some mixed response as to whether or not it can be donevalerian said:can an x850pro pcix, be unlocked from 12 to 16 pipelines?
(mod confirmed on some agp x850 pros but not believed to be possible on the pcie version) thus far all of the pcie pro cores that i have incountered have been locked perminatly via severed pipes (in core)
if you would like to atempt this mod it can be done the same way as the xt to xtpe mod but you will first need to verify that your card can run at x850xt/xtpe speeds artifact free you can do this with ati tool by clocking the card to "520core/540mem for xt" or "540core/590mem for xtpe" if something goes wrong you can always flash back to the pro bios btw this card should be flashable to a x850 xtpe even if the pipes dont unlock (12 pipe x850 xtpe)
use the moded flashrom for this flash - flashing instructions are at the bottom of the page
