. After connecting of the bridge take the fuses again and post them.

[swoop]

It is the first X850PRO PCI-E which can be modded to 16 pipes :D . :toast: . If you need help let me know. You can directly flash with XT or XT PE BIOS or modded PRO BIOS. Just don't forget to use modified flashrom or atiflash with -newbios option within the command line.

Woooohoooo! Unlocked to 16 pipes with XT PE bois with about 30% increase in performance. First X850PRO PCI-E to be modded with 16 pipes I feel special. Thanks for your help dolf :toast:

Thanks for the info, Dolf!
After a long week finally the week-end has come and I found some time to mess with the card :) I tried a pencil trick today, but it apparently didn't work, as nothing changed in AtiTool (same 12 pipes, die_fuses and other data, I suppose something would have changed if the contact was made) :(. I will look for something else, as I'm not crazy enough to try soldering :D, and will keep you informed (I hope I can find something else here...)

Look the successfull hard mod will be indicated at minimum with change in last digit of SUBSTRATE fuses to F. It is not enough for 16 pipes but means good contact over the left bridge. First of all you have to clean the contact dots with something sharp (they are protected with lacquer). When connecting DON'T fill the laser cut trace with conductive compaund!!!

I did the cleaning, I think this part is ok, the problem is probably in the pencil, will try to find some conductive paint or similar. Do you mean I should go around the laser cut trace? Or through it, but only a thin line?

[dolf]

Yes around the laser cut trace. If you are lucky the DIE fuses also should be changed. If they remain unchanged it mean that no more pipes unfortunately.

Here you are modded to 16 pipes BIOS. Use flashrom16 (modified flashrom) with: flashrom -f -p 0 bios16.bin or atiflash with: atiflash -f -p -newbios 0 bios16.bin both in DOS mode.

I tried the 12 pipe to 16 pipe hardmod however it was not sucessful...i'm not sure if i did it correctly, there was a lasercut which i did put conductive paint on top of in order to link the two traces. I did NOT flash the bios (still using the one that came with the card out of the box)

[dolf]

The fuses show that no more pipes are possible. The successfull connecting of the left bridge will result in change of the last digit of CONFIG_SUBSTRATE_FUSES = 0xFFFFFF1E to 0xFFFFFF1F. The chance to obtain 16 pipes is almost 0 but connecting the bridge can result in change also in CONFIG_DIE_FUSES (you should be very lucky). In that case your card could have 16 pipes on hardware level, because on BIOS level you are already with 16 pipes :) .

[munz778]

thanks very much for the response.

I think that link could help you to understand: http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/radeon/rx800-3.html ;) But with such fuses the chance for 16 pipes is almost 0 and you have to know that.

Hi, I've been reading around on various forums and I've been wondering if my card is unlockable from its 8 pipes to 12 or so.

It's an AGP Sapphire Radeon X800GT.

I just have it overclocked right now, but I would like to open my pipes.

Here's my ATI Tool screenshot:
http://img.techpowerup.org/060607/untitled3ao.jpg

Thanks for any help :)


Also, when I dump my BIOS, RaBit tells me that my card is an SE, if that helps.

[dolf]

No more pipes even 12 sorry :mad: .

[theskyfadesaway]

Ah, okay.

I guess I should just spend time using it than tweaking it, huh?




Thanks for your help, dolf, you've been the only person so far to give me a direct answer.

Hi there,

Sorry if im wrong, but you have just given Darkalester a link to a bios for the agp version of the card, i have compared my atitool info to darkalesters and they are identical, which im guessing means that he also has a pci-e card, same as me..

i am about to flash the bios for my gto2 but am just making sure that this is correct. if the agp bios can be used for the pci-e card too..

once again i apologize if im incorrect..

I dont think so, r430 is a bad overclocker..... i have seen r430 vith vmod up to 465Mhz..., my without vmod works at 440 with ati silencer on it...and from 440 to 465 isnt that mutch performance boost that worth vmodding.....only my opinion

Hi people, I’ve just read about 70 pages of this thread and managed to register just to be able to be part of this community.

I too have a Sapphire X800GT card, but it only has 8piplines active and would like to see if I can get at least 12 :laugh:

I'm not any expert but after reading some posts I'm sure that if it is doable you guys would know it, and maybe even help me through it.:respect:

I'm using it with a Zalman VF700-Cu and ram heat sinks. Can't tell you if it has laser cut or not, because it already came with the new cooler. :D

Thanks again and hope to hear from you all soon.

