My X1800XT is acting weird. When im playing games it randomly here and there does like a full screen flicker of black and white shit. Its really fast though; blink of an eye kinda thing, but its driving me nuts. Im using Windows X64 with 5.12 64bit drivers and using a ASUS A8R-MVP.I get no artifacts just that flicker. Im wondering if its windows x64 bit or is it the card doing that. Its liquid cooled so im not sure its heat. When i touch the card its luke warm after games. Anyone else having this problem???
 
help. this shit is crazy and i want to know if its just windows x64 doing this. maybe driver issues. I saw on the release notes they fixed that problem with ruby demo. it did that they said. Its tha checkerd pattern. I just dont want to be causing damage to it. i cant afford it =/

anyone know
 
There are a couple people around with x1800xl's and xt's but not many you might have to wait for a response.

Simple things like uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers your monitor profiles is it an lcd or crt? etc etc provide more info for people.
 
i figured it. i checked my liquid cooling. i didnt have it seating right. u have to take off these 2 brackets. thank god i caught it in time. I feel like such a moron. Thats such a dumb mistake.
Now my X1800XT idles at 34C and 38-40C on load overclock to 700/800.
Its perfect now.
