RobCrezz said "not possible" like the rest of us. There is no way to unlock as originally asked. Sorry.

I assume its locked by the chip itself, no idea really, but there doesnt seem to be anything in the bios to alter it.

I suspect the 2 SMs in the full cluster are disabled in hardware during testing and qualification. The GTX760 essentially undergoes the same process except "half-clusters" are disabled -- I don't think they do that on the 650TI.
