Understood. Let me know if you change your mind or counter offer.

Hey, where did you ship from ?

Another update on my issue. I just swapped out my 3007 with the 3008, and the issue is resolved. I suppose there is the probability of having 2 3007's in a row be bad, but I am doubtful. Considering that the high end cable gave some resolve, it must have something to do with the ATI card's...

Sorry for the delay in reply. I swapped out those 5970's with 5870's and returned the new cable. No problems whatsoever with the 5870's in crossfire with the old cable. I just got in another pair of Diamond 5970's and hooked up my old cable and guess what - a few random green lines, but nothing...

Flopper hit it - It appears it was the cable. I had been using the same cable from my past 3 3007's, and I guess I just never thought that the ATI's had any different signal output from the Nvidia cards. The pixel sparkling in black to gray I always got with ATI cards is gone, along with the...

Well guys, I think the issue is resolved. Let's take a poll and I will let you know what the fix was/is: A) Defective Graphics Card B) Monitor Incompatibility C) Defective Cable D) Weak PSU E) Driver Which one do you think solved this ?

I have 2 of these in CFX. I tried each card individually and swapped them out as well, but it makes no difference. That's why I thought it must be related to the monitor. Also, the problem goes away immediately if you switch to a lower, non-native resolution.

That is what I thought also, but they must have gotten a 3007HC in after the fact.

Dell was supposed to upgrade me to a 3008, but instead they sent a 3007WFP-HC. The problem is still present. I really think that this is an incompatibility between the 3007 and the ATI signal. It's definitely temperature triggered, where after benching for an hour, the problem is gone.

Ok, I have a 3008 on the way, and we will see what piece of hardware is the culprit.

Already tried the cable swap, same issue. I have warranty on the monitor so I think I will get another on the way.

I'm having the same problem with my 5970's and a Dell 3007WFP. Still looking for a solution. I have tried the cards separately and they bench out fine. Temps are way up there after benching as well and the line problem only occurs randomly, it has nothing to do with stress on the GPU's.

I'm getting temps around 90 to 95 after benching, on the upper card. I think it's due to them being sandwiched together. What are you guys getting on temps? I am running a pair of Gigabyte HD5970's. Here is stock with the 9.12's.

I'm in.

HSF's included ?

What are you thinking pricewise shipped ?

Yes I did. The bios's since my post here are greatly improved since the first 3 or 4. Check out the Xtremesystems Official DX38BT thread in Intel hardware section.

Yes it has the newest bios. I am starting to wonder if the reason it won't hold the settings is that memory needs more voltage to run at the 9-9-9-24, and goes back to the SPD automatically. I think I will wait to talk to Corsair before jacking the voltages up though.

Update: Doesn't seem to make a difference, still stuck @ 1066.

Went in to the bios with the config jumper on, and the watchdog was already disabled. So, I enabled it, but I still can't find a Windows utility to check the speed. Intel's own Desktop utilities says 1066, but it also says it's DDR2 ?

I got the board @ TigerDirect. I will try the bios config now.

I got my Intel DX last Friday. It replaced the Asus Maximus Formula, which was a nightmare. I use Corsair XMS3 1333 and a QX6850 with it. The board is awesome, but yes the memory is expensive. One issue at this point is that the board only seems to clock the memory at the SPD programmed...

From the Newegg reviews.

I will have to read up on the Patriot brand. Looks like the Buffalo gets lousy reviews from everyone.

Ok guys, I have a X6800 and an Intel Badaxe 2 board on the way. I am a newb to DDR2. What speed and type do I need for this board. I want the best memory available for it. Also, I would be willing to buy through the forums here if you know of anyone selling any. LMK, Thanks, Randy

Hi, can you let me know what's up with the board I payed you for ?

Hey, can you let me know whats up with the board I payed you for ? I have PM'd you a couple of times.

Hey dude, you got time to post, make time to answer your PM's.

Well, that seems to work great ! BTW, My system: FX53 Asus SK8N 1GB Kingston HyperX ATI X850XTPE 4 Drive RAID 0 - WD raptors on Promise SX150 controller

Thanks for the tip, I will try it !

I am ready to put this thing up on the auction block. Screen tearing in any game. I have had it for over 6 months, and I think the bottom line is here that LCD's just don't make it in the gaming area, at least this one. If I switch back to my Viewsonic 21 CRT, the games look awesome. Any...
