kurosen Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Here's a new development guys, I could really use your help... I just got an AIW 9800 Pro, the thing is, it has the Samsung memory mentioned here: http://www.rojakpot.com/default.aspx?locat...var1=92&var2=12 I'm not trying to jump the gun here but is it at the least POSSIBLE for an AIW 9800 Pro to have an r360 core? Also, do they make a VGA Silencer for the AIW 9800 Pro or just the normal card? Linkage would be nice... Finally, is there a BIOS out there that exists to flash this thing to a 9800 XT and still retain use of the TV tuner part of the card or can you even use an XT BIOS on this thing in any way at all assuming it does have an r360 core? Thanks for the help guys EDIT: I didn't realize the cores were mirror polished because all the pics I've seen are at angles to avoid glare. Good news/Bad news time... Bad News: The AIW 9800 Pro has an R350 core... I guess I can be happy OCing that with the VGA Silencer I put on it, though I might get some ram sinks in there too (are they necessary?) Good News: The OTHER "9800 Pro" I have (with Hynix mem) had an R360 core!! I'm going to get a VGA Silencer for it as well and flash it ASAP!!

spectrascope Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 they do make r360 aiw and yes if it is a r360 core you can use 9800xt aiw bios as flash sorry see your stuck with r350 but yes it can be in the case you have r360 and on the vga siliner the ati silincer revision two works much better than vga silincer becuase the revision two ha copper core and memory plate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurosen Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 Hmmm, very odd... Out of curiousity, I was looking for an AIW 9800XT ANYWHERE online (including ATI site) and can't seem to find anything about it which makes me think they didn't create one though maybe the lucky people with r360's on AIW 9800 Pros could use a modified 9800XT BIOS and still retain use of the TV tuner... I wish I had an r360 on that darn thing, experimenting would have been fun EDIT: there is an AIW 9600XT though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowfactor Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 the aiw dont not , i repeat do not have r360 cores , Unless it's like less than a month old. I pretty sure that U need the samsung memory and a r360 core to have a good flash from a 9800 pro to XT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
