What about others? What about those "kind of better" matte screens (LP156WF1-TLB2), can they be overclocked even more?

• newer production series (+1 year)
  
• higher power consumption backlight
  
• higher brightness & contrast
  

Though the last item is of course due to the backlight (dialled up to offset the antiglare coating).

If there'd be a difference, guess most would be due to it being a later series.

Vbios probably locked, try ATIFlash, boot from usb and use:

atiflash -unlockrom 0

(where 0 is your adapter id, it's likely 0, but to be sure use "atiflash -i" first)

It's a capacitor, actually. Hence the "C", the resistors are "R". Just solder in a new one, it's not absolutely necessary, but it helps to stabilize current.

It is, of course, not a very good sign ... check if any other are missing; they don't vaporize into thin air without reason.

The black pcb alone is not conclusive, neither are the part numbers on the back; these all refer to the full card.

The only way to be certain is, unfortunately, to look for ENG on the chip itself ... not even "atiflash -ai" command will help, it gets its information from the vbios.

great, thanks .

can't send pm though (minimum post count?), but i've enabled vcard download, that should work.

yoshey791, care to send me (or upload) this Mythlogic 7970m vbios?

Got several versions now, but only 3 of which are certainly non enduro, yet they are rather old (and perhaps buggy hdmi), so am hoping this Mythlogic is a bit more up to date.
