buying a card for flashing

[marc1989]

Hi

Does anybody know a good video card that I can flash and oc. Im looking in a price range of 50$ to 100$ CAN (40$-80$ USD).

I thought of the 6200 with the nv43 core.

What do you think?

what u mean by flash

 

[WeatherMan]

Yeah, do you mean flashing like flashing the Cards BIOS?

 

[marc1989]

yes

I wouldnt think the 6200 would be good, since it uses TurboCache. The x800GTO2 is a good card.

 

[marc1989]

good, but I was looking for a cheaper card...

 

[WeatherMan]

Oh Right Sorry Lol Lost The Plot!!

 

[Geoff]

6600gt then maybe?

What could you flash that to... a 6600?

well you cant do that, since they have different cores and ones uses system memory, while the other is dedicated. The only one thats practically guarenteed to work is an x800GTO2.

Also, Turbocache is complete crap.
As well as ATI's HyperMemory.

Who said it wasnt? Thats not really what were discussing here.

 

[marc1989]

is this the only card that can be flashed? (the x800gto)

 

[mrjack]

No, usually the ATi cards are the only ones that have to be flashed in order to unlock pixelpipelines (incase there are some that are disabled and the pipelines aren't lasercut). nVidia cards can usually be unlocked by using RivaTuner.

Not all 6200's use Turbocache.

 

[marc1989]

Do you know a brand or a model of a 6200 agp NOT using turbo cache?

And forget about flashing your 6200 if you get one.

I was thinking of the PCI-E versions...
