Sorry you killed you card Neuromancer, can it be rma'd?
I am contacting HIS about how much it would cost to repair it.

It is still under warranty, but I broke it.

Plus I no longer have original sink for it, so keeping my eye open for another Single Slot HIS 4850 cooler.

Pretty sure I toasted the memory on it. I was a little heavy with the pencil because, and could not understand the readings I was getting on my DMM




Man DrNip, just not the week for DAAMIT hardware apparently...


EDIT: You using the 9.6 drivers? Supposed to not OC as well, but performance improved... (from another thread I read elsewhere... )

What is exactly wrong with the card? Can you post some pics? Did you remove the mod and still no worky?

Well yes, Voltage Factory will work, but only up till about 1.4V if I'm not mistaken. You could flash to ASUS BIOS and use SmartDoctor to set the voltages as well. The easiest way is to do a hardmod of course, but I don't know where to get hold of one of those.

HR I am pretty sure I damaged the memory. Screen is curropt at post and when it gets to windows just turns off completely.


On a positive note, I am subscribing to this thread to learn what I can about the 4890. Will post any information I find elsewhere here as well.

Yeah there is a few things you can do to get the 4890 going fast. There is a BIOS for it as well which can make it run at 1250 under LN2 or DICE of course. Did you RMA the old card already?

No I sold the original Heatsink, so gotta get another one. Bidding on one on ebay right now. Once I swap that out, they will take a look at it and let me know the repair cost.

Hoping that they are as good a company as Jetway. (Bought a ITX board from a forum, the seller threw the 1U heatsink in on top of the mobo, so when I got it, half the caps were damaged. Jetway said send $10 and we will recap it. They returned the check with a fixed mobo :) )

What and where is this BIOS you speak of?

I have 2 4890 that can run 1230Mhz @ dice.The problem is both bios and hardmod related.In a few days i hope to post the hardmod so all our problems will disappear...
