It cost me about 200 euros but I bought it last year in march, the new one is a replacement because my card crashed so they sent me a new one because of the warranty Grin

I personally paid around Ģ160 for my Radeon 9500... Wink

Then I modded it to a 9700 Pro!!! Cheesy



How do you mod these cards from one series to another?  I thought with the series numbers being different (9500, 9600, 9700, 9800) that there would be different features and better technology that the lower series card would not have.  Undecided

The only mod you can do is on the 9500np.
This are the features of the different cards:
9500np: 4 pixel pipelines, 256bit or 128bit memory
9500 pro: 8 pixel pipelines, 128bit memory
9700: 8 pixel pipelines, 256bit memory
9700 pro: 8 pixel pipelines, 256bit memory but with an higher clock.
Well, this 4 cards have the same gpu, in the 9500np there are 4 hidden pipelines that can be "free", and if you have the 128bit version, you can mod it to a 9500 pro as my case, or if you have the 256bit version, you can mod it to a 9700 which with overclocking, can be a 9700 pro. This can be done by a patchscript that itīs in the rivatuner utility, using the omegadriver, or using w1zzardīs ones. Anyway, for further info you can visit this page:

the 9500 was a rebranded defective 9700, and today the 9800se is exactly the same thing (defective 9800)

it's a full R300/350 chip with 8 pipelines, but 4 pipes are disabled

depending on the memory bus (128 or 256bits) you can mod it to 9500pro or 9700/9800
