Get your X1950Pro modded BIOS here

[dashsmashed]

Ok, time to simplify things. I'm getting FAR too many requests for personalised BIOS' for peoples cards, and it just cant happen anymore I don't have enough time. So heres whats going to happen instead, I'm going to make a list of card makers, people with a X1950Pro from that manufacturer feel free to submit your BIOS so I can do a universal modded BIOS for that manufacturer, but thats it. No more personal customisation requests.

The list:

Palit X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
Xpertvision X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
Club3D X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
Connect3D X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
Sapphire X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
HIS X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
Powercolor X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS
ATi X1950GT \ Pro 256MB \ 512MB BIOS

A version of PCI-E and AGP for the above will be available based on what BIOS' people upload. Also, remember to tell me if the BIOS is AGP or PCI-E

Sapphire 1950Pro 512MB AGP

I need like 1.5 core volts, but I'll live if not lol I have the same card as Al. I'm sure they're the same, my BIOS is dated 11-13-06

Explanation: Ok with low level oc'ing i can get the gpu to oc but then run into stability issues, and when I oc the memory of any increment i get system lock up. When i keep the poller runing and set it to driver level and then move a slider up any increment and click apply the sliders automatically go back to default.

are you using the latest beta ati tray tools? the sliders did that to me before i updated ati tray tools.

 

[Formula350]

Me too, but I had CCC installed as well. So I can't say if it's the new beta or not. I also ran into that lock up problem.

 

[Formula350]

No 2 cards are alike. I have the same HSF setup you guys have and I could only get 648 and thats with more voltage.

 

[SpookyWillow]

nah nothing unusual about my card, its using its original bios with no voltmods either.
like formula said, no cards are alike. this time i got lucky and got a half decent card lol.
highest benching clocks so far are 675 / 817, just need a volt mod but i'm starting to think other components on the card will give out before the extra voltage helps much as they get quite toasty.

Here's a HIS x1950pro 256MB PCI-e bios.

 

[Formula350]

heh I should flash mine with the HIS. Then I could use their software again! Only difference then is the PCB!

 

[Alcpone]

648/817 benchable clocks

If the cpu clock is lower the mem will go to 830 and run happily for some reason?

 

[Formula350]

More stable voltage for the memory to have?

Heh I loaded up a HEX editor for fun, and then loaded up the Memory Timed and Non-Timed BIOSes in the "compare" funtion. I have NO idea how he does that haha I don't know how to translate squares lol

 

[Formula350]

Sup fellas I almost forgot about this. I have a hacked ATI Tool executable file that allows us to change the timings. All you have to do is install ATI Tool 0.26, then delete the .exe file in the Program Files\ATITool
folder, the unRAR the cracked.exe file there.
Timings are under the memory button below the memory clock slider.
Don't attempt to OC core or memory, or you will get a locked PC!
Let me know if the link is dead, I'll upload again.
Also, post any of your findings. Here are the optimized timings that an ASUS user found to produce higher performance:
Here it is, had to upload it again :\

Just figured I'd make a note that my timings on my Sapphire are already a lot better than what that ASUS has for Default heh. I'd say about 1/2 are his "Optimal". I'm currious as to which one is like system ram's CAS. I should tighten them a little more since I can hit 864 with mine almost like those Optimal

Here's my XperVision x1950pro Super 512MB PCI-e bios.

all the x1950 cards have different timings, the his cards are far more relaxed and they cant get anywhere near those timings. the MEM_TCL is the cas latency

heres my stock timings and the ones i'm testings, i know there bench stable.

-----------------my default --------testing

REFRESH RATE -----ox49 ------------0x4E

MEM_TRCDW -------8 ----------------6

MEM_TRCWA -------8 ----------------6

MEM_TRCDR --------12 ---------------9

MEM_TRCDRA -------12 ---------------9

MEM_TRRD ----------10 --------------8

MEM_TRC -----------35 --------------30

MEM_TNOPW --------0 ---------------0

MEM_TNOPR ---------0--------------- 0

MEM_TR2W ----------15 --------------15

MEM_TR2R -----------6 ---------------6

MEM_TW2R ----------12 --------------12

MEM_TCL ------------13 --------------11

MEM_TRP_WRA -------27 --------------25

MEM_TRP_RDA -------21 ---------------17

MEM_TRP ------------10 ---------------9

MEM_TRFC -----------45 ---------------45

MEM_TCKE -----------8 ----------------7



changing any of these ones result in instant artifacts or lockups for me,

MEM_TR2W ----------15 --------------15

MEM_TR2R -----------6 ---------------6

MEM_TW2R ----------12 --------------12

I'll get around to starting the BIOS' when I can, currently I'm trying to sort piss poor memory tmings with my Xpertvision, their unoptimised, unbalanced, and unstable. I have a working alpha that was stable with ATItool artifact scanner for around 4.5hrs, then my monitor display went green.. so I'm guessing either my memory crapped out on its settings of 776 or the timings arent quite perfected yet. Trying to find settings to get 900MHz as I have 1.1ns memory, so it might be a few days.

 

[Ketxxx]

can anyone get a good translation on this?

 

[Alcpone]

can anyone get a good translation on this?

I had alook here, but they dont seem to match http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_numerals im assuming 1 - 10 will be most likely used?

 

[Ketxxx]

Damn the chinese\japanese, why cant they write normal like everyone else? :\

lol, i didnt think it might be japanese, d'oh! Might even be korean, maybe it holds the launch sequence to the nukes!

 

[Ketxxx]

lol no its not the latter of that lot bloody impossible translating that screen.

 

[KOMA]

i changed my timings with ati tool but after restart they are like before, although i save it in my profile

what i have to do?

We will be waiting for u.

in the settings tab theres a startup page, just set the profile in there.

 

[KOMA]

i did it but nothing had changed

Hi, i've a Peak X1950PRO 256MB with no fan control and temperature monitoring.
I tried to flash the bios of formula350 but atiflash don't work neither forced. It can't erase the memory flash of the videocard. Tried to flash my own bios but reports the same error. Flash locked?
Here the bios of the card equipped with Samsung 1,4ns memory. GPU/MEM frequency standard.

 

[SpookyWillow]

i did it but nothing had changed

not sure then, i just tried and it never worked either.
