I can confirm that you get a temp drop of about 8°C on all cards! This mod is simply fantastic!!!
Gigabyte FX works also (tested)
Asus FX 5900 works
MSI FX's work
this guy claims it works with the gainward bios so i assumed an msi bios would suit me better, also it is supposed to raise vcore on ur card and lower your temps, im hoping to get lower temps since mine seems to heat up alot... plz can i have it pretty plz? oh go on glenn i can see ur 5950 in ur sig! :P

  • 45.23's Resolved SBA Issue on MSI 5900 Ultra

    Couldn't enable SBA on MSI 5900 Ultra with 45.20 drivers. Fast Writes was ok. 45.23's resolved issue allows me to select, but have to reset after each reboot.

    The motherboard chipset drivers (excluding those for the onboard LAN and audio) were installed before the nVidia drivers.
    I re-installed the operating system (item 3 in my first post).
    P.S.
    Just used Driver Cleaner and tried again but still no joy.

  • MSI 5900 Ultra ram specs plz!

    Hi,
    I can't seem to find any information on what ram my MSI 5900U is using.  I know the msi 5950's are using 2.2ns ram.  
    can someone help clear this up for me please.  I can't find anywhere this information.

    The MSI FX5950 Ultra uses 2.0 ns DDR memory, and the MSI FX5900 Ultra uses 2.2 ns Hynix DDR memory chips.

  • MSI 5900 Ultra bios mod help!!!

    Has anyone else with the 5900U  tried flashing to 5950u?  I have tried using MSI 5950U bios but found it "flickered" too much for my liking and now am back to original bios.  
    I would like to hear fellow MSI users opinions on this particular card and what kind of experiences you've had with the bios flash.
    Ultimately I would like to flash my card to a 5950U but would like to hear more opinions with MSI cards before I try again.  
    All help is greatly appreciated.

    hi,
    See H20 reply about ram speed.
    Your guess could be right.
    The temp is lower. When you autodetect for speed adjustment, it gets lower speed reflecting its 5900 root (maybe hardware control/lock), but still higher than I can oc the 5900. At default it is 475/950. Manual adjustment reach 503/1.02g, but not stable.
    Maybe new nVidia driver can help.
    There is another site, http://www.mvktech.net that you may have visited, where there are alternate msiBios (probably the same though). Seems rev2 works for people on some forum.
    Notice that not many msiUsers here are onto this topic. Any guesses? Restrictions?

  • MSI NBox 5900 Ultra wont work at 8x AGP

    I recently bought a MSI 5900 Ultra 256 in the NBox package. I installed it and loaded the latest drivers and began playing DAOC. It was great for half an hour then it locked up. I also had an issue where my refresh rates were really bad and it was drawing like one frame every 10 seconds.
    I rebooted the pc and turned off 8x agp. Botted it back up and played for the rest of the evening.
    I just put in a new 500 watt PS with a 32A 12 v rating, so I would hope the PS isnt at fault. I also had recently cleaned all my nvidia drivers off the machine as I had installed an ATI 9600xt.
    Please help.
    I already spent a week working on an XFX 5900 ultra that I ended up sending back, I dont want do that again. Also, I have noticed a number of other folks here who have had the same issue.

    I have the latest bios and drivers on my pc. I am not too sure what the grease has to do with it not working in 8x mode. I am not real sure what the 3.3 and 5v Amps are actually. The image on the website is very blurry. I looked up a review and found this information:
    3.3v 28 A
    5v    30 A
    3.3v / 5.0v Combined Load - 200W
    3.3v / 5.0v / 12.0v Combined Load - 480W
    The review was found here:
    http://www.systemcooling.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1371
    I am going to try a full whip and reload of my machine. If this doesn't work I guess I will return the card and go ATI from here on out.
    Could this have something to do with the fact that the motherboard is an nvidia chipset? Do MSI mother boards have issues running nvidia FX cards?

