NV4x softmodding boom continues. Ability to enable hardware masked units with RC15.2!

On my leadtek 400tdh it seems to do 12 and 6 after the hardmod. I took it to 16 (artifacted) and back to 12 and so far haven't noticed any stability problems. The quick benchmarks in cs source I was running didn't show any performance increase over 12, 5.

Although my card o/c's to 410/900 and beyond when I cool it with extra cooling so I'm still happy ;-).

 

My Leadtek Winfast A400TDH softmodded successfully without artifacts or lock-ups. I have OC it to 400/900 with no problems, but going beyond that caused lock-ups and rendering errors.

I purchased the BFG 6800 OC 128 sn:"D33058" and it has no problems enabling it's pipelines or vertex units with rivatuner 15.2.

Unfortunately my 6th vertex unit is ruined, but my other 4 pipelines seem to be performing flawlessly. (16x1,5vp) Gives me a good performance gain.
