Yup, it's more of a bios change.
All that happens is you upgrade the bios on the 9700 and it opens a feature up for it to act more like a 9800.. I'll see if i can find a link for ya. |

Hey vicious? if you can or anybody,please find me a link that will show me how to do the bios change to 9800,I'm sure you can ,if you can take a 9500 to a 9800,I would assume that you could take a 9700 to a 9800mthis card does not overclock that well.it does about 350-350 and thats about it maybe a little more,just getting to 9800 would be cool,thanks in advance.

the 9800 is a total diff core than the 9700 you can't flash the bios. all softmodding does is allows the 9700-9500's core to use paths that were designed for the 9800 to take advantge from...
