Where are the other pipelines

[dekard]

I cannot find the extra pipelines in my evga 6800 PCI with 256 mb.
I have used riva tuner and followed the instructions at guru3d and no luck.
under rivatuner it says 12x1.


Searched everywhere and cant find.

specs:
A8N SLI
AMD 64 3000
6800 (single mode)
XP Pro
raptor HD
kingmax ddr500

Only the 6800 vanilla AGP has unlockable pipelines. PCI-express versions use a different core I think, but anyway you can't unlock them.

If you are using an SLI board, you are using a PCI Express 6800 nu which doesn't have unlockable pipelines. Only the AGP model did.

I believe PCI-e 6800 is based on the NV41 core which is native 12 pipes.
