Some GPUs can be retrofitted onto earlier boards. This page contains instructions for what changes need to be done in order for the retrofit to work.

Xenon

All variants of the 90 nm and 65 nm GPU can be retrofitted onto a Xenon motherboard. (Demo Video with GPU RHEA)

Guide By: Senator_man

Limitations

Read this BEFORE doing anything with board

90 nm chips work without huge modifications on board because they very similar to factory ones, but there is still some aspects which must be mentioned:

Limitations of board with 90 nm GPU:

  • Standard JTAG wiring will cause a RROD with a 0021 secondary error code. So, use this one:
    • IMG 20240415 134219.jpg
  • Board with Samsung RAM will NOT boot Glitch2, because on Xenon it uses a Falcon(at the time of writing) bootloader, which doesn't support this RAM configuration.

Limitations of a Xenon board with a 65 nm GPU:

  • Retail Xenon firmware will NOT boot because it has no support for 65 nm gpu, so you need to use xeBuild as Jasper
  • Jasper firmware can NOT be booted without blowing an efuse
  • Jasper firmware has NO support of a Xenon type 1 KV, so a Retail nand can be only booted on an Elpis motherboard with Jasper firmware
  • JTAG is not tested

Install GPU

  • Replace 90 nm U4D1 with 90 nm or 65 nm

PCI_e Swap (not needed for Elpis GPU)

Main modification to install newer chips, scheme of wiring:

  • PCI e swap.png

Modification for 65 nm

The GPU part of your board is now basically is Zephyr_B/C, so if you installing 65 nm chip follow instructions down below. This is no need to do any other firmware changes for a 90 nm chip.

Modify Firmware

  • Use J-Runner with Extras to dump the nand
  • RGH/JTAG the console to get the CPU key
  • Set the required XeBuild options and build the image
  • Open the SMC Config Editor from the Nand menu, and update the thermal targets from the table above
  • Write the nand to the console

Zephyr_B/C

Both variants of the 65 nm GPU can be retrofitted onto a Zephyr_B/C motherboard. (Demo Video)

Tie V_GPUPCIE to V_GPUCORE

  • Remove IC U5C1
  • Install jumper as shown to tie V_GPUPCIE to V_GPUCORE
    • Use a 28awg or thicker gauge wire
    • Be careful not to short to any nearby components or pads
    • Strongly recommended to cover jumper with PCB mask
