I'd like to go with one Vipers TEC setups ... :rockout:

intel igent · Nov 5, 2005

would be nice to have the cash to have ViperJohn mod my card, perhaps sooner than later

if running a tec like that on the gpu, would a separate psu be neccessary?

thnx

Yes...the TEC can pull well in excess of 20 amps all by itself and is powered by it's own MeanWell PS.

insulated on the other side Viper?

thnx

would a 300w model suffice?

Hello,
I don't have pics YET! What vmod article for my BBA x850 PRO AGP??

Back side of the card ... does the TEC require any kind of insulation for condensation?

Yes there is foam on the back of the card.

"This article is based on the previous voltmod article for the Radeon X800 Pro, X800 Pro VIVO, X800XT and X800XT PE AGP line and has been adapted to apply to the Radeon X800 Non-Pro, X800 XL and X850 PCI-Express line using PCB #A474."

This seems to specify PCI-Express for the x850, are the mods the same for an AGP card?

Sorry for the crappy pics, try to make some better laters!

I just thought I better point this out, you havent plugged in two of the power supplies that the motherboard needs. There is a molex to the right of one of the pictures, and a floppy power supply to the left. I also forgot these when I got my ultra-d and so did my mate hwo bought the same board as me :laugh:

Sorry for being a bit of a noob.

But I presume volt modding is used to get higher stable clocks from your GFX cards? Like overclocking a CPU, although that easier to do obviously.

Will it reduce the chance of artifacts aswell?

Is there a program that tell me what voltages my card is currently running at?

Evil that is correct ... no software that I'm aware of that will tell you your voltages

EvilFranky · Nov 17, 2005

Thanks for the reply Urlyin.

Just have to find someone local who can do it for me!

If you want your Vmods to be effective you need much better GPU amd memory cooling t go with them.

Finding the max clean OC's on a GRX card is harder and much more time consuming than OC'ing a CPU. The latter is a cake walk in comparison.

EvilFranky · Nov 17, 2005

Yeah well i've just installed a Zalman VGA cooler and memory sinks and the card runs MUCH MUCH cooler than before.

Hi m8s!
First of all, sorry for my poor english, i'm spanish and i can't write english as well as i want.
Let's go:

I'm new here and I want to ask you some questions, i'm going to Vmod my Sapphire X850XT and i need to know if your article can be used with my card too, and what speeds could i get if i mod it.
Now i have the card with stock cooler (waiting my WC kit) and i have it flashed to PE, and it goes well, but i need more and more!!! What speeds could i get aprox without vmod? When i pass from 570 on core speed, with 590 on mems, my system hangs up, is it normal?

Help me plz!!! Thx guys!

EDIT: I don't know if i posted in wrong place, if yes, sorry.

Urlyin · Dec 10, 2005

Dimoniet ... read the first page in this thread here... tons of info throughout the thread ... that's normal for it to lock if you go to high on the oc

Dimoniet · Dec 10, 2005

Thx! I'll read all the thread and if i had questions, i'll ask them there

Thx again!

Here is my old Sapphire X850XT Platinum:

The stock cooler is used to hide few things...

With the special mods the card can run 3DMark05 at 750MHz (gpu) and 675MHz (memory) with tight latencies. Thats just aircooling...
