    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    Runs everything just fine now. I know just enough about this stuff to cause myself problems I can't fix. Just the one wire was bad, marked that one off with some red tape, everything works fine now. I guess I could get a new power supply, but i JUST zip tied all those freakin wires out of the...

    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    Contacted BFG. They gave me a long list of things I've already tried. Umm, Motherboard monitor and Everest Home edition both give me my 12v rail as 2.11v.....new psu? edit: Which voltage configuration should I be using with MBM. I'm not sure which is correct and they give wildly different...

    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    So I put my Radeon 9600 pro in the rig and voila! Far Cry runs....well, everything works again. The only thing I can see that might be wrong is that the card simply will not return to its default configuration (12x1,5vp) after the Rivatuner fiasco. It says its back to that, but I KNOW it...

    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    So it turns out my roommate tried to unlock the 4 masked pipelines and the 6th vertex set via Rivatuner while he had the card in his rig. He said its been screwy since he tried it(freezing, stuttering). I checked RivaTuner, and it told me 12 pipelines and 5 vertex shaders. I tried switching...

    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    Already got the latest chipset drivers from nVidia. nothing. I tried Driver Cleaner already, nothing. The power connecter is there. Is it odd at all that during these freeze times the hard drive is never accessed? I was thinking either the rest of the system was waiting for info from...

    Is my BFG 6800OC a dud?

    I've run 3DMark03 quite a few times now and I'm getting scores in the 5500-6200 range depending on the drivers. I'm also getting right around 3100 in 3DMark05. Athlon64 3500+ (Winchester) BFG 6800OC (66.93) WD 160GB SATA 2x521MB Corsair TwinXMS PC3200 (2-2-2-5) MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum...
