You need to try that card in another machine man.

Just replaced the motherboard and cpu... it's in another machine!

none of that works for his problem I know I have tried to enable the pixel shadder on 4 of the cards and all are the same out come he has no problem ocing its artifacts he is getten.

enermax eg651p-v is what I use it also by tomshardware got a great outcome on the stress test it was the 2nd best in the test.

specks

I'm just going to throw this out there, but he had a Radeon 7000 before...Did you completely uninstall all of the ATI drivers then put the card in and install the nVidia drivers? A lot of times you'll get problems...even if you go from an older nVidia card to a newer one without clearing those drivers off before installing it.

Dude I have two of these cards and every one has the same problem I have never owned a ati its not the drivers it is the pix shadders someone enabled 16-1.6 when it should be 12 - 1.5 but 12 -1.6 works I got a snaper for ya

the one that is disable if I try on both of the cards I get the same problem he has like I said before this is the 7th card I'v seen with this problem after all its only 12 pipes not 16

Iv'e checked in Smartdoctor and Rivatuner, i'm getting problems with running 12 pixel shaders and 5 Vertex....

When I drop down to 8 and 4, the card works...

I've reinstalled windows so def not a driver issue with my 7000

Now...
I've just bought a new psu running at 500w and two 12v rails both on 17a each and I still get the same problem, but not quite as bad. Does this mean and even more pwerful PSU would do it, or is it waste of time and money?

And how would I adjust the memory timings with out a bios flash of the card. Would that work, when I underclocked the ram it made no difference what so ever...

P.S. Cheers for all the help though, and have def made some progress :lol:

get nibitor this will allow you to read your current bios
http://www.mvktech.net/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,26/func,selectfolder/cat,92/page,2/
now you can edit the bios Tools select drive than ok than tools again than read into nibitor
version 2.5
now you need nvflash and a floppy
http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=896
copy the new saved bios to floppy and the nvflash and read the instruction

use my screen shot for a guide to enable and disable

Had a quick look at that but will leave alone for the mo...
Just killed a motherboard fiddling with it's bios, don't want to kill the graphics card too!

What do you think about the PSU though? I can take this one back, so I'll have to try another...

These cards use alot of power I would say not but I don't know in all 2 rails with 17a seem ok but I would at least want no lessor than 32 on a 12 volt. Wait I had a 350 with 17a with mine and had to get a 651watt 36a its ok to use the program to read your video bios it does not do a thing you have to flash the bios to actually do harm I am thinking that the vcrad had reduced the volt for protection reasons I know mine did and I flashed it to change the protection volts to 1.5 from 1.3
you can use nibitor without problems dude this does not do a thing to your cards bios this only reads the bios not flash the bios you will get a warning but that warning is incase you decide to flash it with the settings.
always save the current bios to a file in case of a error and than if a problem does happen you can use a pci video card for the need to flash the agp back to its original saved bios. I have done this operation lots of times. never have I had a issue as long as you dont over do what the card can handle

This is what I am talking about notice how mine are all 1.5 I change it for the current setting because ever time the gpu got a little to hot it change it to 1.3 even spikes can cause this and the card never changed it back Now that I think back I was having a few issuse with the lower volts

 

[T_L_T]

Had a look at NiNiTor, but don't reall know what I'm looking for.

Besides I don't have a floppy drive and I don't have A PCI card so Bios flashing is a a bad idea I think

you have msn
