oh you were talking about modding the 12 pipe card x800pro into a 16 pipe card...i see now
i thought he was saying the gigabyte vivo card came with 16 pipes already enabled by default

I think i recall the benches your refering to.fastcoke11 said:Especially the newest one, that puts the 6800u 50 fps above the xt in doom 3, when it's locked to 60 fps. So those fps above 100 don't matter...
Vermicious Knid said:I think i recall the benches your refering to.
Your forgetting one of the main reasons for benchmarking: COMPARISON
IIRC those are AVERAGE fps, they do bear some relevance even though the game is capped at 60.
If one card averages 150 its a hell of a lot less likely to dip below that 60fps mark then one thats averaging 'only' 100fps, which equals better/smoother/seemless gameplay and/or the abillity to turn on more eyecandy.
To follow your line of logic, ALL benchmarking would be useless to anyone who games with vsync on (why bother having a card that averages 100fps if your only gonna see 60,72,whatever)

truffle00 said:He was talking about the VIVO...there are 3 cards, the X800 Pro, the X800 Pro VIVO, and the X800XT PE (which also happens to be a VIVO model). The X800 Pro VIVOs tend to come with 1.6 ns RAM (same as XT PE) and have more or less a 100% success rate in being modded to 16 pipelines. You'll find many people modding their X800 Pro VIVOs into XT PEs, with speeds that approach or reach those of the XT PE. Gigabyte seems to have taken the liberty of modding for its customers, and although it is not advertised, their X800 Pro VIVOs come with 16 pipelines enabled out of the box. No warranty voiding needs to be done.
