Flashing my FX5500

[Saint Nick]

I have an eVGA GeForce FX 5500, it's AGP with 256MB of RAM. Now, I was messing around with some other bios' that i saw on MVKTech and an application called Nibitor. I'm sure a few of you are familiar with it. What I did was take my FX 5500's BIOS and changed the RAM timings to that of a 5600 (non-ultra). What I wanted to know was, since the 5600 Ultra is only a 128MB card, will it's timings still work on my 256MB card? And if they do will it cause any notable change? I tried putting a 5700LE's timings on my card, but I got some artifacts, so I was hoping maybe the 5600 Ultra timings will work out. Let me know, you guys are the experts here!

Post on MVKTech, and ask for Fury or Jimmor. They're the experts on Bios flashing and VGA RAM timings.

BTW:
I just won 1GB of Corsair TwinX 3200XL pro RAM off that site last week!!! And it KICKS A$$!
