    Thanks for the info. I did update the BIOS when I first got the board, but I will check to see if there's a newer one.

    Strange problem when playing hi-def video + PC won't shutdown

    Hello, I'm having this strange problem. If I play hi-def content, for example an .mkv video or even a hi-def stream, my screen will go black and the computer slows down big time. I can still hear the audio but my screen goes black. If I bring up the task manager, which will visually pop up...

    Bad stuttering w/ 5870

    Well, shit... I hope not. I'm not sure how long an RMA process would take, but I'll be without a card for at least a couple weeks. I'm gonna hold off for the next driver update, if that doesn't fix the problem, I'm gonna RMA it. I took a screenshot of my 3DMark Vantage score. Does this score...
