Sapphire X1800GTO2 512MB

PooPoo · Jun 27, 2006

Guys,

Have you guys heard anything about the Sapphire X1800GTO2 512MB? It has 16p with 1.2ns GDDR3 memory and running @ 500/1000

sleepeeg3 · Jun 28, 2006

So it's an X1800XT that didn't make the cut?

POGE · Jun 28, 2006

If it has 1.2ns GDDR3, 512mb of ram and 16 pipes at stock it should flash to x1800xt no problems...

PooPoo · Jun 28, 2006

Yes, the review from the computer mag tested which could run in XT speed. It should be selling for around $260... which is a sweet price for 1800XT

It's worth to upgrade from X800GTO2 @ 850XT speed? Heard DirectX 10.0 is coming soon, should I wait for the new cards or forget about video card and upgrade to AM2 platform instread?

Hehe, you might be rite. I should wait for DirectX 10... Actually I did experience same lags when I played HL: Lost Coast & Fear running @ 1024*768 w/ no AA turned on... I concentrating WOW now... did get some lag from flight plans, but I bet there is something to do with the server lag also... plus I notice the graphic isn't as sharp as my friend's GF 6800GS... I wonder why?

to be honest my x800gto, now an x800xt plays HL2: Lost Coast and Fear on 1280by 1024 with no lag. u should do a defrag and run spybot or ad-aware, also waht kind of proc do u have? and in regards to ur friends being "sharper", it all comes down to a matter of opinion between nvidia vs. ati image quality. i prefer ati, but u may prefer nvidia. in the future i would suggest an nvidia card for u then, as u find their image quality better. good luck and happy gaming

i am always an ati fan since my 1st 8500. i love ati..i have a64 939 3200+ @ 2.5ghz.. 1gb ram... etc. i do maintain my pc pretty well, so i guess i really have to check my settings.. which driver do you use?

My X800GTO2 lags hugely in Oblivion, I bet a X1800GTO2 will be the solution for that game.

EDIT: X1800GTO2 available in stores 219 euros, but says GDDR2???

_33 · Jul 2, 2006

How about this!

From the specs, it seems to be the same as the Radeon X1800XL.

warup89 · Jul 2, 2006

i bought a x1800xl 512mb (which i think is the same as the x1800GTO2) and i flashed it to XT PE with no probs, and my current clocks are 700/800

349$ CA

Flashed BIOS with one of the X1800XT = 9370 3Dmark05 instead of 7787

x1800GTO2 modded bios

Say, can anyone tell me where to find these modded bios'? I'm looking far and wide for a bios to upgrade my Sapphire x1800GTO2 to a x1800XT. Voltage and clocks would be helpful also after modding the card. THANKS!!! :nutkick:

I'm in the same boat as him. I have a x1800gto2, I would like it very much if someone would be kind enough to point out the right steps.

I love Sapphire and their gto2 series. :rockout:

Sound Card... After I downloaded the ATI Tool (ATITool_0.25b14), I discovered my card was already unlocked with all 16 pipelines enabled! Download this tool... click Settings, change Use Device dropdown to: 0x7109: R520, Bus: 1,Dev:0 then scroll down and it will display your Active Pipelines. Maybe yours is already unlocked too? Bought mine (Sapphire X1800GTO2 512mb) from Newegg about 2 weeks ago. Once you have it unlocked, check this info that was provided to me earlier:

Ok, at 1.42V (WITH PROPER COOLING!) I can almost run at 700/750 no problem. Its the heat I'm worry about. Currently I have it set to 675/700 and its running fine. Max temps at 700/750 were 90C! My max temps at 675/700 are in the low 70's, which i feel more comfortable with.

Personally I am being a chicken right now and only running 550/600 with Voltages of: 1.250 for VGPU (graphics core) and 2.113 (memory core) for MVDDC. If anyone has some Awesome Core and Memory clocks they would like to share while running the stock cooler, that would be cool! :rockout:

Hope this helps.

I think ATI graphics are better than Nvidia...

YES!!!! I know the card is unlocked already, but I thought swapping the bios for xt would be eaiser than oc'ing and messing the voltage. O well. I will have to go out and get me a Accelero X2. :rockout:

then start OC'ing like a mad man.

X1800GTO2 BIOS Flash to X1800XT Here

Anyone who wants the bios for Sapphire X1800GTO2 -> X1800XT Post a reply! It defaults to 600/700 clocks. The bios just doesnt show fan settings, and I assume they are 100% now.

kadinho · Aug 19, 2006

Leprechan · Aug 20, 2006

I would like to have the bios.

mestizo · Aug 24, 2006

hey I have been reading these threads about flashing an x1800gto2 to an xt or and xt pe. I tried this tonight but didnt get the results i was looking for. When I flashed the xt bios i couldnt get into the CCC anymore, but I was able to run 3dmark06 with no problems. Next I went to the xt pe bios and was able to get into CCC but I couldnt make it thru 3dmark. Now I flashed my card back to it's stock gto2 bios so that I would be able to run both CCC and 3dmark. Anyone else have issues with flashing their card like i did? The bios files I used were from here in the ati bios section, and I followed the how to guide from here as well. Any help would be great! thanks