[dolf]

Unfortunately no more pipes :mad: . Sooooorry. Your card has R420 core which is with 2 laser cuts. You can try to connect the right bridge but most probably the result will be again 8 pipes.

No problem, I can't always win...hehe.
And I got a good price for it anyway :laugh:.

By the way, when I use TRIX or the ATItool to see the stable overclock it just doesn't seem to stop. ATItool took like 30 min or more testing and looking fro errors (didn’t find any). Normally after a slight increase of the stock speed you can see some problems, but all that time was making me nervous, so I pressed "Abort". One of the reasons was that I couldn’t see the speeds it was doing and I didn't want to burn it. What do you recommend?

Thanks again for your reply.:D

PS: At least this thread brought me to this nice forum.

i dont think its crap,it certainly beats my last chip(a64 3000+@2.4ghz).i have had less probs with this then the amd,and it was cheaper than the lowest amd x2 3800+,and out performs it at 4gig.at the mo' amd mite be the best,but not for long when core2 comes out.and the jump from 939 ddr to 940 ddr2 has done nothing for amd.

not many can beat 8400mb/s on the sandra mem test,and the cache and mem bandwidth is good,games like lots of mem bandwidth.
with a differant board your 920 should do roughly the same as mine,wots the lvl 2 cache on that?.mine is 2x2mb

OK. New board for me.

i think you need the asus p5wd2 premium.if its a new revision it may support core 2 duo.if i'd had more money this would'a been the one i got.mine is a 955x chipset,the premium is 975x.i dont know what country you're in,but in the uk this board is about £150.

Got my Sapphaire Radeon X800GTO on Friday.
It has problems. I get red, green, and blue dots all over my display when it boots into Windows. I've tried updating every driver for my motherboard and it didn't help. I even took it to work today and tried it on a PC there and I got the same thing. I also tried the latest Catalyst and even earlier versions, but that didn't help.
I called ATI and they think I have a bad memory module.
Newegg has issued my RMA and I'm going to get it replaced.

On a high note, I went ahead and tried unlocking the pipes just to see what would happen and I was able to get all 16 pipes. I pulled the heatsink and I have the 430 chip. Too bad something is wrong with the card. Hope I can unlock the one they send to replace it...

[Casheti]

Why would you want that card? And how much did you pay for it? I got my Sapphire Radeon X850XT for £115

Well, I got the X850XT from ebay. BARGAIN! And nothing wrong with it so far. Idle temps never below 39*C with stock cooler @ 100% though. But I'm buying a new Arctic Cooling fan for it anyway. And, about the new motherboard, I'll have to wait a while for some money. :( I guess maybe I might be able to get one at christmas. I'm planning to buy another GB of ram as well, before the new board, to see If i can improve my FPS in games enough to be happy with. AND PLEASE, SOMEBODY REPLY TO MY ATi Tray Tools Settings THREAD!! PLEASE!!

[bchivers]

That is the thread that "tells you how to unlock any that may have been cut?". But you can read and interpretate the fuse values :) .Can you tell me if I have any?

[dolf]

Can you tell me if I have any?

The fuses are not full but for sure you are on the max. number of pipes.

[ali2487]

PLEASE WOULD SOMEBODY REPLY TO MY QUESTION GUYS PLEASE?

These are my fuses

I know that i have the r423 core but i am mystified by the fact that i can oc from 475/450 stock clocks to 560/650 staedy clocks

I am also geting a 3D Marks of 1058 on 3D mark06

so please advise me!

[Casheti]

You Disgust Me Because You Own A Dell

[tenstrum]

Why would you want that card? And how much did you pay for it? I got my Sapphire Radeon X850XT for £115

Because I have an AGP mobo and don't want to build a whole new system just yet. I paid $100 US for the card.

dolf Thanks for your reply. I don't understand what you mean by the fuses are not full. What do I do next? Where do I look for the pipes on the card?

See your fuse picture and compare it with the others and you will understand. Regardless of that (not full lenght) you can't change the number of the pipes.

[dolf]

hey DOLF

would you mind telling me how to unlock to 12 pipes? i am currently on 8!