  • MSI K7N2-IL 2M/B and MSI MS-StarForce GeForce FX 5900 Ultra

    Hi
    I wonder if you could help me.
    I am curious, the below is the spec of my machine.
    AMD Athlon XP 3000 + 333 FSB CPU
    MSI K7N2-IL 2M/B
    256 GEFORCE FX 5900 ULTRA GRAPHICS
    though the graphics card is reported as MSI MS-StarForce GeForce FX 5900 Ultra [Nividia GeForce 5900 Ultra] in Windows control panel.
    I am needing to learn more about exactly what is what in this PC.  
    I have installed MSI Live monitor and have upgraded to NVIDIA nForce System Drivers though my graphic driver is still reported as 4.4.0.3 or 43.51 [another question why are there two versions given to graphic drivers?]
    As Live monitor doesn't report any further updates possible when there are newer Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website - can I install these ?
    Also I am looking for a utility to monitor, change fan speed and temperature, is the Nvidia  system utility ok to use?  It says that it's only compatible with
    nForce3 Pro
    nForce3
    nForce2
    I'm not sure if I only have Nforce ?
    I would really appreciate any help you may give - I know that the above probably sounds as if I'm as thick as 2 short planks.
    Thanks in advance

  • MSI FX5900 Ultra Installation

    Hi,
    I'm having difficulty installing the drivers for a MSI FX 5900 Ultra.  The following explains:-
    1.  Upgraded to Gigabyte 8KNXP motherboard with 3.2 MHx P4, 1 GByte DDR 3200 RAM and MSI GeForce FX 5900 Ultra, using same hard drive without re-installing the operating system initially.  PSU is a 430W Enermax.
    2.  Had trouble (as described below) installing FX 5900 Ultra drivers but eventually after a few attempts it appeared to work but there were problems with a flight simulator (Falcon 4) locking up frequently so decided to do a complete re-install.
    3.  Re-installed Win98SE, with the FX 5900 Ultra being the only card fitted and it worked correctly on the Standard VGA drivers.
    4.  Installed nVIDIA 44.03 drivers by running Setup on the MSI CD.
    5.  Restarted when prompted, reached Windows Logo screen, then reached C:\ prompt but would not go any further.
    6.  Restarted and it went to Safe Mode on the Startup Menu.  Continued the restart in Safe Mode and Device Manager showed MSI MS-Starforce GeForce FX 5900 Ultra installed, hardware version 161, on IRQ 5 with "This device is working properly".
    7.  Restarted and went to startup menu again then selected Normal and continued the restart.  This gave "Windows protection error.  You need to restart your computer."
    8.  I've tried installing the drivers by using "Update Driver" in the Device Manager and browsing to the CD but the same thing happens.
    9.  I've tried installing DirectX 9.0 before installing the FX 5900 drivers and the same thing happens.
    10  I've tried the nVidia 4.03 drivers and the Detonator 45.23 drivers and the same thing happens.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    The motherboard chipset drivers (excluding those for the onboard LAN and audio) were installed before the nVidia drivers.
    I re-installed the operating system (item 3 in my first post).
    P.S.
    Just used Driver Cleaner and tried again but still no joy.

  • Halo geforce fx 5900 ultra 256 ddr

    hi,

    each time i want to run halo on my pc, i get the following message : "Halo - Fatal error. Couldn't initialize direct3D accelaration. it may be disabled, pls run DXDIAG."
    i've already done that and it is enabled and i've also ran the directX tests, and they are all fine, i have directX 9.0b...i've also reinstalled Halo, didnt solve the prob, also reinstalled detonator drivers, also didnt solve the prob...
    what more can i do ?

  • MSI FX5900 Ultra 256 MB and MSI 648 MAX

    I have just installed my new FX5900 Ultra graphics card and when ever the card runs any 3D application for more than a couple of minutes, my PC will instantly shut down. The only way I can get it back up, is to remove my power cable from the PSU and wait about 20 seconds and then the PC will boot again.
    I have checked the temperature of the card before and after the shutdown; and the latest Nvidia reference drivers show a GPU core temperature of 37 C. In addition, if I put my original GeForce 3 back into my computer, I experience no problems.
    Looking on the internet, I have come across other people who have had a similar problem and this was resolved by changing the AGP slot to run at 4x rather than 8x. I have gone through the 648 Max BIOS and am unable to find anywhere where I can step down to 4x AGP.
    Any Help Will Be Greatly Received.
    Regards,
    Macross

