So i got my new Sapphire 9500np today after class. Opened it up, ahh, what a beauty. Check the RAM on the card, Infineon 3.3ns, sweet! so i install it and decided on whether to install the regular drivers, but figured, what the heck, let's go for the gold first off! Used the newest Omega drivers, and just had it install the hack for me, reboot, check the display properties, BAM! 9800 core.
ok, so that's half the battle, load up my 3dmark2k1, no checkerboards! ahhh, feels good to catch a break for a change I haven't tried overclocking it yet. My 3dmark score is rather low, but i have crap for a motherboard and only pc-133 ram, so it's holding me back for sure. only scored 11k marks. my roommate has a 9700pro and he got 13k, so i think i can catch him with a little o'clocking and maybe a mobo/ddr ram upgrade
Anyhow, wanted to rejoice and let you guys know another softmod working. BTW, if anyone wants to order one, i got mine from allstarshop.com. Cost me $135 after shipping, so not a bad bargain for a kick *** card
