SM 3.0 is Shader Model 3.0, which you need for DX9.0c . It makes games run nicer, and will become a standard sometime in the near future.
The GTO1 can be flashed to a x800xl or a x850xt depending on which core you get, r430 and r480 respectively. The r480 will be able to overclock the core speed alot further.
Just a side note, my x800gt is currently running a modded x850xtpe bios with speeds of 535/560 from 475/490, and stock cooling. No pipes unlocked though, still at 8/6.
