i know this is kind of old news, but the hitching in half life 2 is bothering me. i have a radeon 9600pro, any my roommate has a 9600xt. i have the hitching problem and he doesnt. my smartgart is turned off and his is turned on. can anyone else relate to this? it seems that when the game hitches, its hitting the hd pretty hard, which could indicate texture loading. and if fast write and other smartgart features are disabled, it could make things really slow. or so my logic goes.
by the way, my motherboard is an asus a7v333, which only supports 4x agp, while his supports 8x, which could be another possibility.
