| With the right cooling , you SHOULD be able too. I can get a stock pro 506/506 without ANY heat or artifacts. BUT results will vary. Still not a bad card if its a good price. |

| you might be able to reach the same speeds as a pro, but im pretty sure you cannot unlock the extra pipelines. |

Hmmm...an AGP X800???? You can't overclock it, if it won't fit in your board.
*edit* I guess Sapphire makes an AGP version. Still, best make sure.

Get the X800XL, it only costs a little more but has 16 pipes and can run at XT speeds fairly easily.

The X800 and X800 Pro both have 12 pipes. The X800GT only has 8.
