Title: GPU memory timings editor
Post by: phobosq on September 23, 2017, 02:36:46 PM
Hi all,
while following GDDR5 custom straps' thread I made a program for myself to help creating them. It currently supports Polaris and I'm testing Tahiti, so I thought I could make it more public. Please contact me via PM if you want to obtain it.

Usage:
1. Paste source strap in "Input -> Encoded strap" field
2. Click Load
3. Make modifications in "Decoded values" section
4. Click "Generate new strap".
5. Once finished, copy the new strap from "Output -> New strap" field and paste it into BIOS.

Changelog:
v0.1:
- first release
- support for Polaris

Great work. Although you are not making it public at all.

Um nice work. I appreciate the effort you've put into this however id just like to clarify the ff:

1. How safe and useful would this be on my GPU? Why not just copy the timings which already are on my GPU?
2. Is there much advantage to using your program over simply using the trusted Polaris Bios Editor?

This is an editor of timings not editor of bios.

It allows to prepare custom set of timings and store it in a proper format. You have to insert it into BIOS using PBE or hex editor, and then flash the BIOS so that changes become active.

Still no race is there in which you faced defeat.

Hi,
I have an 7970 Ghz that I flashed to 280x.
It seems the 280x Bioses have better stock timings.

I'd like to check with your tool, if possible.
