Today i get my Christmas Gift :

;)

Before:



After:






Memory are swaped from Asus V7100 pro, and are 4 ns memories - that means 250 Mhz !

Many thanks to Rolo for providing me the needed cards !

The cooler form the cards must be maybe changed, i'm thinking of using some cooper coollers, witch are far bettter.
Testing and of course hard overclocking will start soon.
Because is the winter Time, i will take full advantage of the natural cooling by opening the window. ;D
A voltmod is also planned, in order to bring the card to the maximum !



Look at the Bandwith and Fillrate values ;)

That's the 3DMark2001 result at 200MHz.




CPU work @2075MHz, and 1 GHz RAM.
( i have to overclock the CPU to 2.5Ghz ')
I have to flash the card with the Rainbow Bios.
Something wierd:
If i start the windows with the card @200MHz ( Value changed in Bios ) the 3DMark score is very low ( about 1500 points ). If the windows start with the card at normal speed ( 166 MHz ) and afterthat i rise the clock via VSA OC Tool, the score is Ok.

Unfortunately, i had to bring the board back to his Soldering Master due to some problems. Some pins were not very good soldered, so that some errors appears ....
When the card will come back i will continue the test...

i'm guessing with a heatgun or hot air solder station. i'm pretty good with an iron, but even i would cringe at the prospects of doing that 1 pin at a time.

@ m14radu
How did you do to remove and install the old/new memory chips ?
Obi-Wan Kenobi Posted - 31/12/2007 : 15:31:49
heh yeah 220 Mhz I'd bet that the 240 Mhz should be possible which make me reming me of the 240 Mhz Voodoo5 6000 which Aquoes had heh as most of us know about the 240 Mhz V6K heh.

Nice card! If you're planning to create some more of these "Uber-V5's" ... I'll buy one. But for now: benchmarks please!

Greetings from Germany,

Very very good work and gift!
I really want to see how much this "super voodoo" can run.
Glide Posted - 31/12/2007 : 11:14:14
m14radu, this's a real good work and a Christmas gift for all, starting from RAM modules swap and arriving to great new Bandwith and Fillrate values :)
Now I would know about stability and performance of this "new Voodoo5 revision". Also, I would change VSA-100 coolers with better units to protect hardware: man, these are 3dfx chips!


Compliments.
