Hey, i need some help. i like the idea of overclocking and i heard of the ati tool. It seems quite good for overclocking, but it gave me a message saying that a driver could unlock the other 4 pixel pipelines that my Radeon 9800se (128mb, 256bit) has. So i tryed and it seemed to work, but then i found some square dot things. It had made by 3D performance better, but i could never play my new games on it. I was wondering if anyone knew of something that could unlock tne pipelines. Could someone help please.

There was a 50/50 chance to get those extra pipelines working & chances have only goten worse with newer versions of those 9800se cards coming out.

If you still want to try it, you just need to install Omega drivers (http://www.omegadrivers.net/).

If you happen to fry your card in the process, you are the only person liable & do not try to make the warranty cover up for your mistakes. You have been warned.
