9550 and pipes

[Supernak]

hi. my friend bought radeon 9550 (no money for something else XD).

now my qustion is there are pipes in 9550 that can be unlocked or he got 4 and nothing more?

no extra pipelines, sori. but you can flash this to a 9600 giving an extra kick in performance.

Or you could try overclocking it to the same speed as a 9600, if you have good cooling

Clocks
9550 = 250/200
9600 = 400/300
