So, I remember reading about this when I bought my 6200 for my G4, but never really looked too deeply into it.  As it turns out, the core of the Geforce 6200 is the same as the 6600, and many Windows users have used programs like Rivatuner to unlock 4 extra pixel pipelines, effectively turning their budget 6200 into a 6600 (well, sort of).

My question is this, is there a program like Rivatuner that is OS X compatible that would unlock the extra pipelines?  Or, can I swap the card to a PC, unlock it the swap it back?  I'm thinking the swapping method would require the cards ROM to be both Windows and Mac compliant, as otherwise you'd have to flash to a Windows ROM, unlock it, then flash back to a Mac rom (which I think would counteract the unlock, meaning this method wouldn't work).

Any ideas?  My Mac is on the fritz right now, and it's giving me some time to think about what may be possible....

This is assuming my card has the older core, the NV43 not the NV44..
