TIA Ben The 9500 Pro already has 8 pipelines enable so you don't need to do any work on it, and my 9500 Pro could easily be overclocked! I even got to 9700 Pro levels, but ... with only 128bits memory bus it's not much forward.oh well! |

Ive flashed a Voodoo3 and a Geforce 2 successfully but I bios flashed a Sapphire 9100 last year and that went wrong so Im wary of flashing another ATI card. |
