Softmodding Geforce 7950 GX2

[Asis]

Does anyone succeeded in modding the 7950GX2. (To Quadro FX 4500 X2). I previously softmodded an ATI X1600 mobility (Macbook Pro). At present additional power desire to be unleashed.) Do not squander your time, do a number of additional helpful. Modding subsequent to 6800 is presently a storytail. Even you be able to observe "Quadro" card in your control Panel you cannot install correct driver+run 3D app. What should I do here.

You are able to softmod 6800 GT as strongest card to Quadro 8800GT/9800GT modded to an FX3700, or an 8800GTS to the FX4600.8800 GT cannot be modded to Quadro. The 8800GT/9800GT G92 cards are able to be softmodded to the Quadro FX3700 with a BIOS flash. The G80 cards are able to utilize the NVStrap driver originate in RivaTuner. Softmodding with bios flash. They do not work similar to a Quadro with Riva Tuner softmod ,approach into view at the benchmarks in Internet. And they be able to merely be softmodded in 3d Max(they do not run similar to a real Quadro)And Bios flashing is risky and unconfirmed with 8800 GT. But 6800 GT runs similar to a charm in Riva Tuner softmod.

I have succesfully softmodded my 8800GT to QuadroFX 3700 using customized ROM (consideration of Aqua-mac). The majority conspicuous improvements are in 3D apps. In Maya 2009, where 8800GT might merely accomplish a standard of 14 fps on hi-res bike model, the Quadro softmod gain a standard of 20 fps even when I twisted on the anti-alias alternative (smooth wireframe). I used the most recent driver 195.62 WHQL for 8800GT and presentation Driver 191.78 for Quadro softmod.

The most excellent news is the softmod runs flawlessy in together OS (Windows Vista/7 and Hacintosh) and in every submission with exemption of nVidia GPU rendering software a.k.a Gelato. It tranquil works extremely well, but somehow it is able to detect the real GPU and might not take benefit of this sofmod (Quadro architecture). These are the directory of software I previously tested: 3DStudioMax 2009, NextLimit RealFlow 4.3.x, Autodesk Mudbox 2009 SP2, Autodesk Maya 2009, Adobe CS4 & Nuke 5.1v5 (in together Mac 10.5.8 & Win 7 64bit, excluding the 3DStudio Max which is not obtainable in Mac).

Has anyone have an idea how to softmod the Geforce 7950 GX2 to Quadro FX 4500 X2. This card desire to be unleashed for Maya. I previously succeeded in softmodding my ati x1600 mobility to a firegl. I necessitate a diminutive help here. I have got an MSI TI4200 which I have soft-quadroed in the past without difficulty. It might have been with an older version or description of Riva Tuner and a dissimilar driver set and XP SP1 as contrasting to XP SP2. I have been following the instructions here and have attempted this more than a few times with the equivalent results - it becomes a 700XGL in name merely. One of the issues is "Use ROM straps for PCI DeviceID programming" being grayed out so I have skipped it when getting to it. Apparently, it's not obtainable in the GF4 cards according to this thread.

Is there everything else that might be distressing this. Similar to I supposed, I have completed this in the past without problem so I be familiar with it's probable with my card. I do not get the extra tabs in display settings where you be able to choose the OpenGL settings and apps being used, Maya, in this case. Several regulations would be respected. I have an old word doc on how to soft quadro so perhaps I determine to try that method and observe how it fares. I presently was not certain how much in RivaTuner had changed.

The quadro's driver is specialized with apps. And you have similar to driver profiles for certain software, you be able to in addition utilize things similar to Realtime Shader in the viewports with quadros. And the DCC presentation with the QUadro is far advanced to the gaming cards. I believe even the quadro 4500 determine to outperform the Geforce 7950 X2 in DCC apps. Well I presently purchase this Quadro 3450 (it be supposed to be coming in today), but I have the alternative of using an existing 7800 GTX instead.
