I'm curious if anyone with this specific Sapphire 6950 card has been able to successfully unlock the extra shaders via BIOS flashing.
I have one on order, but in viewing the lengthy thread here, I have seen two recent reports from users with this exact card that reported they were unable to flash the BIOS successfully to unlock the extra shaders no matter which method they tried. (users RedLine888 and NameonPrime.)
I'm curious to know if anyone with that card has been able to unlock the extra shaders so I know whether I should even bother attempting it and risk bricking the card (it does not have dual BIOSes like the reference model).
Thanks.
