SubZeroGTS Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 just a heads up for those who are getting these cards, or already have them. apparently there's a laundry list of bugs/problems with the 8800 series cards and various games (see nvidia/nvnews forums). my own problems have been with framerate drops and stuttering in UT2004 and according to the nvidia/nvnews forums, this happens in all the Unreal 2-engined games. the stuttering problem allegedly is fixed in Vista, though i haven't been able to test that yet.

HITandRUN Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Got a link to this? I had some problems with it wen I first bought this card but than it stopped with the new drivers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
killagorilla187 Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Ive played many hours on UT2K with the 8800 and no problems here(I always run the latest drivers tho). I've had my card since Nov. 06 as well. I run at 86fps because that is the online fps cap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

red930 Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 here's one i had bookmarked: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=82074 Seems like the thread hasn't been updated very recently, I've spent a good deal of time playing both Oblivion and COC3 without any problems. In fact, I don't think I ever had any issues at all since they released their second driver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
