Make sure you have the nvidia display in classic mode so that you have the tab for "Clock Frequency Settings"

it should look like this:

Thank you Stuckinasquare and Pdonket! Well I dont have the callsic control panle! Would you mind telling me how I can get it? Thanks again!

right click on the background screen, then Nvidia Control Panel>View>"Use classic Nvidia control panel">click OK> window will then close then right click the background again>nvidia display>laptop display. And just like that, your all done

Rep me if I helped!

Hey thanks again pdonket, but when I right click on my desktop in the menu it shows "Nvidia control panel" but it wont allow anymore options. If i put my cursor on it (nvidia control), I dont get another menu or option with "view". I've trie to find it thoughout but I cannot find an option to change my veiw.

Sorry for being so noobish! Leme know if you can think of anyithing! Thank you!

AHHH!! Nevermind! I found a way to keep the setting with the new Nvidia control panel. The only thing is that you max overclock setting for your memory is 800. Thank you for your info and effort!

No problem! I was a noob with all of this at one point not too long ago as well my max overclock is also 800 mem even with the old control panel. I'm always glad to answer a question I know the answer to

Great stuff, Juan!
Btw, anybody know how to get the memory to go beyond 800 in the control panel?

if you download ati tool, you can select it higher than 800. I currently have mine set to 850. Not sure if it actually sets it or not thought. haven't found a way to double check

You can check with Everest

I think we may want to ask GeForceTony about the extension of the memory clock slider. The problem with using ATITool is that you cannot use ATITool to auto set the clocks at startup. You need the coolbits hack with the classic control panel to be able to set the clocks permanently. Unfortunately if you try to set say an 850Mhz memory clock with ATITool, and then try to use the NVControl Panel to set it permanently, the mem clocks will default back to 507Mhz for the GS and 600Mhz with the GTX BIOS upon a restart.

Tony, do you know any method of stretching that clockspeed slider a little farther? I swear a long time ago I had heard of a method to do such crazy things, but for the life of me I cannot think of what it was... Maybe when I don't have a million things going on at once (trying to play Santa right now ) I will try to do a little more research on the topic.

wait so how do we know which 7900gtx rom to use, i dont understand the 3 different options =(

anyone had tried the 7800 go gtx rom? any problem?

So first I have to thank a lot for the great work of modding the vga-bios.
Contrary to all expectations everything went fine and my 7900GS is still alive

But I have still a lot of questions to the experts her and I hope very much, that most of them can be answered.

For start I only used the 790GSUON.ROM - version with the stock voltage of 1V.
With this bios the core reaches up to 490 Mhz but I have some artefacts in 3DMark 05. So I set it to 470Mhz. Still at this frequenzy I have some yellow dots when I`m testing with the Ati-Tool, but however Ati-Tool reports 0 errors.

The temperature under load peaks at 79 °C That is not one degree more than the maximun ideling Temperature under windows.

My question now: Is this normal for the card, or am I unlucky and got a bad card.

Next question: If I have artefacts.... Does that means that the card is near death? Can artefacts harm the card, or is this only a sign that the card is in need of more juice?

If i would flash to 1.24V....Isn`t that too much for the card. I mean the 7900gtx is also working with 1.24V but isn`t it possible that the 7900GS has for example weaker voltage converters ? Or is the 7900GS structurally identical to the 7900GTX except for having less Pixelpipelines and lower clocks ?

If i go to 1.24V...Are the Rams getting more juice then too or only the core ?

And the last one: The Ram reaches 650Mhz and far above without artefacts, but with a core clock of 470 the 3DMark score decreases with ram clocks of above 600Mhz. Is this normal too ?

@juanlu206
So would it be asked too much to make a Bios with, for example 1.1V to increase the performance but still taking care of the card so ? Or is this not possible ? Imho this could be a happy medium.



And due to the fact that english ist not my native language i cannot guarantee that my post is free of errors

I tried this with the 1.24v memory optimized bios and it works great but peak temp was 90c (singe pipe) and I think that is a little too hot. I lowered the voltages but I don't know if it will break my card or not. So my question is will flashing this bios break my card?

ok well one of the options i figured out is the default rom for the card duh...
ok but whats the differences between optimized memory or not? Will one perform better/let me overclock more?

I flashed the 7800GTX unlocked version and indeed, Everest sees my clock manipulations instantly when I use AtiTool.

I'l start testing with it asap, but so far so good. After a nice fan mod I should be able to get to around 500MHz on the core and 1300 on the mem... hehe...
