I bought this X800 GTO AGP video card about a year or so ago. The card was flashed to 16 pipes. It now produces artifacts in 3D images. I don't know what to do, but maybe someone else wants to try fixing it. Flashing it back to 12 pipes might work, but nothing is guaranteed. It still displays an image on the monitor and powers up. I want $13 shipped (US only) for the card. Maybe the heat sink/fan is worth that to someone. Thanks for looking.

Did you remove the HS and apply Arctic Ceramique/Silver and re-seat the HS?

Yes. I checked temperatures and they were good, but this was a long time ago. I don't remember the specifics.

I thought the Sapphire version couldnt get flashed to 16 pipes. From what Ive read that is. Maybe flashing it back will work. Im getting mine soon, if ya want the original BIOS, maybe I can get it too ya, up to you.
