Ok, it's not a new Citadel Tower
But it's for sure the most strange glitch I've seen so far, it erects from
the ground vertically all the way up into the sky, have a look:

Perhaps a heat problem around the graphics card?

its a texture problem for sure. I had similar happen in Halo PC with
both a 9800 Pro and FX5900, and no, it wasn't hot in there! Scale back
texture quality.

"> its a texture problem for sure."

But of who's fault? ATI or Valve?
I'm using a Radeon 9600 Pro-128ram, with latest drivers, on XPpro sp2
Funny Peter mentioned the heat, 'cause often I have to keep the case
open with a regular fan blasting on it, otherwise it surpasses 60C easily.

Does the 9600 Pro have temp settings page in the Cat Control panel? My
9800 Pro didn't have thermal control at all. Its core was R350.

I don't recall have seen any temp settings. I don't have the regular
Catalyst drivers installed anyway. THis one is an optimized driver for
HL2, I guess you know about it.
