I have some weird things going on with my graphics. There appears to be some odd tearing issue, if you turn side to side in a game (Americas Army) or any FPS, vertical lines tend to break up while you're turning, then return to normal when you stop. This has happend with two different Sapphire ATI 9800Pro's 256MB 8x AGP and a Nvidia GeForce 4 MX 440-SE PCI. Thanks to newegg.com for fast and awesome RMA's!! I'm going to get the Asus ATI 9800 Pro 256 as soon as i get my RMA refund back from newegg.



This is my system spec's:

Asus A7N8Xv2.0 non deluxe 400FSB Motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ "Barton" OC'ed 182FSB @ 2.00Ghz :(
Western Digital 80 Gig 8 Meg Buffer 7200 RPM IDE
GEIL Golden Dragon 512MB Dual Channel Kit PC-3200 DDR 400 @ 2-3-3-5 2.8 Volts
Thermaltake Xaser 3 Lanfire with Thermaltake Silent Purepower 420 PSU
CTX PL7 17` CRT Monitor @ 85 HZ

I have tried using the stock clock settings and have found nothing different with the video card issue. Please, any help on this would be great. I have used different refresh rates also, nothing :(
 
Have you done all the usual E>G turned fastwrites off turned VPU recovery off.What version of the catalyst drivers are you using?
Have you got vsync on or off?
 
Sounds like vsync's off to me? Maybe it's more serious than that, but you might want to make sure vsync is off.
 
Ok, i'll try to turn of the AGP fastwrite off if the new Asus does it, and i know the Vsync was off, Vsync is evil lol. I tried using the 4.3 catalysts and the Omega Drivers. Its just stresses me that it's doing this, but why would the AGP Fastwrite cause this?? I was getting ok FPS while playing, but that Saphhire didnt impress me. It was getting way to hot for my likes, and was slowing the FPS down in my games. But thats about it, thanks for your time to reply to my issue guys!!
