We Live for the One we Die for the One

Just been reading some fourms and it seems its just as easy as linking
a few bridges with conductive, paint,ect whatever ?, so you have a 16
Pipeline card :)

Iam sure ATI know this and did it on purpose who could they not know
and not know people would find out and change the card to 16 pipelines
?

Your thoughts.

Does that make the card an XT ??? or does the Xt have better ram ect ?
 
Nope, it only enables the missing/ deactivated Pipelines. The ram of the
oriiginal XT is faster, 1,6ns I think and you got no proof it will work
correctly. Aswell the XT has some aditional features. "all" you get is a
upgraded Pro. But thats okay. But you will not get a full XT, thats for
sure.
 
With a successful mod and the BIOS flashed from X800 Pro to a XT, the card's
core/mem will run at XT stock speeds. The Pro comes with 2.0ns RAM while XT
comes with 1.6ns. The XT also has a RAGE theater chip or something. I
guess it's a crap shoot right now whether a X800 Pro will mod successfully.
Only more time will tell. I guess it all depends on whether you are willing
to spend another $100 or so.
