what brand is it? can you still return / RMA it? i would think its a defective card if its freezes with artifacts. did you overclock it? make sure the Power Supply is correctly hooked into it?

dunno if pixelview is name of card or a thing on the card, no aint over clocked it very pissed off with this card now , someone said it could be a memory problem on card ?, it has to be card as ive now tryed it on 2 systems an 2 monitors an both the same on both, whats RMA plz ;/ an yes i think i can still return it as its still pretty new.

return merchandice autherization. it means sending it back to the manufactuer and having them replace it. yes it could always be a memeory problem. what was the name of the card on the box?

 

[vipey^]

could it be prolink there is no name on box really but tbh it dont look a cheap card an wernt a cheap card tbh , u think taking back is best answer then ? thnx for help btw , on subject of memory problem would it still run a game ok if it was memory ?,

 

[zoltan]

yes definatly take it back. no i doubt it will run games fine for awile if it is a memory problem.
