The reason the 9800SE's have only 4 pipes is because the other 4 are defective, so they cant achieve 9800pro spec, so the manufacturers disable 4 pipes and sell it as a 9800SE.

Not all the time. There are plenty of fully working 9800 chips with disabled 4 pipes. So tey are also sold as 9800se so if u unloick 4 pipes you have a fully working 9800pro /non pro