You have to connect the right bridge on your R423 using conductive compaund (paint, lacquer, glue). First you have to clear rhe contact dots with something sharp and to remove the isolation (they are covered with lacquer). Don't fill the laser cut with conductive material. Connect making a conductive trace around the laser cut. After successfull connection the last digit of your CONFIG_SUBSTRATE_FUSES=0xFFFFF61D will be changed to 0xFFFFF61F. Only then you can have 12 pipes.

[Casheti]

Is 16 pipes the max for my X850XT?

[soypunisher]

I'd appreciate if someone could help me about modding this card. Here is the atitool dialog box.

[ali2487]

hey dolf

can i do this with the compund which is put in between the core and the heatsink? and as for the link should i just get a pin and etch a groove into the laquer going around the laseer cut and then fill it with compound? is this correct?

You have to buy conductive lacquer or paint. You can't do it with silver thermal grease.

hi,
is there a way to mod 16 pipes ?

samsung 2.0ns

thx 4 help

[ali2487]

ok then dolf so once i get the laquer or paint i etch a deep groove into the substance it already has on the card around the laser cut and fill it right?

Are those actual pictures of your ATI tool? If so, it already looks to be unlocked to 16 pipes....

[Casheti]

You may have 16 pipelines, but you have the R430 core, so therefore you suck.

[Casheti]

How much did you pay in English pounds for it?

I got my graphics card like a few weeks ago for £115

[stevorob]

You may have 16 pipelines, but you have the R430 core, so therefore you suck.

Why spam this nonsense? Lots of people have the R430 and have great luck with their cards. Sure they don't overclock well, but for the price, they are awesome.

Please don't post unhelpful information.

[Casheti]

Well, I dont see your post helping anyone

[stevorob]

I was asking if those were his pics... If they are, there is no need to flash because his pipes are already unlocked...

[Casheti]

Well who do you think the pics belong to, the queen?

Look, madtaz, you could have saved a little bit longer and got a better card. Now is not the time to be buying GTO's.

Nowadays, with AGP, you'd play games real nice on an X800XT PE. :)

[stevorob]

Please just stop spamming.

madtaz
Your pipes are unlocked from the looks of the pics you posted, so there is no need to flash. R430 cores don't overclock well, but the extra pipes can make up for it. Have fun with it, and watch your temps. The extra pipes make the core run hotter than it should. I would advise replacing the stock cooler for either a zalman or an ati silencer to help keep your temps low.

[dolf]

Madtaz, answering to your question I will repeat the above post. You don't need to flash that card because it is on the max. of the pipes. Just use it as it is or buy better cooling (ATISilencer) I will recommend that because the memory is cooled too.

As dolf said, no more pipes for you....Sorry but no bios in the world wont make it 16 pipes...

[dolf]

4 pipes :( cant seem to unlock - any ideas?

It seems that ATI uses all the cores even with 4 pipes. Your fuses show that no space left and you will remain with 4 pipes. But for sure those 4 pipes can work faster. It shouldn't be problem 500-540MHz for the core.

[Casheti]

Even an X1300 has 4 pipes

[the_cat-dog]

It seems that ATI uses all the cores even with 4 pipes. Your fuses show that no space left and you will remain with 4 pipes. But for sure those 4 pipes can work faster. It shouldn't be problem 500-540MHz for the core.

Then ATI should be beaten down with a big stick for creating a 4pipe core on an x800 series. I live in shame for buying it as well. Never mind eh. I'm prob gonna get an x1800GTO and unlock it to the x1800XL. good idea?

[Casheti]

No, get XL and unlock to an XT

[the_cat-dog]

Take into account money here!

x1800GTO = £125 (unlock to x1800XL)
x1800XL = £175 (unlock to x1800XT)
x1800XT = £190

-seems better value to get the GTO and unlock the extra pipes.

I dont have much money left and I bought my x800ve for £110 ish and could probably sell it for around £90.

