I`m Russian => bad know english => sorry for mistakes ;)
I made a very cool cooling system on my VooDoo5 5500. Two TT DragonOrb`s 3 [8D] . Later i`ll post a picture.
I found reviem about overvolt VooDoo5 5500, but it wrote in italian. I don`t know this language, and web translate into english not helped me :(
Where i can read reviem about overvolt VooDoo5 5500 in english ?
Thanks..
Hi,
Post your link ;)
I'm sure that somebody will translate from italian to english

Superbox,Nightbird BIG BIG Thanks :)
I`ll post my results later... ;)
Quote`ll post my results later... ;)
Hope ;)
I'm sure NOW that the result will be Interesting ! :D
thank you guys :)
would be great if someone came up with vmod for the ram, though.
i have vsa that clock quite good but with the memory its a different story.
quoting:
7) Back to the voltage modification: to connect the 47k "multi-turns" trimmer we have to remove one resistor, which is located on the upper right corner of the card, near the power connector, where you can clearly see 3 resistors in line. It is the third one if you start counting from the molex; in other words, the latter to the right. You can control its value with your tester (it should be a 17-18k resistor). Well... remove it and solder the 2 wires you are going to connect to the trimmer. Mind to regulate the trimmer in its middle position, before powering up the card.
I mind to the middle position (23,5Kom) and get 3,5V!!! Be carefully!!! I turn off my computer immediately. Then a mind to ~20 Kom and get 3,25V. My VooDoo work stable at 185Mhz(with this overvolt and original bios 1.18). Before on 185mhz had an artifacts. At 190Mhz has a very-very small artifacts. VSA are cold. Can I get 3.3V ? It`s safely? What maximum voltage are safely (when VAS are cold)?
To Superbox
Translate please into Italian and post it to http://www.forumzone.it/link.asp?TOPIC_ID=9153 ;) Thanks! And what about RAM overvolt and AGP8X? :)
Thanks all!
PS sorry for mistakes...
Hi LLIaJIyH. I am happy that you succeded in making the mod. :)
This also means that my traslation has been useful. ;)
I have translated in italian your suggestion about the trimmer position. Thanks.

I am sorry, but there are no clue about the resistance of the VSA to a higher voltage. From here, you are risking your card. Mind it before going on with overvolt.
Mind also that the man who has made this modification said that the ram of his v5 cannot go over 192 mhz, so you will not get a real benefit in going up with vsa frequency if you do not overvolt the ram too.

I am sorry, but the man who made the modification cannot be seen very often in our forum. He has a family and a lot of things to think of, so he has not posted anymore, after that thread. I hope to read him again in the future (maybe with those mods done... [^]), but unfortunately at this time there is nothing new about his projects...
About the ram overvolt, you have the right clues to try it yourself (point 4 of the guide), if you like. But mind that the risk is totally yours... so be very careful and think a lot about it! [8)]
Obviously, post here every experience you make and the results you get.
I am happy to know that somebody has now an overvolted V5 in Russia too. [8D]
It`s a very good idea... I`ll try to make that VooDoo5 5500 work`s on an AGP8X board. But I don`t know what pin on AGP get 1,5V\3.3V.
Here`s pictures voodoo 5500.

What Pin I could cut off?
To SuperBox:
Please translate into italian and post it to http://www.forumzone.it/link.asp?TOPIC_ID=9153 . Maybe trey know what pin get 1.5V\3.3V ;)
Thanks all
PS VooDoo no limits ;) ...

Done.
But I think you could get better luck in asking directly to people like Hank (don't try with e-mails... he has never replied me that way), in the thread of V5 mod projects on this forum... ;)
going to 8x will get no speed improvement on the V5 agp since it doesn't use the texture transfer function of the slot which is all that is sped up via the slot multiplier anyways. buy a V5 5500 PCI board to run a voodoo card in a board that is not capable of 3.3V. the V4 WILL run in a 4x 1.5V slot though..... if you want to do the test yourself get ahold of a V4 and try it at different speeds....
cutting a pin off will do no good with the AGP card anyways, the pins are ALL the same for the 3.3V and the 1.5V on both versions of the AGP port. the motherboard just doles out the correct voltage to the card when it checks the condition of pin 1 I believe (either a resistor to ground or a resistor to Vcc does the trick here). but to get the board into a 4x/8x capable slot won't work without an adapter since the newer slots have an extra keying section that the board will require a cutout for and on the v5 there is multiple inner layers that acctually have traces running through that area and cutting the board will doom it.
Buy a PCI version........ acctually buy a P4 motherboard that has a 66Mhz PCI slot and you will speed up the board tranfers a lttle bit the board IS capable of 66Mhz on the PCI bus (it's the SAME exact hardware as the agp version which runs at 66Mhz)....
