v5 5500 128MB

[ps47]

..pamatate na chlapka ktory pred casom pridal na v4 dalsich 32mb ram? jeho dalsi projekt je v5 so 128MB.ma to maly zadrhel-musia sa objednat prislusne pamatove moduly,a minimalny odber je 108 kusov,tento stav je treba naplnit inak projekt stroskota..ak zaujem prejavi dostatocne mnozstvo ludi tak je ochotny prislusne karty modnut (treba ratat s postovnym tam a nazad),pripadne rozoslat zakupene pamatove moduly tym ktori si to zvladaju upravit sami..ja by som jednu kartu aj poslal (asi v5 mac).

[wizzy]

Odhadovaná cena modu?

[ps47]

3.5$ za jeden pamatovy modul bez dph plus postovne za kartu(y) tam a nazad (Romania).plus nieco za samotny mod.

[nManJofo]

Pekna myslienka, to by som najprv nejaku V5 musel vlastnit


BTW odhadovany narast vykonu?

[ps47]

v situaciach kde klasickej v5 dochadza texture memory (napr RTCW v 32bit) moze byt velmi vyrazny.niekde to moze znamenat rozdiel medzi spustenim a nespustenim,viz Codename PANZERS - Phase Two:

with 32MB BIOS: http://mitglied.lycos.de/gtxe/v45k_64mb ... 4mb_04.jpg


v 3d marku (2001) to bolo nejakych 10-20% navrch,myslim.

poznamka: momentalne sa jedna vylucne o mod pre v5 agp,pci a mac verzia nieje dostatocne preskumana..

[Ren]

Tak az bude pro PCI, jdu do toho..Ne ze bych to uzil, ale kdyz to pomuze dobre veci, a navic mit unikat...

[ps47]

aby to vedel spravit aj na pci,musel by bud jednu rozkuchat,alebo dostat nejake additional info od Hanka.

edit: 20 modulov som zobral pre seba,to staci pre dve kart aj s rezervou,necham si modnut jednu a pak se uvidi..

[Bezmozek]

Já bych do toho šel, na kolik taková legrace vyjde?

[ps47]

ako som vravel,3.5$ bez DPH na jeden modul,pricom na jednu v5 ich treba 10 (8 na kartu,dva zalozne keby nieco),plus postovne do Rumunska a nazad,ak nemas doma horkovzdusnu pistol..a riziko ze sa mu pri modifikacii smykne ruka a vsetko poleti do pekla.proste si musis najprv dobre rozmysliet ci si dostatocne sialeny a ci mas peniaze na vyhadzovanie..

edit: tak bude si za mod uctovat-25euro za v5 a 10euro za v4 (ak niekto posle v4 agp+v5 agp tak cipy odletovane z v5 moze nahodit na v4),nj,I dont really mind.

v kazdom pripade,tie pamatove moduly sa minaju jedna radost,ak nad tym este niekto uvazuje,je cas sa rozhodnut..

[Taskr]

Dost o tom uvažuji.

[ps47]

ramky su uz vykupene,takze posledna sanca pre jedneho zaujemcu-som ochotny pustit jeden set ktory bol povodne pre mna (mam dost na dve karty,jednu v5agp si necham modnut,ale v5mac si rozobrat nenecham,a v5pci momentalne nemam a nechce sa mi ju extra kupovat,takze jedna sada bude volna)..

The 128Mb modded Voodoo5 5500 is now working with no problem on Single Chip setting. I do not have time today to finish the other half of the card, so I will post the first results of a functional 64Mb for a VSA100 GPU. When I will complete my work on this card, I will open a new topic and present alot of details; but for now I will offer a snek peak.
You all are familiar with the next screenshots... They are taken when using the orriginal Voodoo5 5500 AGP on Windows ME and x3DFX drivers:







When running 3DMark2001SE on a 64Mb Voodoo5 5500 AGP with Single chip setting, I got 1687 points.



