nachtfalke Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) :)these cards are really hard to bench ,if you get a card with good ram´s/mem controller then you will have good efficiency! will see that:) actually cpu freq limitted some my submision like 2k6 , 2k5 and aqua ..but i will give a try with cpu under my cascade , actually work in progress!!!

I.nfraR.ed Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) Does not need vmem mod? I see chips on mine are Qimonda. Edited October 12, 2014 by I.nfraR.ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachtfalke Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 mine also Qimonda,( the old infineon) don´t required Vmod ...because no scalling with volts , need reverse vmod:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Ok, looks bad on stock - 800/1130. Will see if it scales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) Stock bios has the pll bug and I can't find another working bios The card is Asus HD3850 512MB non-ref. Bioses from ref cards give me message to connect power cable and other 3 newer asus bioses don't work correctly. I assume all VER010.068.000.002.027052 has the pll bug, while it is fixed in the 010.076.000.001.027551 versions, but none of them is for my card.

nachtfalke Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 i had same problem with Asus HD3870 TOP , i have no PLL bios ..and card are limited at 1100mhz and ram 1250mhz, even this vard has Samsung 0.8ns ram ic´s ...i´m dissipointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 My Sapphire HD 3870 "Extreme" are both good, but this 3850 I got dirt cheap and thought it wouldn't hurt if I try. Oh boy, was I wrong... It's useless without PLL-mod bios, limited to ~860MHz on the core. Mems does not scale with voltage, ofcourse.

nachtfalke Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 i told you , Qimonda no scalling with volts ..not only on RV670 , almost all cards that it had( nvidia aswell)..only isolated case , so i´m in same problem like you with my HD3870TOP , so i will give a try with another card , this time with reference ofcourse:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Yes, I know about those Qimonda, but I've also had cards with scaling Qimonda's, so I had some hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
