Voodoo5 5500 on K8T800Pro ( AGP 4x )

[m14radu]

Maybe the nforce series ( Nforce2 and Nforce3 ) have this protection.
did u read this somwhere ?

I wait your SLI result !!!

P.S. Here is the databook : http://3dfx.rule.lv/downloads/DATABOOK.PDF

I think that it will be easyer to find only one common soldering pin that lead to all VDDQ pins, and then to supply him with 3.3V.
One soldering point instead of 5 !

Can u switch to AGP4x in Bios ?

Hi,

No, not that I read, but I tested 23 Mainboard with Nforce2

Thank you, thank you very

One point instead of 5 is excellent, the problem is that I have to test it on many Mainboard, Sis, Via, Intel ...

If you want to use only PinOut Mainboard of the A34, not Mod. The Voodoo

You can go from a 4x bios, but the Voodoo was not activated as Agp4x only 2x ...

I have good news for you, I turned on the bus Agp4x with Voodoo in sli, to do this, I built an adapter with potentiometer from 50k





Starting with the Mainboard Vddq 1.95 v / v 2.00, Windows 3.35 Vddq increase the v, the Voodoo is Stable!

Good Job ciacara !

Well, i must admit that i'm impressed about that.
You really did it !

And it's working at full potential !

Please run the benchmark with AGP2x setting and with AGP4x setting ( via BIOS ) and tell us the difference..if they exist.

Thgeoreticaly, u have now a AGP4x compatible voodoo5 !
It must, also theoreticaly, work in every AGP4x Motherboard !

The next step will be to find out witch chipset agree this overvoltage ! ( i bet that nforce3 chipset will agree this )
This is the biggest risk, to test the modded voodoo on different platforms.....
I must admit that i'm a little bit affraid to do this mod on my Mobo !

The other possible risk is that after a while, the voodoo will die because of this modding.
But it's only my presumption.

Please do the translation on intalian forum, so that everybody could copy and test this mod. I'm sure, that this will be very helpful !

Once again, good Work !:)

Thanks m14radu


Just can, prepare the translation of Thred and I will be testing bios you asked

We made a big step forward with this Mod

bye

Translation completed

Good Night

how do u connect the potentiometer ?

You mean that 1.95V / 2V it's enough to get the voodoo stable ?
Bios voltage VAGP is 2.0V ?

My Motherboard only alow me to rise the VAGP to 1.85V...if the VAGP is 2V it's enought ?

do u have any other platform available to test the voodoo5 ?

The adapter / potentiometer connect this:

5 v ---> adapter ---> Voodoo modded

Or:

5 v ---> adapter ---> modded Mainboard

I try, but do not think so unfortunately ...

In three weeks I can try five Mainboard, then you know I will

[m14radu]

Now try to overclock the voodoo5 !
Last time you managed to run it stable at 192 MHz.

You should gain more points in 3dMark2001 !

am i missing something or would the easiest way to make this mod be to desolder the keyed agp connector from the motherboard and resolder a non keyed connector from an older motherboard???

thanks, and GREAT work to keep the voodoos on modern platforms.

Hello princess,
You can use an old agp slots, you need to remove the Pinout not use
