successful 1.4v 7900gt vmod..

[MrE]

Good times, good times

Bought some silver conductive paint, cleaned my card with earbuds + Isopropyl Alc., taped out the path from ground to D5 with 3M scotch tape, and did the deed.
Wasn't satisfied with my first attempt, was a bit blotchy, so I cleaned it off with an earbud + I.A. and did it again.

w/ vf900cu, and 50mm(I think) fan attached over the rear voltage regulators (old Cooler Master CPU fan)

Before mod: 537/1600, highest stable core clock.

After: 642/1600, but I set it at 640 cos I like round no.'s

The ram can run at 1804, but apparently higher ram results in very little performance gains, so I leave it at 1600.

7900GT after oc can bring you some problems,be careful~

 

[MrE]

Ye, thanks Yang, ..I've done all the research I can, done only a relatively mild OC, as 1.4v is what they were designed to run at, and am actively cooling the voltage regulators, ..so I am "relatively" confident..

En, In asian, Chinese Japanese and Taiwanese always like oc their 76GT and 79GT, cards can working and no problems, but people found after sometime use the oced card, there has a high chance to break your card.........

I am a nvidia fan, and I was attack by ATI fans because 76/79's problem. Sad~

 

[MrE]

haha, shame, I hope u don't have any serious injuries!

Oh well, I have consciously taken the risk, so I'll have to deal with whatever happens.
But I just had to try it!
Won't take it any further though.

Well, if you ever decide to do it, I wouldn't mind doin it for ya at all, there is still 99% of the paint left, and I can insure a super clean job!
CT tho.
You could just pay my petrol money to get to where you are.
