It's the most popular 6800NU here. A lot of people have had success flashing it to 16 pipelines, but such "data" is useless, since all brands have an equal opportunity for unlocking. It will be a great replacement for that 9600 though.

I've been using one since half life 2 launched and I love it.

I can unlock mine to 16 pipes, though in my case it kills the stability with daily crashes. So, i went back to 12 pipes and the card simply kicks booty. Its a good oc'er and beast of a card. I'm very, very happy with mine.

Especially since I only paid $250 for mine on sale. At the time it was a wonderful deal.

Very happy with mine and you don't need to "flash" to 16-pipes, you just use RivaTuner and it is done in software not making any permanent changes to the card.
