From my mail addy,
Bulldog, thought this might interest you and your forum members.
Rivatuner 12.1 + SoftR9700 released!

With pride we bring to you the heavily awaited RivaTuner version 12.1 This version has the usual round of updates and improvements but the one most of you have been waiting for is if course integration SoftR9700 (this SoftR9700 patch script can turn any 128-bit R9500 into 9500PRO and any 256-bit R9500 into R9700 without soldering the resistor on the R300 GPU and without loosing warranty!). Our patch contrary to the yesterday released hacked Wizard Radeon drivers are Catalyst 3.0 compatible !

The list of updates goes on and on, so here's a small overview:
Full Detonator 41.xx - 42.xx support including the latest Detonator 42.01
Added DVC 3.0 support.
Revised NVStrap v1.3 driver for both Windows 9x and Windows 2000/XP
Added ATI RADEON 9500 / 9500PRO / 9700 / Fire GL X1 / FireGL Z1 low level support. Now RivaTuner can diagnose and overclock these graphics processors.
Added SoftR9700 patch script for Catalyst 6.200 - 6.255, which allow you to enable software locked 8 pixel pipelines on RADEON 9500 based boards and turn any 128-bit RADEON 9500 into RADEON 9500PRO and any 256-bit RADEON 9500 into RADEON 9700PRO.
Improved database format. Now the similar keys and values in the database can be described with a loop variable.
And the list goes on and on. More details can be found on Rivatuner homepage.

Wow... that will definitely bring this more into the realm of feasibility for the solder-phobic :D.
