Thanks for the tip.. I *thought* I could do it through drivers, but everything I hear says "flash bios".. Maybe to unlock additional pipes?

Anyone know what's toned-down in the 7800 vs the 7800 GTX?
The BIOS flash for the Go 7800GTX is to overclock it because Dell locks the card via the BIOS to prevent any software overclocking. The 6800Go does not have this lock, so I'm hoping that the 7800Go does not have the lock either. Based on fill rates and 3DMark05 scores, it seems that the 7800Go is a 16 pipe card with ~300MHz core clock.

Aha du kannst Deutsch.
Also als erstes mal bräuchtet ihr aufjedenfall mal andere Ram' s da die 533er dann nicht machen. Dafür empfehle ich diese hier. Klick
Ohne das braucht ihr garnicht damit anzufangen. Dann müsstet ihr noch jemanden kennen der bei Intel bzw. auch bei Dell arbeitet und genau weis wie man das macht. Da der normale Chipsatz das auch nicht macht. Daher brauchst du einige Features des neuen Chipsatzes für 667Mhz. Diese musst du dann mit für den 915PM miteinbeziehn. Usw. Ich muss jezt gehn.
Eigentlich müsstet ihr euch selbst um sowas kümmern.^^

Du musst gehen... aha... gut, hört sich interessant an. Wenn du aber schon jemanden kennst... muss man da leicht ein teil bestellen, dass man normal nicht bekommt?

Ok guys he cant talk now, he had to leave... ill be checking the german site... what he said so far was that we NEED 667mhz RAM and i think a new mobo... or some part. Didnt go into detail there. We need some features of the 667 mhz mobo (the one that supports the RAM, logically, think it's the 955?).

€dit: Ok, he said that it reaches 68°C with load @ 2.8ghz. He's also running it with 1.45V. Says it works, but he's only tried it 2-3 minutes for benchmarks. He can change the FSB, because his contact at Dell did something for him.

Ja, das stimmt so ungefähr. Du braucht eingies des 955er Chipsatzes. Das Mobo ist dann etwa so wie das, des Inspiron 9400.
Und ich muss gehn, weil es in Deutschland schon nach 21Uhr ist und ich noch eine Dinge für die Schule/Studium machen muss. So nun muss ich wirklich gehn.

isses in österreich auch, und ich hab VERDAMMT viel zu tun >-< ich hasse nur französisch. Und das zeug muss man... inoffiziell von dell bestellen, ne?

K buddies, we got work to do, its 9:30 pm (school/college). :/ All he added apart from that, is that our mobos will end up being very similar to that of the 9400 (the 955 or 945, whatever it uses)

Btw... he didn't. He has since changed his Sig after being asked for screen shots and proof of overclock. =/

Well, I'll hold him to his word until he says otherwise. His 3Dmark05 score is the highest I've seen, but still seems low for such an overclock.

I see still the same signature ...

He didn't say that he ran 3DMark05 at 2822MHz. When it's not pinmodded but really overcockable he could have run at ~2550MHz and his score would be quite right.

Yet I'd love to see a prove of this. That would we could place e.g. 9400's mobo into XPS.

Miltenberg (where he lives) is 157km away from where I live ... ^^

*lol*, guys, his sig has ALWAYS been the same... my guess is that JaxChris just saw this, and thinks ultratobias' sig used to be different. @JaxChris: page before this, scroll up, click the link ultratobias gave. That's what we're all after. A quick question: What did he do with his ram, he like put it in foil? Copper?

That's what i said . My guess is you don't like divulging your secrets when you're being accused by someone who didnt do RESEARCH...

willst du uns dann mal erklären wie du das gemacht hast? ^^ danke .

€dit: What the heck am i doing wrong, im not an idiot: I burned the .iso file to my CD, but when i select the drive from the boot menu, there's that blinking thing at the top left, but then it loads windows >-<. Should i smack the enter button or what? burned wrong...? All burning an .iso file is pretty much extracting all the files (using rar) and burning them to the cd...? I burned it using nero, just doubleclicked it (i've *NEVER* written *ANYTHING* on *ANY* CD before). Do i have to select that option that says the disc is finished afterwards, no more burning? That's the only thing that would make sense, but i don't wanna risk it (BTW, googled it already ^^)

Ja, also ich hab mit der Person gesprochen, die das bei mir gemacht hat.
Aber das Problem ist, das er dies aus rechtlichen Gründen nicht weitersagen möchte, da die Gefahr besteht, das er dadurch seinen Job verlieren könnte. Da er in diesem Bereich was mit Chipsatz usw. zu tun hat tätig ist.
Daher würde er raten, wenn man das anders machen will, das Board des Inspiron 9400 zu verwenden (er bestätig, das es auch in das XPS bzw. 9300 passt, da sich die Form nicht geändert hat.)

Tobias please show us a CPU-Z Screen and "Systemsteuerung -> System -> Leistung" beside so we see it's really an XPS. (Make black boxes over Ident Key).

You have something very very extraordinary!

oha, is ja höchst interessant.

Also... wenn wir das mobo... OMFG... wenn wir das mobo vom 9400 nehmen... passt auch DUAL CORE rein! Sicher dass das passt? Passt bei deinem abgeänderten mobo DC rein? Plus, muss man nicht noch was mit dem BIOS machen, so wie entsperren oder so?

Überhaupt und sowieso, wie würden Leute draufkommen dass wir das machen, könnten wir ja selber rausgefunden haben, sind sowieso alles amis ^^.

He says the contact he has doesn't wanna tell, scared he'd lose his job. He is certain though that we can use the 9400's mobo.

€dit: Someone wanna answer my question, last post last page ^^.

Die Frage, mit dem Bios konnte er mir bis jetzt noch nicht klären. Aber er meinte es müsste zu ändern sein( Ähnlich wie beim 9300 zu XPS) Und ja du könntest dann auch im XPS die Dual Core CPU's nutzen.

Auch wenn ihn niemand kennt, möchte er es nicht sagen.
Da er mit dem Beruf in verbindung ist, weis er immer schon vorher was als nächstes kommt, und welche ändernungen vorgenommen wurde, usw. Und solche Sachen darf er nicht weitergeben. Er hat es auschließlich an meinem und seinen Notebook vorgenommen.