    Thanks for your help guys. Whilst I have not been able to pick up my new powersupply, I have removed the Q-Tec 400W and put my old 300W PSU back, and guess what?? My PC has not shutdown since.
    This power supply lark is totally new to me, and it does seem that a good quality 300W PSU can be better than a average 400W. I have never looked at the 3.3, +5 and +12 before, just the total wattage. Well, you do live and learn. Though it would have been nice if MSI put information like this in the manual of the card, or the WEB FAQ's.
    I shall pick up my new 520W PSU on Saturday. Then I can put this new 5900 Ultra through its paces!!
    Thanks
    Macross.

  • ATI AIW vs. 5900 Ultra

    There really is little hope of things improving.  Tomb Raider was a "The Way its Meant to Be Played" game, i.e. Nvidia payed them $$$ to make it run best on their hardware, and it doesn't - in fact, the way they have rectified the situation is by removing the DX9 features and benchmark feature in the latest TR:AOD patch, and having EIDOS state that Tomb Raider runs great on Nvidia cards (for real, this actually happened).  Half Life 2 has a custom mixed (FP16/FP32) precision path for FX5900 (NV3x) and it still loses out by a good 20% to the Raedon 9800 cards.  At full precision, its half the speed of a 9800 and slower than a $200 Raedon 9600PRO!  The fundamental problem with NV3x is that it cant handle a large amount of temp registers and its only a 4x2 design, which is the opposite of what the DX9 HLSL assumes the hardware uses by default.  Therefore, unless every company makes custom NV3x paths, the $500 FX5900 Ultra will probably perform on part with a $200 Raedon 9600 in DX9 intensive games.  And, even if they do make a path, it will sacrifice IQ and the 5900 still can't seem to beat the 9800.  I have a MSI 5900 non-ultra, and believe me this news pisses me off.  Nvidia's NV3x line is simply too slow to run DX9 at full precision/default settings, and will need seperate special custom programming for every single DX9 game that comes out.  Only problem is, in a year or so, I seriously doubt devs will still be writing custom paths for 1-2 year old NV3x hardware when NV4x is out.  So NV3x users will be forced to slog along at slow fps or buy a new video card.  Sounds grim, but looks like the truth.  The beta det50s only made a 10-20% speed increase, too, which doesn't help things much.  Also, the 9800PRO runs Nvidia's own Dawn demo with a wrapper at about much faster than the FX5900, while looking better.  And Dawn is probably the most optimized for Nvidia you can get... Plus its OpenGL!
    The only bright side of NV3x is that it will run Doom3 based OpenGL games well.  Unfortunately, DX9 is likely what the majority of games will use.
    If I could get my $419 back, I would in a flash.  Not only is the FX5900 a DX9 under-performer, but it has strange problems like the scroll noise as well.

  • FX 5900 Ultra 3D games a crashin

    Hi,
    3D games a crashin
    The problem is whether anti-aliasing or anisotropic filtering are on or off, my games crash.  One minute SOF is fine for two whole levels then the next damn day it crashes before I even get into a server.  Thats just about any game.  Soldier of fortune 2, Delta Force Blackhawk Down, Midnight Club 2.  
    i updated my motherboard with the 7.4 bios update successfully without errors and it didn't seem to help.  I have the Leadtek FX 5900 Ultra installed and its the only card installed.  The new nvidia drivers did not fix this.
    I am running Windows ME and installed the direct X9 update from microsofts windows ME page.
    Now the 7.4 update is way beyond correcting any Kingston memory issues, and I even went to kingstons site to get the settings.
    I tried nvidias new 45.23's and they are not compatible with Leadteks PVR software wich i need to do capture.
    Let me list everything that is drawing power from my 420 watt Enlight Dual Fan power supply
    AMD XP 2800 Barton 2.08 ghz not overclocked
    K7N2DeltILSR (7.4 bios installed)
    Kingston HyperX PC2700 (set to 2-2-2-5 and 2.6v in bios)
    Leadtek A350 5900 Ultra My Vivo on 44.03's
    Seagate 20gig 2mbcache 7200rpm
    Pioneer 16x slot DVD
    TDK 12x10x32 VeloCD
    Floppy
    120mm case fan
    2x 80mm rail fans in server
    1 60mm 7000rpm CPU fan on heatsink
    all under good ol WinME
    or....
    Is this OS related?  Will Windows XP fix my problem? anyway here is my specs
    Is that possibly all too much for Power supply?  Does the Ultra 5900 require a 500+watter

