Need Faq - Vmod (Voltage Boost) for Voodoo 5500

[Ralf]

Hi
i need faq or any instructions for Vmod to voodoo 5500 PCI
My Voodoo 5500DVI based on Micron 5,5 ns Memory and boost to 205-210 mhz
ofc i change and modif timings set  (i spend around 4days)
I think when i Voltage boost posible voodoo go to 230/230

Btw. i find Vmod but for AGP ver and Italian language :-(

thx for help

p.s
if you need best bios for o/c voodoo 5500 and 4500 (best timings sets)
write to my mail

how did you get 5.5ns ram?! its original, or you changed the original ram?

[bloodworm]

can someone post a link to the original VMOD in Italian?  I can take a look at it and try to give an English spin on it.  Simplify it even.

hi
Vmod - italian

but unfortunately ver Pci have differences PCB BOARD than AGP

btw
ahavasi
ivgot from UK
its orginal TG-55D

i only change cooling (gpu and mems - zalman @ OCZ flowers) and timings set
Image my card soon

now i think about how increase voltage

[ahavasi]

my PCI Macintosh V5 is got MT rams too, but they're only 6ns

dont forget to post your results;)

now i have a litle problem
i dont know but i think my voodoo use only ONE CHIP (GPU) on 2d(normal) and 3d
and when i set 166mhz or 205mhz results = no Boost - the same score always on quake3 timedemo and 3dmark 2001se
difference in score is when i use 1600x1200  - 166mhz = 42fps(timedemo2) - 205mhz =51fps (Timedemo2)

i install voodoo 4500AGP @195mhz and its faster than Voodoo 5500MAC 205mhz

any suggesting

[ahavasi]

:S

in 3dfxtools, make sure in the "anti aliasing "option, all set to "fastest perfromance"

Use the VSA-100 OC, another OC programs are only overclock 1 chip.

The standard over-clocker does not work on V5. Only the master chip is programmed to higher clock rates. KoolSmoky did a patch a loooooong time ago to program both chips to higher clock. I just do not remember where he posted it.

If the slave chip is still running at 166 you will not get a boost in performance. Also see that you are in Fastest Performance mode, like mentioned by ahavasi.
