Try with Rivatuner and see how many pixel pipelines and vertex shaders it will allow you to unlock.

There were some XTs that would not unlock, but this may depend on GPU version.

Try also GPU-Z to get info of your card.

i got rivatuner and gpu-z i have no idea how to use them i did go into the graphics card info screen and it has 8 pixel and 4 vertex, not sure how to use the program to overclock.also im on the pixel shader overclock screen and its on my current version of 1.3 can i overclock to version 2.0 and also with the vertex shader its on version 1.1 and want to overclock to version 2.0,do you think it would be safe to use the newer versions? thanks...

There are several rivatuner guides on the net, try search. GPU-Z should indicate which version your GPU core is, and likely provide some idea, together with the info in other links, what the possibilities are for overclock. Vertex & Pixel shader versions can not be 'unlocked'. But you might be able to unlock some pixel pipelines and vertex shaders. By that you will get better performance out of the card. This combined with a safe overclock of the GPU core and VGA RAM will show improvement in graphic benchmarks and games.
