    X800 GTO² to X850 XT BIOS Mod

    Two 80mm fans? That sounds like noisy overkill to me. I am using one super-quiet panaflo 80mm blowing over the stocker and no probs at 600/600.

    X800 GTO² to X850 XT BIOS Mod

    @Dynamic Thxs for help w/ fan control. That got me over 600mhz on core w/ 100% fan speed. It even idles at 42c but hella LOUD. @DanishDevil U sold me on the Zalman vf-700-Cu. Sounds like a quality product and u got good results w/ it. Gonna grab a zalman soon. @both Rubber bands rox...

    X800 GTO² to X850 XT BIOS Mod

    How do I set it to 100% in atitool? I am using 0.24, not the beta. Can I set 100% only above certain temp, say 70c. Will not tolerate any noise at idle. Won't an aftermarket cooler void my warranty? J/K I gonna try the el cheapo route w/ some AS5, old heatsinks and a few rubber bands...

    Combination Connect 3D X800GTO@XT and AsRock Dual-Sata II = Freezes?! What to do?

    Sorry about broken link. I meant to use W1zzard's modded bios and just raise the clocks with atitool. Looks like you have. Maybe a problem w/ the ULI mobo. Maybe they can return the AsRock in for a nforce4 mobo? Good luck

    Combination Connect 3D X800GTO@XT and AsRock Dual-Sata II = Freezes?! What to do?

    Are they using the Powercolor x800xt bios? Most XT bios are 1.6 ram and they need a 2.0 ns ram bios. I used this bios and it worked nicely but don't have a AsRock mobo. Maybe flash C3d GTO to this bios: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/127/images/Sapphire.X800GTO.Samsung20.bin If...

    If you cant get GTO2, try c3d x800gto

    You know bone stock, no bolt-ons just tweaks. No intake exhaust downpipe etc.. Maybe a boost controller err a w1zzard bios flash. Its *bone stock* in my book LOL.

    Actually agp x800pros vivos have 16pipes. C3d X800GTOs also have 16pipes. Most x800pros only got 12pipes, but some have 16pipes just waiting for a flash ;)

    I guess it says x800pro because I didn't use the powercolor x800xt bios like most. I used W1zzard's bios from his article and then atitool to raise clocks. Not sure if either bios would make a difference, but I am sticking w/ w1zzard's bios till I hear different.

    connect3d gto is modeable?

    I am running a 4000+ clawhammer, MSI neo4-f refurbed, 2x512 fatwallet cheapo ram, Thermaltake silent purepower 420w cheap PS in a generic antec case. Its a low ball system. I would think your 480ps would do the trick. I think the r480 gave some performance away to increase clock speeds...

    connect3d gto is modeable?

    I got my c3d GTO card over 7000 3dmarks stock cooling. No artifacts and it'll clock higher. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1343665 I think the c3d GTOs are faster clock for clock than GTO2s. They may not clock as high, but they seem more efficient.

    connect3d gto is modeable?

    The GTO2 WAS a great value and those that got it in did well. As it stands today, the GTO2 is not a good value and the C3d GTO is where its at. A GTO2 for $259 versus a C3d GTO at $188 is no contest. The C3d is 38% cheaper at least and only 10% slower at worst. Neither card is worth...

    connect3d gto is modeable?

    I got a Connect3d X800GTO from newegg 2 days ago. I flashed it w/ w1zzard's 16pipe bios and got to 6k 3dmarks. I then overclocked it to 575 core / 560memory. It seems to max around 580-590 core and 560-570 memory. 2.0ns Samsung memory faster than I thought. I am using stock cooling and only...
