Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Yeah, after a couple hours of Far Cry it started screwing up. The foilage on the ground as I was passing looked purple. I took it back down to stock speeds till I get a watercooling system. But before I leave it like that, I am going to try Quake 3 and see what I can get stable with that. Thanks...
I've been running a lot of taxing 3d apps and I haven't seen one artifact yet. ATI tool doesn't find any either. I think I just got pretty lucky with this board. Whats the best method to overclock and check for stability? Does anyone use the "find max" buttons on ATI tool?
Just got my x800 xt (non-pe). Getting 60 MHZ at the core and 65 on the memory. That seem really good for stock cooling, right? I mean, the PE is only 520/575, and I'm getting 560/565 on the cheaper model!! I kinda took a hit on the memory in comparison to the PE but the 40 extra Mhz on the core...
Go here and click on "Product Identification" to the left of the page. This will pop-up another window. Since you have a Sapphire card, you will probably have to follow the instructions to the left of the screen under the "Powered by ATI" section. This will help you figure out if you got sold a...
Gotcha. Thanks alot Maxx! And now I'm off to try to edumacate myself on this "yield process" and overclocking video cards. Never done this before... Thanks again for your help! :D
I guess what I am getting at is that if they are indeed the same physical card, have all the same components rated at the exact same specs, one would be an idiot or just ignorant to overclocking to spend the (currently) 150-200 more on the PE instead of the regular XT. Right?
The reason I am...
So if the PE will overclock higher than the regular XT, that means that they are physically different at the component level then, right?
Last thing I read from ATI reference AGP vs. PCI-E was that they were going to start making native PCI-E chips but release AGP versions of them via a...
It's a single player game, not like unreal or call of duty. They put multiplayer functionality in there just so they had it. Unless you plan on playing it through a couple of times, you'll probably feel gypped. Unbind F5 and play nightmare mode. Just extended your playing time a couple years.
It seems to me the only thing different is the clock settings. Does this mean that the non-PE can be OCed to the PE settings with the existing cooling solution? Possibly higher with a water block?
