Flashing Radeon 9800 Non-Pro

[Spare-Flair]

I have been presented with the opportunity to buy a non-pro 9800 (also not XT) for roughly $175. I'm debating if I should go for it or not.

Can somebody link me to a guide for flashing the 9800 np to a 9800 Pro? What are the complications for doing so? What should I watch out for or what preparations should I take? Is there any reason I shouldn't buy the 9800? Thanks.

Yeah, I have no idea what the memory is on it yet. This was actually a 9700 PRO I purchased from a liquidator who ran out of stock so they offered me a 9800 PRO for $200 Canadian ~ $153 US actually.

It's still a pretty nice deal but I don't know what overclock I'd be able to get out of it. Any links to ATI pro bios's for the 9800 non-pro?
