Hi! I am new to this flashing bios thing. I was wondering if I made a good buy with a ati radeon x800xl aiw? Is this card moldable to xt/pe?
Is this card a vivo? Will the card be bottlenecked on my pc.P4 3.06 ghz with 1 gig of kingston mem, 450 watts ps. Thank you guys for your help!

Sorry, but i think its not moddable, because x800xl has an R430 core, x800xt and x800xt-pe has an R423.To find out if its a VIVO, just look at the bach of your card.If theres a big chip
called ATI RAGE THEATER its a VIVO.If you want to know how it looks, go to www.google.com
and search for images with "rage theater".
