Most Radeon X800 GTO cards can't be Unlocked - 2005/09/19 12:36
HKEPC has a review up on the HIS Radeon X800 GTO and this card uses R480 core and 1.6ns Samsung memories. However, this card cannot be unlocked from 12 to 16 pipelines using the BIOS flashing method and sadly most Radeon X800 GTO cards that are hitting the retail now cannot be unlocked. So far only Sapphire Radeon X800 GTO cards like the Ultimate and Fireblade editions using the Readeon X800 GTO˛ (R480) core can be successfully unlocked and from what we heard, Radeon X800 GTO˛ is only made exclusively for Sapphire. Don't rush out and grab a Radeon X800 GTO card because most likely you can't unlocked it. ATI has changed method of identifying and locking from 2ID to 4ID so it will be more difficult to alter the BIOS or perform hard mod. Most Radeon X800 GTO cards can't be Unlocked
