Radeon 9550 to 9600 Bios Mod

[amd]

i have a gecube 9550 ee with hynix memory rated at 2.5 nanoseconds. At default, it reads (from ati tool) a 9600 pro card.

I managed to overclock my card at 475 mhz(core clock), 320(640 mhz) without any artifacts, later i modded the bios with this default speed and works like a charm.

If you can manage to get one you'll not regret it

Anyone tried to flash 9600pro hynix gecube bios to Gigabyte 9550 128bit successful?

 

[ScHuLtZ]

Nope, mine won't flash damn it, it says the bios dosn't match the card, even though im forcing the flash, ill have to do more tinkering i think.

Why u wanna flash your cards?Just softmod it and OC it. If u want to have higher clocks in your bios than just dump your bios with atitool,edit clocks with RADEDIT,and flash back to your cards.

No problem mate. Im just telling you what can you do BEST for your card. flashing 9550 to 9600 has no sense to me.
Do this:
1. Run atitool and find MAX core (-10mhz) run about 3600 sec
2. Run atitool and find MAX mem (-10mhz) run about 3600 sec
3. Dump your bios with atitool
4. download RADEDIT from inet.
5. open your bios in RADEDIT.
6. Put your clocks in it (max clocks that you found - 10 mhz)
7. Flash your bios back to your card.
8. Enjoy your OC-ed 9550.

I found no difference in EX.
9550 128mb 128bit oc-ed to 450/240
9600 128mb 128bit oc-ed to 450/240

I tried 3dmark01se and 3dmark03.Difference is maybe 30 points.
In games i see no difference. Both run perfect.
my 2 cents.

Gigabyte and Asus-Cards are special because of their own PCB-layout.
Gigabyte allows only Gigabyte-Bios. Asus for example has own layout and special chips for asus-tools like "smartdoctor".
However - does anyone have a gecube 9550 Extreme-Bios for me?
Best regards

Sapphire r-9550 256mb DDR

I got the Sapphire r-9550 256mb DDR, I was wondering if anyone knows which bios I should use for the flash?

 

[ati.bob]

For those who are looking for suitable BIOS for you ATI 9550 or even other cards, refer to this section...

Find the manufacturer of your card (Sapphire/ATI/Asus/Gigabyte..) and make sure you select the correct RAM type for your card.. [The exact memory size and make sure it has the same memory bandwidth/configuration (***-bit)]. Also make sure you get the exact memory chip types/speeds (**-ns) because some card will not work with incorrect memory chip configuration..

Finally, MAKE SURE YOU CAN CLOCK YOUR CARD TO THAT SPECIFIC CARD SPEED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FLASH IT!!

Disclaimer: Do anything at your own risk!

Mod bios Gigabyte 9550D to 9600xt successful

Use this bios ( core/mem 405/255 ) flash by Gigabyte flash tool in include CD : 9550 --> 9600xt . You can re-edit core/mem to make you card into the best . ( after download bios Please change file type from .txt to .rom ) . Good luck .

 

[ati.bob]

batteryone.. please upload that file in ZIPped format.. this is because sometimes TXT files are transfered in ASCII format instead of the BIOS's binary format.. this will sometimes cause the file to be unusable..

What BIOS should I use if I want to flash my Sapphire R9550 128Mb?

 

[wazzledoozle]

If anyone knows about Mira branded memory, info would be greatly appreciated. I have come to the suspicion that Mira relables other manufacturer's chips

 

[Celeronfreak2000]

Wazzledoozle, Mira branded memory are actualy manufacture by PQI, a Taiwanese company.

I purchased Powecolor 9550 256MB, it uses MIRA chipset on it.

I was able to o/c 400/225.

What I did was backup my old bios and edit the bios changing the Device ID, oc my backup bios and reflash it.
