Co-op ???

Did someone say Co-op? Shocked


I hope your feeling better Komponent Wink



well I meant a good Co=operation between ssstjy & Komponent for show'n us the evidence hehe, nice to see this 64MB 4500 PCI in action, looks like no phooshp , like  thought lol Roll Eyes

What evidence? That photoshop was not @ work here? Fine. Now to the other (much more important) things that can alter the results:

A video showing these few thingies:

1. a program showing the real-time core clock of the CPU, as well as FSB&SDRAM clocks (let's say CPU-Z)
2. 3dfx properties window showing the LOD quality setting, as well as other picture quality settings
3. 3dfx properties windows showing the clock of the GPU/RAM
4. the most important thing: this must be a large video, uncut, one file (not A, B, C, D... ), from the boot, till the end of 3dmark test.

(5). Second video showing the dumping of the BIOS file and then editing and showing it in an external editor.

Now, if it passes that test - I might think about believing in this phenomena, because I don't think that any joker on the net would go through *that* much trouble as to modify the video and/or all of the required components (not that that's that much trouble, but still there are better things to do in the world)... I know I wouldn't  Grin

Thanks alot, dudes for your wishes for my health; it was nothing serious, just painfull headaches, but my wife took good care of me, he-he... so I am very much better now.
The thing about the new video files and pics with Ssstjy's Voodoo4 PCI in action reporting 64Mb is that they do show that is works... but there is still no evidence about... well... how it works? The thing about RAM sizes is that it opperates like a matrix: you want a bigger capacity? -Add more rows/columns. And because every row and column has to be accesible to be used, the PCB has to have dedicated traces for every adress lines. A video with 3DFX Tools and DxDiag reporting 64Mb is nice, but I want to know HOW is it technicaly possible in the first place. That is why, again, I push for the "multimeter test". I thought that I presented simple instructions, very easy to follow, so there should be no problem for Ssstjy to check by himself for the A11 line adress questionable connection to the GPU's memory controller. But if he needs more guidance, then I will be happy to help him step by step, just to get to a conclusion... My oppinion is that a video with the "multimeter test" would be the best proof presented so far. Correct me if I am wrong.

So... OK, it looks more and more like just an elaborate hoax, but I am currious how was it done? It could be cool to replicate it just for fun. By the way, SSSTJY, nice try; I almost trusted it to be true, *cough* huh

Like How gdonovan explained Wink
