Hey, anyone here have any idea where I would get started if I wanted to hack the BIOS on my videocard to unlock a couple of extra pipelines? If anyone knows where a pre-hacked bios for a Powercolor x850 pro is, please post a link, but if not any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I just googled "Bios for a Powercolor x850 pro and came up with this link: Powercolor x850 Pro

Hope it gets you closer to your goal.

Try 'Rivatuner'. I have my 6800 unlocked from 12 to 16 pipes, 5 to 6 vertex shaders, and clocked to GT. oh yeah!!!

Rivatuner is limited to Nvidia cards.

I thought that it worked on ATi too, even though it's primarily only for nVidia?

Oh. Out of date info on my part. I'll eat my words and try it out, thanks (although I don't think a softmod will work, but it is worth a try)
