It would be nice if someone tested this "Theory" on a 500 or 6000 series or older card to see if it holds true for older architectures... 


I have a pair of 6950's unlocked in my other machine.

Some games I might see a 5% performance boost from *only* unlocking the shaders and maybe 1-2% increase with a 10% memory overclock.
Some games you get roughly a 1-2% increase from unlocking the shaders but almost a linear increase in performance with the memory clock. (Crysis being a prime example.)

When I get back from my trip, I can run some hard numbers in a week if you want, because those cards will be sold/donated/used as paper weights soon.

Thanks dude and can you us some charts too if you don't mind ?
