Hey i just bought and installed this Powercolor x850pro. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...18#DetailSpecs Its amazing compared to my old 9800pro. one questions tho. i hear it has the same core as the x850xt which runs 16 pipes. does anybody know how to unlock the extra 4 pipes?

actually it's an x800xt pe core. IF it's a VIVO, if not, then it's a standard x800pro
