Somebody tell me im wrong, this card appears to be locked at a hardware level as rivatuner cant unlock the masked quad or vertex shader.

Im a bit annoyed because i was wondering due to theway higher clock speeds it can run compared to the 6800vanilla im running now iwas interested tosee if it could out perform it. Which i doubt to be fair, best score on 3dmak06 from 6800xt is 2218 overclocked to the max and you can see best score below for vanilla.

Can 6800xt be unlocked or not?
 
it is pcie, they are 8 pipes yes, rivatuner does show another quad and vertex masked though but cant ublock them.
 
So basically i need throw it in the bin coz its a waste of space as a gfx card :p

never mind ill just flog it on ebay and get some money back for it :(
 
Im not fussed by the way it was a cheap card, just makes me laugh i got a oem 6800 off ebay for 75quid that leaves ti for dead with 16 unlocked pipes.
 
dont joke! i like overclocking, it makes me happy, especially if i can kill something :D I might just kill it that might be more fun than selling it :eek: :p
