So I followed the proper uninstallation procedures using DriverCleaner and Safe Mode and proceeded to install the new cat's, i chose to use control panel instead of ccc and when i restarted it claimed i have a x800GTO, when I really have an x800Pro. So I did the proper removal procedure again then reinstalled the drivers using CCC instead of CP just in case and it still claims I have an x800GTO. I have a retail Sapphire x800Pro PCI-Express card. ATI Tray Tools still says it has 12pipes active and that the core/mem speeds are right. I'm not understanding why its labeled as a GTO instead of an x800pro. Any suggestions/ideas? I was just gonna wait until the official drivers get released tomorrow and try those. Will this affect my performance or anything like that?

the gto is 12 pipes like your pro. as long as you are at pro clocks its gravy. its just reading it wrong. a x800gto2 reads as a x850pro outts the box even though its not clocked that high
 
The reason being is because the x800gto's are x800pro's underclocked by 75mhz (same cores)
 
Thanks for the replies, I figured that it wouldn't be a big deal...I already had checked all that and it was right. So now I'm gonna uninstall them again so I can use the Control Panel instead of CCC. I can't stand it...its too slow/unresponsive for me and I can completely customize for OGL and D3D seperately...thanks for the responses again guys.
