Lol, dude; your comp does take nice pics.  Look at the tits on those wives; never seen such detail on my comp, lol.

Truly something ain't it. Never seen Rune shots like them before.

Maybe is a new mating dance ritual!
Nutt what graphic card do you have?

'Hacked' Sapphire 9500 128MB

I tried to force Truform but seems like that's only a Direct3D thing, oh wellz.

Figures; that red biyatch is 'running' like hell!

that's a hell of a card ya got there. I'm in the market for a new one, how much was that one? Any suggestions? looking to spend 150 at most, like to be closer to 100

Well no it's not a 9500 lol. I said 'hacked' 9500. That means 9700/Pro

If you buy a 9500 for $150, you can 'convert' it to a 9700 worth $300. It can be dangerous, like converting Shady to a priest, but it can be done.

I've almost screwed mine up by sanding down a few resistors around the core

Anyways thanks to my mistakes, I'll let you all in on the secret of how to do it right.

First you need a 9500 OEM(non pro) 128MB card. Mine is a Sapphire, you could also go for powercolor and such other. The RAM layout on the PCB must be 'L' shaped. Meaning two chips on the top, two on the side on the front of the PCB. This indicates that the 9500 is on a 9700 PCB.

The newer 9500s will be protected with a 128bit PCB, so they're not good for this. The layout of the new model has 4 chips across the top of the card. You should easily be able to get the appropriate card right now, but you should try to be quick because ATI has found out about this. Not that they didn't know originally, but they didn't expect people to find out. They asked Sapphire to stop producing these cards, I do not yet know if Sapphire will abide by their request.

So anyways, if you do get your hands on one, Ill give you the 'safe' procedure on how to modify it.

There have been issues with people getting 'checkerboard' effects on the screen after performing the mod. This is probably due to substandard R300 cores that qualified for a 9500. I believe this is caused by a high-order Z-buffer, meaning 24-bit/32-bit. Forcing Z-buffer to 16-bit should clear this problem.

Fortunately I'm able to run a 32-bit Z flawlessly, maybe the people that attempted this mod screwed something up which is why theirs didn't work as it should. Anyways I'd go for it, deal of a lifetime. Get the best video card in the world for $150

Also keep in mind those nice shots aren't purely because of a nice vid card. It's called photography skills

I carry a torch with me for taking shots, it gives nice incandescent glow on the character, very photogenic. Also I reduce the resolution beforehand so there will be no artifacting when attempting to downsize a high-res image. On top of that I use a low-compression JPEG method. Also I take a LOT of shots of the same scene so I have more options to pick the best shot from. And as you can see in the Mr. Uebrigen's wife decapitation scene, you gotta have good timing.

Gotta admit those are some pretty damn neat photo shoots you did there... !
