Yes. Flash yourself to the nearest best buy or CompUSA and buy a XT/XL.

J/k :) I have no idea but I have heard that only the ViVo's can do it.

I would have got an XL. But when I see it is cheaper or the same price as the Pro with 4 extra pipes, I know something is up.

Edit: Forgot the AGP XL is only an 8 piper.

Sigh;

Ok lemme explain.

X800pro 12 pipe 13u low K manufacturing process.
X800XL 16 pipe 11u regular manufacturing process.

I believe the X800XL AGP version is 16 pipes. That was a typo on ATI's sight and they since fixed it. The regular X800 will be 8 pipes.

Oh, and the XL certainly does not stand for Xtra Lame. :p

11u is cheaper hardware?

.11micron is cheaper because it makes the chip physically smaller, thus using less silicon.
pro vivo=flash
pro=no flash
xl=16pipe already but VERY poor ocers.
