It can be overridden by shorting some pins, there's a guide in xtreme mods section.

so the 2900 only needs the 6pin and the 8pin is redundant untill auto overclocking?
according to this you can use the 6+6 http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33891174
wow, very nice!
why didnt ati go for this from the start?
oo, they are in stock @ overclockers.co.uk

It's expensive in England! Germany is 55 euro cheaper :eek:
But they're not in stock yet...
I'd like to buy two but the 6+8 pin thing has confused me.
i can use the 6pin only but to overclock i need 6+8pin? but the link i posted above said you can use 6+6pin?
You can find it for £150 incl. in UK. OCUK is overpriced as always.
OMG...
You CAN USE it with 6+6 perfectly, but ATI Overdrive is DISABLED.
If you use 6+8, Overdrive is ENABLED.
Overdrive--> Allows you to manual overclocking in CCC. There is no auto OC O_O
ahh, hallo-ha:

While we wanted to include overclocking benchmarks, due to time constraints we didn’t get the opportunity but this is something that we will dive into separately soon. Firing up AMD GPU clock we had no problems benching at 760MHz/1800MHz DDR which actually put us slightly ahead of the HD 2900 XT in 3DMark06. Hopefully this translates over to real world gaming – we’ll have to investigate this more later.
looks like the max will be 750/1800
So who's going to be the first person to try and flash their Pro as an XT? If they are identical cards it might be possible :D
gah, im quite torn now.
Added a Abit IP-35 pro and 2* 2900 to my basket and they come to >£400 :(
if i didnt have personal stuff to worry about right now then i'd press buy.
