Sparkle 6600gt

Post by Black Mesa Scientist »

I recently bought a zalman vf700 cu for overclocking my 6600gt further. Now I have some decent temps, and I wanted to put a voltmod on my 6600gt. I know there are loads of voltmods on the net but I came to the conclusion that my 6600gt looks different than other 6600gt's.

When I followed instructions of the modding guides, I didn't see the modding spot where I had to solder or pencil.
Also I saw that my capacitors are shattered on the board differently than on other 6600gt's.

It's a sparkle 6600gt AGP . Can someone tell me where the Core transistor wich I have to pencil to increase voltage?

Here's a pic.

As you can see the architecture looks different. How can I voltmod this one?

It's not a sparkle one but aside from the colors it looks the same.

Honestly how much OCing does more AGP volts get you? There's a risk of frying your card too, I go from 1.5 to 1.6 in BIOS but beyond that I"ve heard you're gambing with Satan if you voltmod a GFX card...

It's 1.3 volt 2d and 1.4 volts 3d so.... should be possible. I tried it by a modified bios but it just doesn't go higher
