yep, thats one reason i own a 9800 and not an FX boardViperXtreme said:i dont think you would wanna get an FX series now, yeah they were nice at their time but DX9 kills them, id rather get the 9800Pro.
its likely true, same with the radeons tho, you can get a 9600 and turn it into a 9800 pro by unlocking the extra pipelines (gotta have the exact model for it to work!) or you can get 9800 Pro's and make them 9800XT's which uses better chip functions, unfortunately theres no guarentee if your 9800Pro will come with the R350 or the R360 chip (need the R360 to do it)Mad said:Well, ive heard the 6200 128MB, has 4 pipelines locked, and you can unlock them by softmod-rivatuner, and it turns into a 6600.
There's no mod for the 9600 for extra pipes.. the RVXXX cores only physically have 4. You're thinking of the 9500>9700.refraction said:its likely true, same with the radeons tho, you can get a 9600 and turn it into a 9800 pro by unlocking the extra pipelines (gotta have the exact model for it to work!) or you can get 9800 Pro's and make them 9800XT's which uses better chip functions, unfortunately theres no guarentee if your 9800Pro will come with the R350 or the R360 chip (need the R360 to do it)
