xtreme solder job!
 

I found the chip that i fried on my dead 8rda+.

I dunno how i did it, but i succesfully replaced the broken one! 8 tiny little legs and they all seem to work. Hooray for madness! :super:

I think i broke the AGP port by frying the little bastard (killed my ti4200), but the PCI ports work fine. I did a quick Vdd mod (you'd think I'd learn out of my mistakes, no?) while my soldering iron was hot: 1.8vdd, should be gould enough for ~215mhz stable.

The bios had gone bad too, but i managed to flash it in my new 8rda+.

Currently stressing the board at 11*200. Joy! Joy! :feesten:

Together with a loud aircooler & my second XP1800+ JIUHB i have an excellent backup rig. A shame the AGP port may be dead... I've got a Matrox Millenium PCI card, but it doesn't support 1280*1024 @32bit (only 8bit)... what's the best PCI card one can get nowadays? GF4 MX440?

wow!

na thats :mad:

go any more pics? those are compeletly :mad: skillz

skillz? Might just be luck in my case. :D

nice & messy setup (Q tec sil680 controller roxors!):

soldered chip (left) and voltmodded vdd controller (right):

Does anyone know whether the Sapphire ATI 7000 32mb DDR PCI is a decent (pci) videocard? TV-out is important, and ATI has a good rep...

It's 'only' 60 eur @forcom.

change sig Richy...

amazing job you did there

wow. great job dewd. Too bad the AGP port is broken.

KS1@xtreme suggested to try an 8x AGP card, because it uses a different voltage than the 4x (r8500) i tried.

Guess what, it works. I'm one happy camper. :D

spoken about luck :super:

omG very well done! those legs are a lot smarter than those of your regular v-mod right?

respect!

Kad daarstraks bijna hetzelfde voor ... ik koop mij slk-900 en 92mm enermax zet cooler op mobo ( kostte mij 2u:gay:) en fan erop zet aan kijk in bios voot temps alles ok.. begint da daar vreselijk te stinke ... was er zo ne kleine mosfet zijn eige aan los soldere op men bord :grin: bleek dus dada kwam door die enermax op mobo te plugge:king: mja nu alles trug fine:super:

Ma enkel ... keb mij 2 lattekes twinmos pc3200 gekocht en volges richyb oc'en die goe ...:grum: ik steek ze erin timings op strak cas 2 .. pc boot nie... memory draaide maar op 180 mhz ofzo:rolleyes: zelfs op 2.5 2-5-2 is et nie stable op 195 mhz na ffe memory tests bleuscreen

idd, twinmoss does 195 Mhz stable at most agressive tilming 2.92 Vddr. 197 fsb works also @ the same timings, but not 100% stable

Over 200 fsb is piece of cake, but only with relaxed timings.

ja so ik op 2.8 vddr op 195mhz instabiel op cas 2.5 mee matige timings .. alles 2-5-2 ma tde rest gelijk bank interleave en 1t cmd enzo nog opt traagste ..

wierd..

heb je ram ingesteld op 266 ?

Anders neemt je moederbord bv 166 + je overclokte, en komt ram flink boven de 20 uit...

snapte ?

volgens pilsy@xtreme doen die latjes nochthans 220+ :s

They're running @ host clock:rolleyes:but it's weird that a nameless sticky pc2700 also 200 fsb did @ the same mobo @ weak timings... this sticky twinmoss also but if i tighten the timings i get bleuscreens while windows is loading...

Zo beter Jmke??:grin:

please reply in the language the thread was started in :)

hehe i repaired my p2 slotcpu once
i'll show the pics later on :)

whoa, nice soldering skills ya got there m8 (they're still no match for mine though ;))

we want proof! ;)

Twinmoss uses 2 kinds of chips: M-tec (not tooo good) Winbond (good)
yours are probebly M-tec

btw, what is the highest vddr you may use with an 8RDA+??

nice!

I've got a broken Epox 8KHA+ down here.. Want to make it your next victim? :D

what's wrong with it ?

excellent :ws: thnkx for the effort!

Yoou haven't seen my soldering skillz yet. I'm going to borrow a digicam this afternoon, to get pics.

It's very nicely done, never seen some such precise. Secret will be revealed this afternoon.

you can all come droole over my new case @ M², phear my 1337 wiring+soldering skillz ;p

http://users.pandora.be/manson/pcnew/ (work in progress)

nicely done!
too bad you don't know much about compression & cropping :)

hey hey, Work In Progress dude

I mean the pics man :)

dunno, doesn't boot..

I think there's something wrong with the memory controller or something.. (error code: "Cx" where x is usually 0 or 1)

so do I ;), will resize and place em in a lill' site tonight

kweetnie of het hier al staat ;)
maar ondertussen is er ook al een R9000 PCI op de markt, stond dervan versteld, maar kheb da hier onlangs in ne makro pc binnegekregen :|
nog pretty decent performance (HL) voor op een celeron 1300

HalfLife draait ook vlot op mijn Voodoo 2 & P200 MMX...

talkin' about CS actually ;)
U'd be surprised what you need to run that at a decent & constant framerate ;)

Poitke, is dat lijm of gesoldeerd?

Indien gesoldeerd: koop u een 20W soldeerdbout, want je chip is blijkbaar half gesmolten van de hitte! :s

A voodoo 1 4mb :^D

it's based on a game engine from.. yes indeed 1995 !

hehe, you found out, t'is geplakt met secondelijm, vandaar die precies gemolten waas. Dampen van secondelijm.

Dude, where'd you find that chip you fried? Sadly, I also killed my heavily modded 8RDA+ by trying the 5v mod by hand-contacting a 5v line to the mosfet which killed a mosfet crippling my mobo. It still ran at stock vcore, but no higher. Thinking it couldve been the PSU, I tried another cheap 250w PSU and it fried my mobo. The little chip above the vdd controller chip fried. I thought I could do what you did - replace the chip but I had no clue where I would find it. Anyway, are you sure you killed your vidcard by frying the mobo?? What'd you do to fry your mobo? I had a GF4 4600 and 2x Mushkin pc3500 RAM in my mobo I hope to god I didnt damage them! :( The only noticable damage I could find is that little chip.