    Death Stalker,
    I clicked on the by connections option in DM and I noticed that the card is on IRQ5 and so is the PCI OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
    Here is what I have tried most recently.  MemtestX86 ver 3.0.  Let it run for about an hour and 20 minutes and go through all of its tests 5 times in a row.  Memory is fine.  Then I said hey my hardrive is a little old and maybe its got some bad cluster.  I let scandisk go examining its surface for 3 hours and its just fine.  I shut off all extra speedy stuff in my motherboards bios like suggested at the MSI forum.  Still the same thing.  I'll be in a match of Soldier of Fortune 2 for sometimes 30 minutes and then suddenly freeze time.  Once in a while I actually get to the blue screen with an error code that is always the same, today I wrote down the windows millennium error message:
    Error:  OE:    0177:   Bff14E01
    Would this help you guys tell me if its my video card or motherboard that needs to be replaced?

  • 5900 Ultra with only 128 mb DDR ?

    Hello people!
    I just bought a nBox with a GeForce FX 5900 Ultra with 256 mb DDR. But after installing the latest driver (5214) provided by MSI, I've just discovered that my VGA Card has only 128 mb DDR. I found it strange because I don't know any Ultra version with 128 mb.
    I'd like to have the help of yours to solve this problem. What can be the solution? A new BIOS version? (I don't find any in Live Update 3) A new diferent driver? Taking the Card back to the vendor?
    Please people! Help me about this problem.
    Thank You All!

    Tell me if I'm a mile off here by all means, but something weird happened with my system a couple of days ago.  The AGP card in my Sig until a couple of days ago was doing exactly as described above and was strangely reporting.....
    Total Local Video Memory @ 256mb
    Total Local Texture Memory @ 256mb....and then frustratingly....
    Total AGP Memory @ 128mb
    .....Obviously it should have been reporting @ 256mb and I also thought I had a duff card too after trying a whole manner of the usual tricks to try and locate the source of the problem and sort it.  I know it's not the mentioned 5900 too, but it did it all the same and depending on what Application you use to view that information as well,  then unless you had one that would report more detailed info like above, if merely using Control Panel for example, then it would report just the Total AGP of 128mg (clearly incorrectly so)).
    Then, I brought the new Monitor also now in my Sig those couple of days ago and installed the Drivers for it, that's the only thing that has changed on my system for a while.....
    I read this thread straight away with interest on seeing it after noticing my FX5600 doing the exact same, and on reaing these posts I went back to double check it again, and I have just found that mine is now correctly reporting at 256mb...HHHhhhMMmmmm.  Now it could well be coincidence, but it does seem that in my case either the Monitor itself or the improved Drivers specifically for it sorted it instantly strangely enough, maybe something to try, you just never know sometimes do you.  The old Monitor wasn't exactly crap either (that was a 17" Samsung Syncmaster 750s, which very soon I'll also be plugging that in too for a Dual Monitor capability and hope that on sodoing that the problem doesn't return either, but if it did I'd be able to tell you for certain too obviously)!!!
    I'm wondering if the ONLY other thing that may have had an influence is I used the AGP Display "D.O.T" and set that up to the "Commander" Setting too??  As said, other than that NOTHING at all has been changed on my system for a fair while!!!
    In all probability it won't, but maybe there's an outside chance that this occurence is relatedas the FX5600 and the 5900 aren't that disimilar or detached from one another when all is said and done either other than the blatantly obvious lol!!
    I'm posting in hope that maybe it could be of use after reading your posts and otherwise hope that those concerned are sorted and rid of the issue in the near future too, good luck !!
