softmodding Sapphire 9500

[The Terk]

Recently purchased a new computer for my brother's wedding present and happend to get a ATI Sapphire 9500, cuz i have heard many great things
Along with these great things, i have heard of this "soft mod" to do to the card, i think requires tweaked bios for the card and drivers... but if anyone could steer me in the right direction i would grately appreciate it

Here is an article RobRich posted a link to a few days ago about this. I'm waiting on my card to get here to give this a shot. Hope it helps ya out. If you try it could you post how it works for you?

well, since no one has answered my question, i have turned to some of my buddies about this topic and have come upon the following website...
http://www.ocfaq.com/softmod/index.php
basically you install the regular ati drivers to your disk, then download the hacked drivers to a different folder, swap out a certain file, re-install drivers, click ok to the not digitally signed box, and run a fill rate test... pray that you dont get checkerboarded... cuz i did :-( still a better card than my gf3 ti200
