this card was VERY mod-able from the factory, due to the fact that it is a R480 core, which is the X850, it was just under clocked and had only 12 of 16 pipes unlocked
i took the liberty of unlocking it to the full 16pipes, but i left it at the under clocked default speeds of (400core/980mem) so it would use less power when i wasn't gaming
when i do game, i crank it up to X850XT speeds with ATI Tool, i safely run this card with the STOCK cooler at 525core/1050mem EVERYTIME i game
this thing is STILL a beast, it is far and away the best available shader model 2.0 card out there, it still plays ALL games new and old at great frame rates on my 1440x900 widescreen monitor with almost all settings maxed, look around, this card is basically an x1800 without shader model 3.0 it blows away the x1600's and most of the nVIDIA 7600's and below
i have provided the link to the site that i used to do the bios unlock and a few websites to read over if you wish

these prices are a little rediculous than they should be, but based on the fact that this is a 16pipe card that has run flawlessly my price is fair i think
Price - $85
thx,
