You can find loadsa info on these cards by Googling
Yes, but not all 9800SE cards are the same though. As a general rule of thumb, the cards with L shape memory (256-bit memory interface) will mod to a 9800 PRO. However, the cards with I shape memory are limited to a 128-bit memory interface and will only mod to the equivalent of a 9500 PRO (but with R350 core)
