I play almost everything with v-sync on. Which reminds me that I've had this card for about an year and a half now and I don't remember experiencing this up to a certain point. Is it possible that AMD changed something with the drivers to make the card run much hotter when certain effects are...

So here is the thing: Some games tend to make my video card really hot, at which point it starts switching the core clock back and forth between 860 and 600 MHz (I have the Sapphire Vapor-X edition). As a result the temp doesn't really drop at all, however the framerate does - very noticeably...

dude..... "It's good to know, that this driver is aimed at developers only"

You do understand, that if an article in knol contradicts with the rest of the "public" opinion over the net it just won't cut it, right?

"This one did not take long: We already knew that Nvidia is working on a CUDA version for x86 CPUs, but said it would leave a modification for ATI GPUs to others." http://www.tomshardware.com/news/nvidia-physx-ati,5764.html It's legal than...

I bought a 512mb Sapphire HD3850 last week. Without any additional tweaking, works on HD3870 freqs, both for core and for mem. No overheating, no artifacts, nothing, and that is on 350W PSU, which I still find it a little hard to believe myself... I'd say you'll make a great deal with such a...

it means that there are separate core & shader clocks this time around, and that the shader clock is faster with... what? was it 40%, or am I making it up? anyway it's faster than the core :))

The X1600Pro core won't overclock more than 621 either. I think it's some limitation on RV5x0 cores in general.

mb with am2 socket (something with nforce 550 chipset) by gigabyte or asus (80$) amd athlon64 x2 4200+ (85$) 2 x 1gb ddr2 800mhz ram (80$) sapphire radeon x1950 gt/pro with 256/512mb ddr3 ram (135-160$) case & psu to ur taste about 400$ altogether

Is there ANY way I can run this card on nForce4? I know I need native CF support, but isn't there some workaround?

And this comes from the same guys, who spent 107 000$ to examine the sexual habits of the japanese quail, in laboratory-based conditions. They should be worrying about their own mental health...

dude there's no way those are real :) i've had 9600 and now i'm on 1600pro and i'm doing 30+ fps on f.e.a.r. with high detail & 2xaa/4xaf on - this can't happen with 9600 also what the hell is cs? u mean like the first counter strike?!

Try Fahrenheit - you'll like it ;) Other than that - I really can't think of anything... (It's known as Indigo Prophecy in the US btw)

ok, so it seems you bought the same card (sorts of) for the same reasons I did. I however find it performing pretty well for its price. I'm running it on 621core/423mem (yup, ddr2 can't go much higher than that) - it's the 512mb pci-e version to ur questions: it's either the ati tool, or it's...
