New Try..

Now i´ve changed the 3D Voltage to 1,2 Volt and changed the Speed to 400/900MHZ. Look at the results, its great, because the temp is right cool and no more over 90° Celsius..

But its not so easy to change the voltage, because you have to change the VID in the Hex Editor..

Think its enough for me. Look at the results.




This Temp is without any extra fan or fan modifications..







--------------------------------------
But something i dont understand... When the card is in the 2D modus with 100/658MHZ she is going up to 82° celsius. Thats unbelievable for me. I set it down do 1.0 Volt and 70/500Mhz.. but there was no changes in the temp. she goes always to 82°..then the fan kicks on...

Is that the highest at 1.2v? Id like te copy of the bios you use please?
I think mine is throttleing back when it reaches 93deg. Frame rayes drop and 3dmark score suffers. So far 6487 is my highest after the machine cools.

yes it is the highest 400/900.... at 1,2 volt. but higher didnt works for me. but i think it is better for the card as 1,3 volt..because she is going not so hot.

here is my bios file with 1,2 volt and 400/900Mhz http://grafiknet.de/1-2volt.rom

Tell me if you´ve tried, wich temp you have..

Just giving a point of reference that I am not an ignoramous spouting nonsense). My 7800 GTX Go on my XPS2 would get up to 82 degrees C WITH both copper Heatpipes and AS5'd so there ya go. This is an accident waiting to happen.

Personally if I get 5500 ish oc'd without the voltmod I will be pleased as punch. I will know more tomorrow when I get mine. Not worth the extra 4-5 fps for me to do this voltmod and really if you have any common sense about you (not talking intelligence here, A lot of people on here smoke me in that department I am sure) you will skip this voltmod.

Seen desktop 6800 GT's go up in smoke in 4 months using the old bios flash to 1.4 v to make them 6800 Ultras. People forget the cores may be the same BUT the PCB and cooling solutions are different. For me, if the 18% increase in voltage gave me more performance I would do it. But we are talking more like a 12% increase in performance assuming a score from 5500 to 6200ish. Risk does not= reward(for me).

You do this at your own risk and really people, even with a HEAT mod the PCB is clearly different from the pics and it is not rated for this voltage. You really should skip this one. These are not desktops, and people that tend to do serious overvolting do not do so on lappies. They do so with watercooling and tend to turn over chips quick(say every few months) I LOVE mods but this one makes no sense logically for the longterm use of your laptop. Just my two cents...
There are two types of overclockers...those that do it for fun & the challenge, and those that do it for the performance boost. I'm starting to make a transition from the first to the latter. The performance is already there with stock voltages and a good oc on a 7800go, so i'm not going to do this until I see it offering a benefit that out weighs the consequences.

peter-pan - your rivatuner temp chart is climbing, but taking a break because of the loading of the next scene. You need to run something continuously to stress it. Try looping a test 20 times and see what your temps do. That's the only way you're gong to find the max temp, and more accurate to how games are played.

overclocking is fun, but only when you have control over the temps. In this situation, overclocking is very dangerous because of the lack of cooling. If someone does this mod and happens to use it on their lap, they're going to block the air intake and fry their GPU.

But, it's overclocking, and it's fun and easy to do. I'd consider it for benching, but be careful guys if you use these voltages & clocks 24/7.

Obviously I'm not going to leave this voltage on at all times. It would kill battery life for one. I just plan on doing it for benchmarking. 6500 or bust!!

I was told we all needed to run the BM's at 1280x1024 to be comparable...

try it again let us know what your score is

Can you guys run 3DMark06 so we can compare your scores against the benches in PcGeek04's thread? Thanks!
