Ich lag mit meiner Gigabyte und der nur VP-modbaren MSI wohl ganz gut im Schnitt. Was mich auch freut: Bisher sind noch keine ernsthaften Probleme aufgetreten. Die MSI ließ sich ohne Probleme wieder von 16 auf 8 Pipes bringen (bei 6vps) und die Gigabyte läuft fröhlich mit 16x1,6vp weiter.

"Thanks a lot for you wish to help, guys. But this feature testing is already finished, so please stop sending me beta testing requests. I've selected about 15 users with different systems, and it is more than enough for closed internal beta testing. Most of them already reported the results, and the current statistics is:
- 2 absolutely unmoddable 6800s. Major artifacts on both of them in 16x1,6vp. The tester just tried to enable both pixel and vertex units simultaneously, so there is a possibility that they are partially moddable, but anyway I treat them as unmoddable because he has not tried to enable units separately.
- 4 absolutely moddable boards. One of them is my MSI NX6800 16x1,5vp engineering sample, which can work in 16x1,6vp after modding. The second is ChrisRay's 6800NU reference sample, which can work in 16x1,6vp too. The third is one of those fake 6800s, humppa76's serial Gigabyte 6800 with passive cooling, which was 8x1,4vp by default. It seems to work fine in 16x1,6vp too. The fourth is majetrix's ASUS V9999GE, which also works in 16x1,6vp.
- 9 partially moddable boards. 8 of them are 6800NUs with one damaged quad, but fully functional 6th vertex unit, so they work fine in 12x1,6vp mode. The last is 6800LE, which has 2 damaged quads, but both locked vertex processors seem to work fine too. So it works in 8x1,6vp configuration.
Reports from two more testers are still on the way. First I declared that this option will be added to RT if we'll see at least one sample, which can work trouble free after enabling hardware masked units. But even with this statistics, it is more then enough for me to see that an ability to enable hardware locked units really worth adding it to RT. So please simply wait for 15.2 launch, which is scheduled on 4th of October. Then we'll collect more precise global statistics with your help."
