Yeah, but I'm not playing newer games LOL. COD 3 and 4 run pretty good. Thats why I was womdering about tweaks for COD

Oh yeah, 420w ps. I guess I should have bought a crappy video card LOL. I guess I figured that since I exceeded the system requirements by so much that it would have run better. Are there any tweaks to make it not so bad? Lowering the quality didnt change anything

Yeah, I figured that... blah. BTW, so far it only lags in COD. Games like oblivion seem to run fine... go figure.

So, I'd be better off RMA'ing the 6800. Lifetime warranty from BFG.

See above for MB, cant remember the ram brand. BTW, it's an AGP card. Still, I should have no problems running a 6 year old game. The 6800 ran so much smoother with high frame rates, the only reason I replaced it was because GPU temps were getting to high and I was getting all kinds of...

3.4E is the prescott version of the pent 4

Frame rates drop to 3-4 FPS even in COD UO anytime someone else is near me online. Far away is fine, capped at 99FPS. Sad part is that it was fine with my old BFG 6800GT. Am I missing some settings? Slows down even at the minimum settings in game and it shouldnt. It ran smoother with a 1.7GHZ...

I'm kind of limited since it's AGP. When it dies, I'll probably get either a BFG GeForce 7300 GT or the Radeon HD 4670. Going to be hard to find something comparable though. Dont think the 7300 is even close...

Click the pics for bigger versions :-)

The temp climbs when the animation runs, then drops when I turn it off pretty quick. Must be heat related, I know one of the fans works on the card, I'll have to check the other. And the card is clean, no dust. You can see some of the lines and blocks in this one

It's OC'd from BFG but I havent other than that. I'll check the temp right after playing a game and it hasnt changed. When I stressed it in fumark, the screen went plaid after a couple minutes. No space balls pun intended... LOL

56c/133f when running normal windows, a little hotter when playing games. When I stress test it with fumark it goes way up. Fans are working and the MB CPU temp doesnt get very hot, 24c/77f. GPU ambiant is usually 43c/109f. Again, stress testing it really shoots the temp up. I know one of the...

Same problem here. BFG 6800GT. Random lines, triangles and small blocks appear all over the screen in COD, oblivion etc. It did it before really bad, like this. Then in was working fine for awhile, now I get flashes on the screen and the blocks popping up. Video card or something else? Normal...
