For PCI Express x16
GeForce 6800 (PCI-E) Ultra, GT -> Quadro FX 4000 speed and features
The above is for GeForce 6800 AGP 8X.
For GeForce 6800 PCI Express x16, use the same procedure...!
The difference will be that after you have finished the mod on PCI Express, Windows will still show the card as GeForce.
But even if RivaTuner was not able to fool Windows, it was able to fool the ForceWare drivers.
So by benchmarking your card, before and after the mod, you will see the differences.
By "benchmarking" I mean SPECviewperf
http://www.spec.org/benchmarks.html#gpc
(and not the "3DMark" tests from Futuremark, as those are mainly for testing your card's perfomance in games.)
HOWEVER: on PCI Express, there are some GeForce 6800's that have NV41 core;
GeForce 6800 GS, GeForce 6800 LE, GeForce 6800 XT and plain GeForce 6800,
(remember we are talking about PCI Express versions of these)
- these are not possible to modify to Quadro. Not at all. Most likely, never.
The only ones that are currently verified to ALWAYS have NV40 (which are possible to mod)
are GeForce 6800 Ultra and GeForce 6800 GT.
So if you are going to buy one now, those are the ones you should choose.
(Actually, these PCI-E cards use a special GPU named "NV45" - but this is just the (AGP) NV40 and a AGP-to-PCIE bridge.)
Finally, if you want to use the native application profile settings in Display Manager
(to choose "Maya", or "SOFTIMAGE|XSI", or "Pro/ENGINEER" etc.)
you have to - AFAIK - copy the file "nvwsapps.xml" into "C:\WINDOWS\system32\" manually.
Since Windows is still seeing your card as a regular GeForce even after the mod,
this file is not automatically installed.
This file is inside the ForceWare drivers, or rather, the compressed "nvwsapps.xm_" version of it.
You use WinRAR to extract it out, then use "expand.exe" to expand it, enter
"expand.exe -r nvwsapps.xm_ nvwsapps.xml" from a command prompt.
Or use the one I have attached, "nvwsapps.txt" - just rename it to "nvwsapps.xml"
and save it to "C:\WINDOWS\system32\"
Restart your PC, and then you should see the list in "Performance & Quality Settings" tab in Display Manager.
And if you use 3ds Max and want to install Maxtreme 4/6/7/8 driver, just download it from
ftp://download.nvidia.com/ws_apps/MAXtreme/
and install it. It will work even if Windows still shows the card as "GeForce 6800".