I'm not too fussed about massive frame rates. Just want to comfortably run Oblivion (ie not 8-20fps I often get with this x800ve :o )

Also yes its very overclockable. 425:400 stock, 590:575 stable at the mo with no problems under stock cooling. But the 4 pipes means that my 3dmark scores are still shit, even though the overlcoking managed about 37% increase in speed!!

ps thanks for help dolf

That card is not designed for high bench results or gaming but for TV watching and video. One thing is sure that R420 is created to work at 520MHz without problem. Your memory probably 2.0ns should work at 500MHz (max. overclock 540-580MHz).

hi, i have a his x800gto iceq2 vivo r480... i broke my mobo so im waiting for a new 1 but in the mean time... can u all explain to me how the process will go?can r480 cores go to the clocks of a x850xtpe?
oh yeah also i have 1.6 ns samsung

[Casheti]

Yeah. That owns. Can't wait to get one. But GOD DAMN, the X850XT's get so damn hot. I peaked in BF2 at 78*C with stock fan at 100%, and I idle around the 40*C mark

[ali2487]

im idling 34-35 mate! i have to say the stock fan is CRAP! do ur card a fovour and buy it a cooler! it will run MUCH happier maybe even higher clocks! wen i had a stock cooler on my x800gt i was clocking 520/570 after i gt a cooler i gt stable clocks of 560/630 (core/mem) never going over ~50oC !

[Casheti]

Nice, also, the Arctic Cooling Silencer 5 cools memory independantly too :) Thats a nice feature. I cant wait to get one. THEY ARE SOOOO COOL (GEDDIT, COOL, HEHE)

[Casheti]

Oh, and when you say never over 50*C, do you mean while playing games?

[ali2487]

Oh, and when you say never over 50*C, do you mean while playing games?

ye sory mate

50 wile playin games plus wen i run the furry dice thing on ATI tool which is supposed to heat it WAY more than any other game soo...........id say pretty gud!

[Casheti]

WOW, thats some real good temps dude.

[ali2487]

WOW, thats some real good temps dude.

i know i was surprised myself! seeing as i had to customise the cooler a bit to fit into my comp the pentium heatsink was in the way so i had to get it modified!

[Casheti]

Lol, what cooler have you got on the CPU?

[ali2487]

Lol, what cooler have you got on the CPU?

SHITTY CRAPPY dell cooler mate! looking to upgrade it soon to an artic freezer because i hear that the cooler the pentium the faster it runs sooo guta giv it a try if it dnt run faster atleast it will run cooler n quieter so no losses!

[Casheti]

Yeah, I guess, I got a cooler master, which are OK I guess, but I have the worst motherboard known to man, so the BIOS are locked so I cant adjust CPU fan speed, or Overclock the CPU or anything, which sucks a little. Tbh, theres a lot I need to do to my computer to make it an effectively cooled rig, as it sucks ass for heat at the moment. Motherboard temps have reached around 70*C before, and considering my case is so cramped, and the lack of fans I have, and also the lack of space, it pretty much says to me that I need way better cooling, starting with the graphics, as my graphics card is my pride and joy, and I dont want it to melt. My case is so crap that the back of the case got bent a smidge when installing the X850XT. It was so hard to screw it in, I had to get my sister to help me :)

[tigger]

are you gonna get a new mobo casheti?.i have an arctic on my machine i run the fan full speed all the time tho',i've tried it on auto speed,but it gets into a loop.fan runs slow so chip gets hot so fan speeds up,when its cooler fan slows so chip gets hot so fan speeds up,gets cooler fan slows etc etc.i have a zalman vf700cu on my pussy of a x800gto.432,560 is the max clocks on this crappy 430 core.it was only £50 on special from ocku tho'.
i'm thinking of a 7600gt next tho' s'only £117 from ocuk for a bfg one,i've read the tests on it and it just about beats a 6800ultra.
can you post some pics of your machine and i will do the same.i have an akasa eclipse 62 case.it is really long(560mm) and wide(240mm).

[Casheti]

Honestly mate, you are my Pentium D GOD!! I really wanna be able to overclock my pussy 2.8GHz Pentium D 920 to 4.0GHz like you did. I'm so gonna get your mobo, if it doesn't cost too much. My rig is bog standard apart from the mouse and the X850XT, so theres not much to see. I'll post my pics l8r

Your fuses don't match up, so I don't believe the extra pipes can be unlocked. However, you have an R480 core, which is great for overclocking. Stick an ATI Silencer 5 or a Zalman VF900 on it, and you should be set.

[Casheti]

Hey stevorob, could your system BE any more stock? Get rid of all that Dell crap, and pretend it's a mesh, or a HP or sumthin'.

