Hi All,
I have just got my Point of View 7800 GTX 512MB card and am a little annoyed. I went for the 512MB version for a number of reasons - one of which was the fact that it had a good quiet cooler on it.
Everythingseems to be fine with the card as it runs games and 3D mark without any problems but it gives off a squeal wihich increases and decreases but is always there.
Now the card looks like its just a refrence design as the sticker on the fan doesn't even say Point of View just Nvidia. Can anyone who has a 7800 GTX 512MB tell me if there card makes this noise?
If a remove the PCI Express power lead from the card then the noise goes away. I am worried that I have a dodgey card. The card is part of a brand new build and is powered by a Hiper 580 modular PSU.
Any opinions would be great.
Also when I play Age of Empires III and set the Shader Quality to very high the screen goes black and white and only goes back to colour when I change Shader Quality to high
