Hi,
Would be gratefull of alittle info if possible.
My xfx generic 4870 @750/900 has the same 1.26 volts in 3d and 2d, now i would'nt want to change things that i know nothing about untill i know something about it. I was wondering can i drop the volts in 2d mode down to which setting?
Now i have used rbe to flash 850/1150 stable ( not crashed in 2 days of gaming ) with my generic xfx4870 so i'm very happy considering it cost less than my old asus top 4850 and is overclocked to 4890 speeds woooooooooooooo:toast:

Nice clocks there mate! At stocks volts that's impressive!

Well, it's probably not going to work because you still need to access voltage registers anyway but go ahead and try, there should be no problems.

Thanks Zion, i will try soon and post the outcome.
I thought it was stuck at that voltage but it was the options rbe gave me that threw me out alittle.

OK, you'll probably have to manually measure voltages with a DMM.

I don't think you'll be able to use software for that.
