    How to enable additional shaders on Radeon HD 6950

    You should have saved your OWN BIOS and used RBE utility to modify it. I had a couple scare like that, but luckily I have two cards so if one got fucked up I could always turn off that PCIe lane and boot up with the other one and then reflash it back to factory from windows.

    How to enable additional shaders on Radeon HD 6950

    ASUS 6950 DirectCU II I built my new rig with two 6950s from ASUS and managed to unlock them just fine. It some research and a little patience but it all worked out. Was getting scores around 900 points on heaven 2.5 @ 810/1000 and that jumped to 1000-1030 points unlocked at the same clocks...
