Retail Parhelia not at retail clock speeds...

[K6-III]

Mine did default at 220/550, but is currently at 238/620.

Here is my pinsfile. (serial number removed)

Seems to be very different from everyone elses.....

[DGhost]

cool, tks...

lines, 6 8 and 10 are also different

from my file:

6 2 0x04EB
8 2 0x0003
10 2 0x050A
140 4 0x9D7F0002
156 4 0x23230000

yours:


6 2 0x04D9
8 2 0x0001
10 2 0x030A
140 4 0x9F810002
156 4 0x2A2A0000

edit: updated with the other lines that were mentioned earlier, and of course lines 36 and 56 are different because of the clock speed differences...

[K6-III]

Lots of lines are different...

What do they do???

[DGhost]

dunno what they would do, but i would love for Haig or someone else from Matrox to comment on this...

sometime later tonight i might make a bios recovery disk and flash my card with a pins file that matches yours except for the clock speed and serial number....

[K6-III]

Make sure to keep us posted...

Mine is identical to yours (except of course the serial number and that you have overclocked yours.)

Sorry gang but tech supp will not give out any info as to what our pins do.

You can try your luck with dev rel but I'm sure you'll get the same type of response.

[DGhost]

any chance of getting any sort of insight or info into the clock speed discrepancy, even if it is only 3mhz core and 4(8)mhz memory?

Haig, Parhelia is the first time Matrox actually announced the clock speeds. If these cards are underclocked, it might not be tech support's business, but maybe the legal department should be talking on your behalf.

Funny that the first time Matrox actually advertises clocks, it might shoot them in the face big time for misrepresentation.

Yep. You'll get our official response once I get into work. I was just referring to pin specific info, not the clock speed discrepancy.

[DGhost]

cool, thanks...

How can I make bios recovery disk for Parhelia.

[thop]

pssst haig, your boss doesn't need to know. get yourself some alter ego (like giaH ) and post that by some strange coincidence you decrypted the meaning of all pins!

[OZZIE_NO_GOOD]

Well I modded my card heavy extra heatzinks a big super orb on the core and gues what no extra overklocking at all just a crappy few mhz on the memo and the core pffff total shit core this one cant clock a single mhz more then the 220


Ps where are those voltage mods i need one to overklock e few mhz

[Wombat]

I doubt a voltage mod would help you. If the wall is as hard as you say, you're not going to get it to go much faster no matter what.
