Did anyone see the Tom's Hardware article that shows how ATI might be cheating on benchmarks? The article quotes some games developers that also point out ATI is possibly inflating benchmarks by substituting lower quality textures even when high quality textures are selected. I remember Nvidia got...

Has any one opted for the extra Valve Premier pack through Steam, or the cd, that was offered with the HL2 coupon that comes with various ATI cards? I ask because I'd like to know if they give you an additional activation key or something(after you get the premier pack) for the half life when it...

Does anyone know what cards beside the XT's and the AIW 9600 Pro have HL2? Eric

Okay, here's a weird one...of course, when presented to ATI via email, they were utterly useless.(Granted, this is the bitchly time of year for tech support as a whole, but I still expect them to at least READ my issue.) I just got an AIW 9600 Pro, and since I already have a device (my tape...

I thought I'd share the following problem/solution with the group. My display would go blank during video capture and also when using TV Player. Disabling Fast Writes solved the problem (display/settings/advanced/smartgart). My 3DMark03 score is unchanged after disabling Fast Writes. I wish I had...

Card isnt overclocked or tweaked at all, yet every so often in 3d games, the xp aquarium screensaver & occasionally windows itself, the screen will become totally corrupted, like the monitor is out of sync but in very small blocks & with large traingles swimming accross the screen also...

Good day, My husband and I are relatively skilled users, but we don't know much about hardware, especially graphics cards, so your help will be very much appreciated.

I believe your choice should be neither card as you can get a Radeon 9800 128 meg card for about 144 US dollars or an NVIDIA 5900 128 meg card for the price of the FX 5700 Ultra. regards B "RobM" wrote in message ... Hi,

Seems bizarre. When I'm doing a vid capture from a VCR, my monitor will randomly go into sleep mode and the system becomes unresponsive to keyboard or mouse input. Have to reboot. I've tried two capture programs - happened with both. I've seen reference to this problem back to 2001 but wondering...

Windows dropdown and popup menus appear partly filled in with some portions black. Moving the mouse over the selections fills them in. Applications affected include Windows Explorer, Outlook Express, & IE. The problem occurs after the monitor powers down and is re-awakened. Also as the monitor is...

Quote from CAT 3.10 release notes: "Playing the game Neverwinter Night under Windows XP with an ATI RADEONT 9600 series card installed results in the game failing to respond. The issue is already resolved and a fix will be made available in the next release of CATALYSTT." Great....so I'll have to...

What are the proper heat sinks for this card

Hi, I just installed a Saphire Radeon 9600XT in my system. I removed the old drivers, and installed the latest Catalyst drivers from ATI's website. I am now experiencing problems with the graphics card as whenever I try to play a game the computer suddenly reboots itself. The games I have tried...