[dolf]

Hey guys this thread is not ironware. There should be another thread for cases, mobo's and DELL :D . It should be "X800 fuses data for unlocking "............

so there's nowere in hell i can unlock the piplines?
why?

I got a crappy DELL 8400 system too.. :laugh:

wich of the coolers are best?

[stevorob]

Casheti
stfu and quit spamming.

NSXR
I know how you feel... my system is getting pretty old, so eventually I'll be building a new one... I've got an 8300.

For my comp, I chose the ATI Silencer purely because it vents heat out of the back of the case... my case has poor ventilation, so it doesn't take much to heat it up. Temps are good with the silencer... 33-35 idle depending on room temp and about 53-55 load.

[Casheti]

I have reported you for spam and harassment... quit being a little kid a grow up. I don't need to take advice from you about my system.

How about being helpful instead of being a dick to people. Maybe someone would then listen to you...

NSXR
Yeah, mine does the same thing if I leave my door closed... my room will heat up 6 or 8 degrees. When you're not in your room, heh, leave the door open and get some circulation.

[Casheti]

Listen stevorob, I don't care what you report me for, because I think you're a n00b to be honest. And I like the word n00b, because I think it's funny. And what's with the WTF???

I have had 206 posts now, and only YOU have ever had a problem with them, so it's you who is creating the problem in the first place, by moaning.

Dude, Why, You Have An X800 Already, At Least Get The Xt, Or An X850

Wanna see something amazingly flukey?

This is the first ever benchmark I did with my X850XT, and for some reason, it got whoop ass reults.

how do you get the tray tool benchmarker m8?.

[Frogger]

how do you get the tray tool benchmarker m8?.

do a google on 'Ray ADams ati tray tools' download and install:wtf: :wtf:

[Casheti]

I think the reason for that score was because my card was somehow staying cool. When the temperatures start to pick up...I get crappy marks.

I can do LaserCut on R480 its possible !

If you find the correct bridges :laugh:
It is not possible to do the "laser cut mod" on R480. This can be done only with R423.
Sorry man, but there is not way how to unlock pipes on your card. :(

Unfortunately you can't have more pipes but the core should be R480 and should be very good overclocker (600+ MHz).

[The_M@ster]

THX for the answer but the core is R423 not R480

[Steevo]

No, it is a R480. The BIOS just reports it as a R423, it is in essence lying to the drivers when they install.


Now don't talk back to the man.

[The_M@ster]

Excuse me,I thought it is R 480.
Thx for the answer ;) :(

[rpg711]

look on the chip if ur still doubtfull, if its r423 then there usually wont be anything but if its r480 there will be the letters r480

[Steevo]

Or just OC it and see how far it goes.

Low 400's is a R423 or crappy R430, mid 400's is a common R430 and anything over 480Mhz is a R480.

Pretty simple.

no, some amazing r430's made it to 500 core but anything over 550 core is a r480

With aftermarket cooling solutions.

[rpg711]

or, u have a his x800gto with r430 core... i have a r480 but im making a example as r430... their coolers are amazing, its a modded version of the ac silencer except it has a copper base that has aluminum fins

[skooma]

Ok heres mine: Sapphire X800GTO with standard 12 pipes.

I'm not a complete noob when it comes to computers but i am a complete noob when it comes to overclocking and such, so if someone has the time to take me through unlocking it to 16 pipes (if i even can) then please do, thanks.

[rpg711]

no... did u underclock ur vid card to 23 core 1 mem? that cant be right use the beta 14 version instead

[skooma]

lol, yea i just noticed that after i posted, here is the one from beta 14 version

Dump your BIOS in additional options, and save it to a compressed folder, and post it for modding.

[AntiKris]

Hey folks--I've tried to sort through the forums and figure it out for myself, but now I'm just really confused. Here's the fuse info from AtiTool:

CONFIG_DIE_FUSES 0xFFFFEFFF
CONFIG_SUBSTRATE_FUSES 0xFFFFFF9E
CONFIG_ROM_FUSES 0x261
GB_PIPE_SELECT 0x6E48

I've got 12 pipes showing; apparently the 1 at the end of the ROM_FUSES indicates that one quad is locked in the bios. I've got a sinking feeling that my first register is the kiss of death, as it's the same as H20's, and for some reason, Dolf deemed his pipes unlockable. Hopefully I'm wrong, so two questions:

a) can I unlock 16 pipes?
b) if not, is there anything else I can do with the card?

