From Anandtech Tech Update R420 (http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.html?i=2018)

Update April 9, 2004:

We just received confirmation that X800 Pro (Due Apr 26th) and SE will run on 12 pipelines. Radeon X800 XT, (Due May 31st) on the other hand, will run on 16 pipelines. It is important to note that all three of these chips are based on the same R420/R423 core. ATI could have an overclocker's/softmodder's dream with the X800 Pro and SE derivaties!

I wonder if the Omega Drivers would be able to soft mod the other 4 pipelines to be enabled like with the 9500->9700 Mod.
