I have GeCube R9550 XT with 398.25/249.5 as default :) . When I used ATI Tool v.020 it read just correct also in radlinker, but problem occur when i installed atitool v.023. It read 300.9/176.5 as the default but not in radlinker and PC Wizard 2005 they both recognize the card clocks very well. Any info?
One more question I have MSI RX9550 TD128 (only cooper heatsink with no fan) with samsung chips (5.0ns if i'm not wrong), can I flash the bios with 9600 pro? anyone ever tried it? :rolleyes:

is it okay to flash the rx9550 bios with 9600 pro (there is no 9600 non pro for msi)?
what about the temp? am i have to change the heatsink? fyi, it arround 49-55'C when i'm OCed it similar to 9600NP (i figured it out by comparing the processor hsf and the vga sink by hand) theres no problem with the memory since i put a ramsink on the upper side. when i touched the ramsink it's a lil hot but not the ram on the other side (the ram putted doble sided with same positions), only the ramsinks lil hot.

i dunno if this has to do with this issue, i have a PowerColor R9550 256Mb/128Bits 250core/200mem with Samsung 5n Mems, using ATITool 0.23/0.22 :
ATITool v0.0.23 started.
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Detected GPU Chip: 0x0 (0), 4 Pipelines, 3840 MB
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Temperature monitoring: not supported
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Could not locate ATI BIOS - assuming 27.000 Mhz Ref. clock

If try Find Max Core or Mem got a message saying somthing like "images doesn't match" and it hangs.

ATITool v0.0.22 started.
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Detected GPU Chip: 0x0 (0), 8 Pipelines, 3840 MB
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Temperature monitoring: not supported
2005-05-15 12:49:02 Could not locate ATI BIOS - assuming 27.000 Mhz Ref. clock

with this version it would run smooth the Find Max tests.

What could be wrong i've tried Catalyst Originals, Omegadrivers and softmod (all 5.4) and got the same results, or i need to flash the bios before?

Thanks in advance.

ozz: settings -> overclocking -> video card drop down .. select the 9550 in there ..

:eek: shame on me .... sry... thanks a lot W1zz. :D
If is not much asking for another advice... would you recomend to flash it for getting the 9600 mod?
i've been looking for a BIOS that somehow matches the actual memory (256Mb Samsung 5n) but only 128Mb BIOS ara available, if i flash it with one of those it would keep the 256Mb? :confused:

Thanks a lot again

a 128mb bios on a 256mb card will either not work or give you 128mb

I have the Powercolor 9550 with 256 MB Samsung 5.0 ns RAM as well. I do not get the errors you are describing with ATITool 0.0.23. Here is what my logfile says:

2003-01-01 03:17:05 ATITool v0.0.23 started.
2003-01-01 03:17:05 Detected GPU Chip: RV350 (4153), 4 Pipelines, 256 MB
2003-01-01 03:17:05 Temperature monitoring: not supported
2003-01-01 03:17:11 Profile 'Rajendra' loaded. Clocks set to: 415.38 / 224.31

No problems there at all.

Hey, I'm currently using the 0.24 beta 10, and it seems this bug isn't in the new beta verson, but whenever I used 0.23 it dedects my x850xt as if it only has 8 pipelines, everything else (and the 0.24 beta 10) reads it as 16 pipelines so I know its not my card thats broken, just thought I'd like to mention it if anyone else has a x850xt and reads that atitool only detects 8 pipelines not to worry, all your pipelines are there.