Appreciate your patience and advice. Cheers.

[rpg711]

correct me if im wrong, im rather new at this fuses stuff but the config die seems ok... im not sure about the substrate... doesnt it have to be a f instead of a e? and i would like to learn how to read the last 2 fuses

It is strange result for ATITool because that are not the fuse values but the core registers themselves. Try with other version and if the result is the same just flash with 16 piped BIOS and see. If you have 16 pipes the fuses are OK and you don't need to worry. If still 12 pipes something with the fuses isn't OK but you can't do nothing.

Unfortunately your feeling is correct and you can't unlock more pipes. The only thing that you can do is to overclock.

[tc_terencec]

CAn I unlock to 16 pipelines... or am i stuck at 12?? Sapphire Radeon X800GTO Ultimate PCI-e Core = R480.... more system specs on side...

Sorry , no more pipes for u, but R480 is a great owerclocker.

[tc_terencec]

ahhh darn... whatever... it was a gift from my dad anyways :p being a 16 year old kid sure sucks sometimes...

Anyhow... i might be posting this on the wrong thread... but some quick feedback would be nice...

I got Catalyst 6.6 installed, and Battlefield 2 with patch 1.30. Even if I run BF2 with settings at low, and catalyst options set at "high performance" AND with the card overclocked using sapphire's TRIXX, i still get occasional frame drops and major lags, and sometimes it just quits the game immediately after loading the map... Perhaps this is the result of the lack of RAM in my system (512mb value ram) :D thx!

[skooma]

Dolf i already did it with the beta 14 version its on the page before but i'll post it here too :)
http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/9247/untitled24pj.jpg

by the way, im not sure if it matters but its an AGP card.

I have an X800GTO AGP and 1280mbs RAM, i usually get about 30-40 fps on BF2 without it dropping at all, but everytime i load a single player map the game crashes to the desktop :confused:

Here you go. (at least i think thats what you wanted me to do)

3045

[dolf]

Skooma, here you are modede to 16 pipes BIOS. Flash it with atiflash using the following command line: atiflash -f -p -newbios 0 bios16.bin
Or you can use my automated bootable flash utility on CD image: http://www.savefile.com/projects.php?pid=971168

Download also the flashing instructions. You have to use the main utility because it contains your BIOS (not ver.1 or ver.2)

Success

[skooma]

Do i use the ATI winflash utility with the cd image? also, just a couple of questions, will this cause alot of extra heat on my graphics card? from the tempatures i have heard other people tell me their card usually runs at i think mine must have a relativley good fan :) the most i have seen it is about 60 degrees while gaming. Also a little off topic, do you think the omega drivers are better than catalyst?

[rpg711]

dont use winflash as it doesnt save a backup, ur better off using ati flash and the atiflash -f -p -newbios 0 bios16.bin command umm omegas are better for the 9000's but catalyst is better for most others but if u want allittle more fps, get hacked drivers like dna drivers this is the site where u get it (dna-drivers.com)

[skooma]

Ok and where are the flashing instructions i cant seem to find them:confused:

[rpg711]

ok if ur new to cd images, use nero or any other burning and use the burn image thing and burn it to a cd, once u do that restart comp and go to bios, put cd as the first boot device and success, dont forget to use the atiflash -f -p -newbios 0 bios16.bin command and success;)

[skooma]

Ok done! thanks you guys are legends :) i chose the overclocked one because i wasnt sure what realto was :confused: but i just checked with everest and it says 16 pipelines so i'm happy. But when you said not to forget to use atiflash -f -p -newbios 0 bios16.bin command where was i suppose to use it? because i didnt use it at all :ohwell:

[rpg711]

gj on unlocking! lol i just unlocked so i have no idea wat im talking about but it seems like i did it right then

[dolf]

Skooma atiflash is integrated in the Flash Utility. Flash instructions are also hosted in the link where the utility is. OC BIOS should be used after the unlocking of 16 pipes if your core/memory can handle the speeds for long time under load with 16 pipes (it means tests). Realto is bridge which bridges the native PCI-E core (R430 on your card) to the AGP.
