All-in-Wonder Radeon 8500DV Overclocking!

Jeff · May 31, 2002, 03:58 PM

Hey guys, decided to give my all-in-wonder a whirl at overclocking.

Got it to 300/195! Sweet eh.....

Yeti · May 31, 2002, 10:04 PM

? What was it initially?

Jeff · May 31, 2002, 10:14 PM

230/190.

I think I can get it to 300/200, but this SGRAM doesn't O/C very well.

Yeti · May 31, 2002, 10:16 PM

ummm... This isn't in any way your fault ... but i'm still a little confused (with all the ATI shit and all). 300/195 is GPU/MEM or vice versa? Its just that i can see it happening either way....

Jeff · May 31, 2002, 11:20 PM

I am talking about All-in-Wonder Radeon 8500DV, not just a Radeon 8500, all the 8500DV's come at 230/190.

The AIW Radeon 8500 128MB version comes at the full 275/275 but its got no firewire.

And that is Core/Mem. Also the 8500DV uses SGRAM 2:1 (=DDR) and it doesn't o/c as well as regular DDR SDRAM.

i OC'ed my all-in-wonder 8500dv to 300/190 like you did but it freezes when i try to run the Serene Screen Aquarium 1.1 at 1600 X 1024. the most stable OC for me is 279/203.

Jeff · Jun 2, 2002, 10:55 PM

Well thats not half bad... I can't figure this out, why is ATI running the GPU's at 230 on the 8500DV, it obviously can handle retail clocking...

tanquoc · Jun 3, 2002, 09:43 PM

i guess that way the all-in-wonder 8500 128 looks much better. it makes me feels like a sucker to be one of the first to own the all-in-wonder 8500DV.

sublime6atl · Jun 4, 2002, 03:20 AM

Did you use any additional cooling on the card / ram? I was able to overclock the card using the latest plutonium drivers and the artifact tester, and was able to clock fairly high. However, in a benchmark application ie 3dmark2001, I get MASSIVE artifacts. Will adding additional cooling fix this? Also, please post the procedure you used to o/c this card.
Thanks in advance.

Jeff · Jun 4, 2002, 03:36 AM

who exactly are you talking to? me or that other guy

sublime6atl · Jun 4, 2002, 03:53 AM

I'm asking you. :-D

sublime6atl · Jun 4, 2002, 03:54 AM

also, are there any bios settings to make an overclocked video card more stable?

Jeff · Jun 4, 2002, 03:55 AM

Well on the 8500DV I have, with nothing extra, I pulled 300/195, I added a bigger Athlon TBird fan (Temporarily) and managed a 312/195, but that was max.

Didn't do much to the card, as its an investment, my Retail 8500 on the other hand......

JavaFox · Jun 4, 2002, 04:05 AM

sublime6atl, as a general rule of thumb, the way to make overclocked components more stable is to feed them more voltage. As far as videocards go, you need to do this through modification or, possibly, overclocking software. Oh, and, of course, you need to cool them better.

Yeti · Jun 4, 2002, 10:39 PM

HAH!!!!! It's a friggin lottery goddamnit... my core won't run past 270 (at core voltage)... so all you DV bastards out there... well your just lucky bastards ... thats all. <Grmace> lol

tanquoc · Jun 5, 2002, 03:01 AM

i saw a pencil volt mod for the Radeon 8500, but there is not instuction for a pencil volt mod for the all-in-wonder 8500DV. The lay out of the Radeon 8500 and the Radeon 8500DV is totally diff. Anyone know how to volt mod the radeon 8500DV?

dhc014 · Jun 21, 2002, 03:23 AM

All stock. It couldn't handle the Advanced pixel shader demo in 3DMark2001 though.

Yeah does anyone know how pull this off? my 8500DV is only doing 283core

Kyrenn · Jan 29, 2006, 04:37 PM

Anyone know a good program to o/c a radeon 9200 se card?

Chaos · Jan 29, 2006, 05:32 PM

hehe waking a very old thread, many tools are available like ATI Tool, ATI Tray Tool, Riva Tuner and PowerStrip

Kyrenn · Jan 30, 2006, 04:52 AM

ty but i found them in another thread...now O/Cing