Time to enter the "mutant" 128Mb Voodoo5 5500 AGP:







And now, time for a quick benchmark:



As you can see, I got 1815 points, that is 128 3DMarks increase in performance, so the extra RAM is realy being used.

Now, if only I would be able to free some time to finish the modding of the card...

[socket]

ono to funguje

[ps47]

nie,to si vsetci robime prdel (a za tazke prachy)

[-HoNY-]

Do toho jdu. Však všici víme, že jsem pro každou špatnost.

[ps47]

v tom bude trocha problem,ja mam iba jeden volny set a o ten uz bol prejaveny zaujem-jeden chlapek z FF's (ten ale prave povedal ze nech to necham druhemu zaujemcovi,vraj sa o to nechce natahovat) a od nas Bezmozek (ktory sa ale este tiez musi najprv definitivne rozhodnut)..


co ale este mam volne su styri 8mb pamatove moduly (to co zostane z mojej v5ky),tzn niekto by si v pripade zaujmu mohol nechat za podstatne lacnejsi peniaz upgradnut v4agp z 32 na 64mb..

[ps47]

dobra sprava (tiez som to sem mohol hodit aj skor )-v5 128MB uz funguje.zla sprava-pod xp bude treba upravit ovladac aby fungovalo sli.. http://www.falconfly.de/cgi-bin/yabb2/Y ... 1223002040

From hardware point of view, I see the mod complete. First, see some pictures with the modded Voodoo5, but bare in mind that this card has taken alot of punishment when I was searching "in the dark" to find a way to make it functional.





Now, a picture showing the initialization sequence, when it displays the right amount of RAM:



As you allready know, The card runs perfectly on Windows 9x/Me, but it does not work yet on Windows 2000/xp/2003. This seems to be a driver issue, as setting it to "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" produces a functional system. I had no time to circle through all available drivers, just tried a couple of them, so it is possible that a solution might be available, else maybe SFFT could have a look at it.



Anyways, you have seen in the previous topic 3DMark tests againts the regular 64Mb Voodoo5, as proof that the extra RAM does make a difference. But the big hit is that now, with 128 Mb, the card is able to run games that were not available to a Voodoo5 before.
As an example, when launching Codename Panzers: Phase Two on a default 64Mb Voodoo5 produces an error message complaining about not enough video memory:



But if I run the game on my modded 128Mb card, it works, as you can see in the next pic:



I will get back with the technical details on how to duplicate this mod.
I want to offer my thanks to the 3DFX community for the support and my special gratitude to Rolo01, M14Radu and Skinnie (from 3DFXzone.it) who over the time have helped me continue working on 3DFX projects!

podobne sa podarilo upravit aj v4pci:

Another mod has been completed: standard 8Mb chips were replaced with 16Mb modules on a Voodoo4 PCI with the extra memory adresses hardwired. After that, strapping configuration for the memory initialisation was modded on the PCB (and finding the right setup was harder than expected). No BIOS mod was required. The card works with no problems in Windows 9x and 2000/XP/2003. Have a look at some pics:





When the computer starts, it displays 64Mb video RAM:



Ofcourse, it was time to test the modded 64Mb card against the regular 32Mb Voodoo4 PCI.

3DMark 2001SE Voodoo4 32Mb No AA: 1563 points



3DMark 2001SE Voodoo4 64Mb No AA: 1686 points



3DMark 2001SE Voodoo4 32Mb 2x AA: 690 points



3DMark 2001SE Voodoo4 64Mb 2x AA: 867 points



To summarise: we have 123 3DMarks in No AA mode and 177 3DMarks in 2x AA mode counting as the performance gain by adding 32Mb video memory.
As always, I will soon provide detailed instructions about how to replicate yourself this mod.
My thanks go to G1nX/RaverX for offering me the chance to work on theyr card and especialy to Rolo01 for the over the years help and support.

plus jeden request of autora-zhana hires fotky v4 pci zozadu.no-X?

[no-X]

jestli si doma vzpomenu....

[socket]

zajtra ju hodim pod scan

[ps47]

uz nieje treba,niekto to tam uz vylepil..
