Ik heb zonet eens een HP80 op m'n 9500 gezet: core van 275mhz naar 375mhz and rising =D

-edit-

... nu al aan 400mhz core. wft?

Met extra fan? Indien ja, welke, en hoe snel draait hij? Blijft heatsink koel?

/edit: WOW JMke going :mad: , quick moving action going on

Hoger dan 405mhz crashed ie.

er staan 2 120 mm's op te blazen, en er zit een homemade koperen plaatje tss om niet tegen de shim te komen.

Nu geen tijd om verder te benchen, moet facbar gaan openen. :)

400Mhz Core op nen R9500??

WTF ?

:super: card you got there

holy fok :)

mooie occ imo ;)


(had gezegd da et een goei dingske was eh :D )

holy cow!!
well, since i just sold my old ram, i'm ordering one too.

Does anyone know how to overclock beyond powerstrip's limits? The highest I can set is 368mhz, which seems to be rockstable (played UT2K3 for an hour without problems).

Rivatuner let me go higher, but as i said before, it's pretty buggy. If i overclock with rivatuner beyond 300mhz, the performance is crap. It does let me set it to 405mhz until it crashed though. :)

Finetuning with rivatuner brought me up to 373mhz rock stable, i just spend an hour playing UT 2K3 with it.


UT 2K3 1280*1024 @ 4*AA + 16*FA + all detail highest = *drool* :super:

I think rivatuner & powerstrip use different approaches on overclocking the Radeon

while rivatuner uses software I think, it lowers the timings, so you can reach higher speeds, while powerstrip has access directly to the bios & ups the speed while maintaining the very strict timings

this way, or around, not sure which one does what, I'm sure you are resourcefull enough to find the definitive answer :grin:

damnit LOVENO is aan een nieuwe reeks GRAKA 9500 begonnen
die gaan natuurlijk ni zo goed zijn als die van RIchBastard

merde k had juist den t geld bijeen om hem te kopen

I know, i found an excellent guide made by pilsy yesterday @xtreme explaining the differences between software overclocken (riva) and hardware (pstrip).

To reach 375mhz i have to overclock to 368mhz (pstrip max), and overclock with riva a few more mhz. :)

@Tpower: i still see the connect3D 9500 128mb for sale...?

cool I wuss right then ;)
got any 3DMarkRun @ 375Mhz?

what is the stock speed of a R9500 again? ;)


375 = corespeed I presume.. how high does the memory go?



I think a new batch of those :)

:ws:
thats what I call a :super: card...

These drivers don't like 3Dmark...

Low quality driver settings (no AA or FA):
stock speed: 275mhz
360mhz core: ok
368mhz core: fail

High Quality settings (4x AA & 16x FA):
360mhz: ok
368mhz: ok
375mhz: ok (can play UT 2K3 100mhz above stock for hours!)
>375mhz: fail

low quality @ 360/315mhz: 16200 3D marks

highq @ 375/315: 11500 (4x AA & 16x AF!)


memory is 3.6ns: stock 270mhz, theoretical max 275mhz. Max w/o artifacts: 315mhz (9700 pro: 310)

Yep hij staat er nog
maar ik heb mail van Wim zelf gekregen
dat er een heel nieuwe lading kaarten moet binnenkomen over een 10tal dagen

Die kaarten kunnen volledig anders zijn : een nieuwe revisie
misschien omgevormd reeds in het nieuwe 9500 noPRO model.

I am afraid to buy again.

ai caramba, this is with cheap aircooling! :o

ka-tsjing!

don't come too close or I'll have to spank ya with a 4 ghz p4.
:)
still 600+ points to go :)

If i still had my corsair you would have been chasing me already. :^)

well, that's not true, I can't imagine you getting more points out of that 2400+ allready at 2500 mhz...
and async gets you no points at all

I just hope barton clocks, coz I'm gona get my prometeia bak online in time for barton...

I'm running at 192Mhz FSB with mediocre timings (6-3-3 CL2), with my ex-corsair sticks i could run up to 225mhz 5-2-2 CL2! That should give me at least 600-700 points.

Vidcard isn't maxed out either, 368mhz is the max powerstrip can set. :^)

well, come and get me I might say :)
just don't break anything.

In the meantime, I have some Unreal 2 : the awakening to play at 1280*1024 and 4*aa, 16*af :)

Unreal 2 is already for sale? Cool!

I didn't push it to the max nor voided warranty. I'm not going to break stuff to get 500 more 3D marks...

-edit-
unreal 2 is nog niet uit, warez-hippie :p

I'm waiting for it... some pêople have it, gorgh is gonna copy one for me as swift as possible

:rod:

;)

do you have it, master Teus?

That's one :mad: overclock...
congratz!!! :super:

What mod's did you use??

- The oc'bios..
- The 9500->9700 mod...(software-wise)
- ???

I need a new vid-card :(

- open window and let it freeze :D

:ws: :banana:

a mate has it, but hasn't replied yet

with a little luck I'll be playin' it 2 morrow :o

@RichyB wanna swap ram?

I still got a PC3200 Corsair that is going to waste running @170 relaxed timings here :)

Just 'swapping' sounds a bit unfair.

Wait a couple weeks till i can pay you for it. :)

wasnt planning on giving it for free you know ;)
