I am sure enthusiasts are familiar with the term "soft-modding". The days (of turning 9800SE into 9800Pro; 6800NU into 6800GT) are back! This time round, the spotlight is on the GeForce 9 series, namely the 9600GSO. In this extraction of the original guide, we will show you how to softmod a 9600GSO into a 8800GTS 512MB.

No improvement in results, the card is not softmodded, it's biosmodded ... it just was renamed to 8800GTS :-/

Why would Galaxy be selling 512mb cards as 384?

I believe Massman thinks they are comparing the same card against itself.

It looks to me like they are comparing the modded 9600GSO against a real 8800GTS ;)

They do:
