looking for the proper bios to flash my radeon 9800

harderclock · 03-30-05, 04:32 PM

i have a saphire 9800 pro 128m. right now i have an arctic vga cooler and some ramsinks and its running past the 9800xt speeds but im maxed out at 420/370 and im looking to flash the bios,problem is ,is i dont know what is the proper one to use.i went over the sticky posted and went to the link with all the bios but there are a lot of different models and most of the 9800xt bios says the ram is unknown so im not about to use them. i have samsung 2.8ns so if someone here has modded the same card or knows the bios i need give me hand and i would appreciate it.

what you need to check is the type of core on the card and also let us know what pcb the card is on..... once we know that we can advise you on the bios.....

I ran the same card until a few days ago and I used the sapphire 9800xt and the gigacube 9800xt e-die both ran great but the e-die gave slightly better overclock.

i did find the ge-cube in the sticky in this section but it says for the ge-cube with the same memory as me (samsung 2.8) that its clocked at 500/325 does that mean that is what its going to be at when i reboot cause i dont think my gpu will be reaching that speed short of water cooling and a prayer

Also you should upgrade the cooling or it will overheat.
