FiringSquad has an article up on unlocking 4 extra pipelines on a GeForce 6800 for a total of 16!

AGP only.

Evidently these are going for 200$ now. Would it be much of a performance increase from my current Radeon 9800 XT?

    You bet. With 16 pipes enabled, that card should rock. Its pretty awesome even with 12 pipes.

    Yeah, a vanilla 6800 stock would be better than a 9800XT. If you're able to unlock it it'd be even better. :)
