I don't know why I didn't post this earlier oOo: Anyway, if there are any Radeon 9500 (the non-pro card) or 9800se owners out there you should try out the softmodded drivers from http://softmod.ocfaq.com/ It's a bit hit and miss in that only some cards are able to softmod, but if you're one of the lucky ones your 9500 will perform like a 9700, and your 9800se will perform like a 9800/9800pro. More details here: http://softmod.ocfaq.com/faq.php

Ok, i tried many "tweaks" and the results are in. I gotta hand it to Mr.Buttocks for digging up this tweak for us 9500 card users. I d/loaded 3DMark03 and ran some tests. Here are the results:

.......................BEFORE.............AFTER

3DMark03 :.......2919.................4413
Time Demo:......24.6fps.............35.8fps


May not be Earth shattering news but it's the best increase to date for my system.
