I presume this card is not the 9500 pro model?
If its the plain 9500 model, it should have all 8 rendering pipelines just
like the 9500 pro/9700 model (but the 9500 only uses 4 by default).
However, you can search the net to find the software modification and bios
update to the 9500 which enables the other 4 pipelines, effectively giving
you a 9500 pro.
Also, on some 9500 cards you can open the memory bus to 256-bit (it runs
at 128 bit by default) which effectively turns the card into a 9700.
Have fun...
