Allright guys...
So i'm thinking to have a little bit of fun with my old video card- gf2 mx200. Don't give up on me yet, just listen for a while.
[B] It's allready OC'd to 255/215 with stock cooling and i intend to fix a somekind of a voltage and cooling mod to get the numbers up to 300/250 [B], but there's a rather big problem... As we all know the mx 200 is a stripped version from 400mx . And i need to know how nvidia has decreased the transfer rate from 2.7gb/s to the mx 200's 1.3 gb/s. Is it memory dependant (mx400 128bit and mx 200 64bit??) or bios configuration? Correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the mx 400 and mx200 use the identical core (11a).
If the memory chips are ineffective to produce the necessary bandwith, i'd like to know if it is possible to replace that sdr with a 128 bit ddr in a similar package and do a bios update??

and the manufacturer is asus and the product name is v 7100 magic

I always heard, as far as I can remember, that the GF4MX was based on the GF2MX, not the other way around. It was the budget GeForce card when NVidia put the GF4 line out. I do believe they were based on the same core and I doubt that they could've made such a chage through the bios. So it's likely a memory thing as you seem to believe. Whether it was 64bit or 128bit I believe the GF2mx was 64bit, I could be wrong, but it could explain the doubled bandwidth. You should look that up further.

No, he means Between the MX400 and MX200. Yes the MX200 is 64bit, but I dont think you can change how many bit the ram is, thats a pcb thing. Like why a 9500np I cant become a 9700.

From his post that, to me, sounds like what he intends to do. Am I missing something?

Hi again! Doesn't pcb mean a malfunctional chit that will still work on lower specs??? Like a R9700 chip with a few pipelines broken will work with 4 pipelines????

Has anyone tried to mod a mx200 to a mx400??? Do I need to replace the sdr with another sdr (128bit) or with 64bit ddr with double clock speed?????

The memorybandwith is mothaf**** bottleneck in this card, because i can UNDERclock the core down to 133 without any loss in performance AND the core CAN GIVE UP TO 260mhz without any corruption... and probably about <300mhz with a v-mod and a new h.s.

and IF anyone HAS a Photo of an asusv7100/pro would you guide me to it??? (PARDON MY ENGLISH I'M FROM FINLAND AND A BT INTOXICATED RIGHT NOW)
