Radeon X800 SE and the plan... - 2005/08/17 03:41
Okay after reading a lot of threads in different forums about this question so forth but here my plan to flash and unlock the pipelines for the Sapphire X800 SE GDDR3 256-bit graphics card.
Diagnosis
1. No lasercut on the GPU
2. R420 GPU
3. 256MB DDR2 Memory
4. Voltage not too sure (I think the AGP is 0.8v)
Proposed Plan
1. Use ATITool to determine the max core/mem frequencies
2. Use RaBiT to alter existing max core/mem frequencies
3. Flash the BIOS to a X800 XT with those altered frequencies
4. Check with ATITool that it has been flashed correctly and monitor
This is just the generally outline of it. The only problems I have is that I am confused with voltage increasing (pencil mod?) and how to actually unlock the pipelines. By me flashing the X800 SE BIOS that should unlock the pipes right?!? Also apparently this can be done with RivaTuner but I cannot find enough information about this.
Also any recommendations on any good coolers would be awesome. I'm already thinking of heatsinks for the ram but I need a decent VGA cooler on it to get it to the core speeds of the the X800 XT. Can anyone point out any flaws that they might be able to see.
