2900 bios clock tool

First benchmark in. I tried one lone card (no crossfire)

Card at Default specs: 3dmark score of 8246
Card Overclocked GPU @ 900 3d ram @ 1200: 3d mark score of 8231

yeah.... I don't know either, but it didn't work. I'm gunna go back and try and figure out what happened.

Edit: Voltage was at 1.35
Sounds like a heat problem. Can you get 900 with a lower voltage?

I can try! :)

But I really dont think the bios flashed correctly. All of the info fields were blank after the flash. I'll mess around with it a bit more if I have time today. Wont be doing much since its Thanksgiving here in the states.

Speaking of... Happy Thanksgiving! :toast:

OK here is what I get when I flash:

C:\atiflash -p 0 -newbios 125vbios.rom -f (the command is entered)
Old DeviceID: 9400
New DeviceID: 0
Old Product Name:
New Product Name:
Old Bios Version:
New Bios Version:
Flash type: M25p10
10000/10000h bytes programmed
10000/10000h bytes verified

Restart System To Complete VBIOS Update



So... did it work? I see a lot of blanks and a 0 for new device ID.

Edit: I really dont think my bios is flashing. No matter what I clock the bios to the performance stays pretty much the same.

EDIT2: It DID flash. And I think I may have found my problem with the benchmark score.

hello..what is the different if i use "atiflash -p 0 xxxxbios.rom -f" with "atiflash -p 0 -newbios xxxxbios.rom -f"?? one with "-newbios" and otherone without "-newbios"??before this im not sing the "-newbios" command..
 
how to change volt on 2d for Lower consumption

How can I change voltage on 2d to lower consumption ?

i can set the 3d voltage on quantumforce2900 bios editor but not 2s volt ??


Someone has a bios for 2d down clocked in voltage/freq. and standar 3d

thanks :banghead:
 

vere cool guys :)

only two think would be to to.

there should be a choice to edit the vid in 2d clock from 0,7v to about 1,0v in 0,125 units
and the should be a choice to edit the vid of the memory

i have got flashed a few days ago the foxcon bios with 880/950 and run it on my q6600 @ 4 ghz und these 2 x 2900xt @ crossfire and i got nice one 21117 3d Mark 06 Points

recommended voltage for stock cooling?? 1.25v?? 1.35 possible?

With a 2900XT 1gb I have GPU running at 900MHz and Memory running at 1100 MHZ. Voltage is at 1.25v and it is runnnig stable. This is with water cooling though though from what I hear of the stock cooler you should be able to do 1.25v.

Edit: It also runs stable at 1.20 though it droped my 3dmark score by a couple of points.

i have problem here...after flash with modified bios...no display on monitor during boot...but after reach logon screen...it appear...any suggestion?
 
anyone...help...plzz

So you cant see your post screen, but you can see when windows boots?
 
yes...but if i flash to the original bios...it works fine...
 
hi,

can you ask him to build in, that we can control the 2D Voltage?

try your monitor on the other dvi port on the back of video card
 
To anyone who is messing with these cards... how hot is your VRAM? Even small adjustments are bringing mine up to 100c! (And sometimes past that...)
 
I got a 3dmark score of 17464 with 900 MHz core and 1100 MHZ Ram.
However!!! My temps are through the roof! VRAM on card #2 touched 100 degrees Celsius... with watercooling. Which makes me question my waterblock. I'm gunna take a look at it now.

Back to the main theme of the post though, the bios editor works like a charm. :)

EDIT: I've never used these video cards with their stock heatsinks. (This box was built last week) Anyone tell what kind of temps they are getting with the stock cooler?
 
You need a cheap pci video card/2ed PCI-E card or do a blind flash back.

im already flashed it back to the original bios...blindly...luckily i memorize the bios step...2x downward enter, 2x downward enter, 3x down "+" 3x..and successfully make usb drive as 1st priority..
 
no. how unlucky i am..


That is weird. Someone suggested changing the cable around. Have you tried that yet? It doesn't really make much sense to me. If you are only changing 3d clocks it shouldn't mess with your post or bios screens.

What ever you are doing to your bios your monitor isn't liking it. Maybe try messing with some monitor settings?

Also, are you just modifying a copy of your original bios or are you using a downloaded one?
