    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    Heads up, there are a few topics on the BF3 support forum, if everyone with the issue can go to this link and click "I have this problem" we can hopefully turn a few heads at Nvidia/DICE. http://getsatisfaction.com/battlefield3/topics/artifacts-1f24dy You'll need to login to BattleLog @ the...

    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    Thats assuming Nvidia has identified what is going on.... Its a weird issue that isn't happening to all 460/560 cards, but only some, and seems to be linked to i5/i7 chips as well (again, no hard and fast rule). Havn't seen any official recognition of it from Nvidia or EA, which is a...

    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    But if it was an GPU core OC or Vcore issue (ie one too high/too low), wouldn't the issue occur on pretty much all the maps since they all push GPU usage to ~100%? I could see the OC on GPU memory being an issue that would cause such issues, since GPU memory doesn't get slaughtered on the...

    NVIDIA Asking GeForce Owners To Send Cards In For Examination

    Good to hear the BF3 specific issues are being addressed, anyone see if they've directly acknowledged the artifacting issue that's hitting a bunch of the 460/560 cards?

    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    Considering the obvious texture implications of the much larger maps, it definitely could be this issue. The only problem is there are tons of people running 768MB cards and are fine on High/Ultra. I know of other identical cards (same batch even) that run perfectly with a quad-core Q6300. I'm...

    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    Scratch that solution. While going from ultra/high to medium would stop the artifacting, it would then later reoccur on medium. Then switching from medium to low would get rid of the artificating for a while as well. I'm starting to thinks its got something to do with memory perhaps.

    Solved? BF3 Artifacting - GTX 560 - Mesh Quality

    Hey all, so over the past few days I've been getting some nasty artifacting in BF3 (as many people have been encountering). Odd thing is, that it only happens on large maps (Firestorm, etc); and only after a few rounds. It also doesn't happen in any other games, OCCT, or Furmark (even with...

    4870 HDMI output issue

    SOLVED: Well, its more of a workaround than a real solution. What I ended up doing was taking someone's EDID edited LCD device driver, and updating my LCD TV's driver with that one. Sure, my TV registers as a Samsung now, but at least the HDMI sound is working. EDID driver and idea came...

    4870 HDMI output issue

    Few answers: -HDMI audio working fine; if I set it as 'Primary Device' I can see things being played; plus it was working fine before I swapped TVs. Im still set on it being an EDID issue of sorts as the TV is telling the computer that its a DVI monitor; and showing up as such in CCC...

    4870 HDMI output issue

    I feel like its an EDID issue similar to the issue some people have with HDMI through a stereo reciever. Ive tried a few things, but I think I need a way to edit the EDID (or just disable it) so CCC defaults back to HDMI output (with sound).

    4870 HDMI output issue

    The TV does HDMI sounds fine on my XBOX360 (through both HDMI ports) If only there is a way to tell Catalyst Control Centre that the attached device is not a DVI display, but a HDMI HDTV

    4870 HDMI output issue

    I've tried both of the HDMI ports on the TV. Both are labelled as "HDMI / DVI" and share 1 set of RCA inputs for sound if using DVI to HDMI connection. I dont want to use the RCA inputs for sound from my PC, Im looking to keep the audio coming over HDMI. And no, I cant find any...

    4870 HDMI output issue

    Hey all, This is a different issue than your usual "I can't get sound out of my radeon's HDMI output". I have a HD4870 hooked up to LCD TV via HDMI. All was well and it was working fine and dandy. Today I got a new LCD TV (A 32" RCA to be exact) and now there is no sound. I think the issue...

    WD Passport External: Cannot Copy large files?

    Hey all, So I have a WD USB2 Passport 250GB (2.5" SATA) 2MB cache (IIRC) FAT32 formatted on WinXP32. And on the drive I have more than 100GB free. When I try and copy any large files (seems like any over ~2GB), it tells me I have inadequate free space on the drive. Now if I copy 10GB worth of...

    Sooo I guess this is bad

    Again guys.....THINK before you post. ;) If he takes a screenshot and we all see it, then its the video card and NOT the monitor. Id say its overheating and artifacting pretty bad.

    zalman (vf900) or arctic cooling (accelero X2) ?

    VF900 dropped my load temps from ~70C to 50's. Idle went from 44 to 37C Thing is silent and comes with RAM sinks that are more than able to get the job done. Plus, it looks sleek

    Yikes...pirated Display Eater = doom?

    As the above poster mentioned, please return to 5th grade Basically, its a program that will record your whats happening on your computer. But if you try to install the program with a pirated key, it will delete your home file.

    Will there be Direct X 10 AGP cards?

    Chances are we'll see an AGP DX10, only because there is such a huge amount of people who still have AGP. And don't say the AGP era cpus (S939 etc) can't take advantage of a good card, thats a useless and invalid argument.

    Is it possible to attach an xbox to a 7900gs?

    Yea, Im fairly sure they didn't make any VIVO 7900GS's. (From a quick scan of newegg) So basically you are plugging your Xbox into the Video-OUT on your video card. You are going to need to either get a Video Capture card, or just plug your xbox into the TV directly. If the TV itself has PIP...

    Videocard or Monitor Problems...

    Use the tried and true method to determine: Take a screenshot on your computer when the problem is happening; then, send it to someone else. If they see the problem, its video card. If not, its monitor.

    Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars Screenshots

    Only lasers that there should be as Tesla coils! I was a huge RA/RA2 fan, as well as Generals and Z:H. Basically a C&C lover. While Generals was different that the rest of the series, it was by no means bad.

    Quite case?

    Thanks for the backup on the spelling thing JinxyBoi. Spelled really is a terrible american-butchery. And considering I'm Canadian (more British spellings), I think Im ok. The P-180 is a great case too, a few friends are using it and love the sound padding

    Quite case?

    Its actually spelt "Quiet" that aside, take a look at the Antec Sonata II, Solo, they are all great cases Ive owned. The Sonata in particular has been around forever and is a classic. I haven't owned any other brands, so I'm sure someone else will chime in.
