NCC10281982B Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 you guys totally crack me up. The question is: what app will correctly tell me the temps/clock speeds of my card (Yes gpuz gives me some info) ; and perhaps **let me o/c itbased on king's info, I have updated my drivers recently. ** Reva tuner and other apps have given me driver errors, I suppose that is the price of being an early(or somewhat early) adopter. Yes I can go back to XP pro but frankly the thought of doing that is painful. Should I try my 7900 GT? 9539 in 3dmark 06 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_cow Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 i was just playing crysis on ultra high with the dx10 xp hack and its unplayable unless you turn down the sharders. it looks just a little better on everything with the only big difference is ultra high sharder is HDR lighting. i cant see anything else that changed. 1440x900 is playable but HDR isnt even at 800x600 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capo Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Running Crysis on the system in my sig I can run everything maxxed out (on XP) on 1680 by 1050 fine - it only slows down if I go up to 8x AA. I have not yet tried the Ultra High hack for XP but I'd imagine I would see some slow-down. I'm curious how it would do on Ultra High with two of the 8800 GTS G92 in SLI - hopefully I'll get my 2nd card in a few months.

NCC10281982B Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 The performance has gotten worse. I think I'm seeing artifacts during the 'core' map, however i'm not sure because of the lighting. I'm going to format the c: drive and reinstall everything pretty soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 That's really weird.... does it do the same with the 7900GT (although it will be a pain with the drivers and such, it's worth a shot)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC10281982B Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 I have not tried swapping the vid cards yet. I hope I can still RMA if I have too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
