I went thru a similar thing with the 9600Pro on my 8600 when it had to be replaced by a card that was 4 revisions greater than the first card.

I dont fully trust nor want to run this bios for too long, but I have made more progress. I still desperately need the MRX800 bios...

Bump.

Hey whackamac, we need that mx800 bios! My mr9800 hit 500 GPU and 412 Mem stable OC and it would be even more insane with more pipes!

Maybe some corporate espionage or l33t hAx0r moves are in order?

None! I was in disbelief, but it was there. 501 Mhz GPU with 4 hours on that freq w/ ati tool 0.2.2. I even ran 3dmark03 on it, and I didn't see any artifacting.

Nice I am guessing these are the later iterations of the grapx card with the better memory? Darn it I feel like upgrading the GPU from a 9800 to another 9800 just for the better memory!!

Well his Core is the one that's really overclocking higher than usual. His memory at 412 is right on the money as far as averages are concerned.

Seems like most everyone tops out around 400-420 on the memory. Few have gone over 440.

Say the additional quad(s) are opened, memory speed will have an even greater impact on performance, as it will be the limiting factor. Yes, benchmarks will go up - but someone with memory at 450MHz will have a nice lead over someone with memory at 400Mhz.
