Hi

My understanding is this - shaders in the HD6850 are laser cut and cannot be unlocked;.......... a pre release sample was reported to have been sent out for review with 1120 shaders intact, however these extra shaders are dealt with at ASIC [Application-Specific Integrated Circuit] level

atb (all the best)
