I understand the mobilty x1600 has 12 pipes. Running ATITool .25 B 14 and several other variations and installing the latest Omega driver 38291, It still shows only 4 pipes. And the max core and mem speed are off on the setting page.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions.
I'm wondering if this is possibly a defective video card from HP.
Thanks,

Oh boy - I just found the thread "X1600 Pro 4 pipelines activated" and it mentioned the x1000 series doesn't per say have 16 but multiple shaders per pipe. I guess. Warlock stepped in here and explained it and I'm not going to argue with him. This guy knows what he's talking about.
But I'm bullheaded and can't help but wonder why ALL the reviews I've read about the mobility x1600 say it has 12 pipes. They didn't clairify 4 pipes were really 4 x 3 ea = 12.
But Warlock said and that carries a lot of weight with me. So I guess that will have to do.
