Hey everyone.
I finally saved up enough money to but myself a second hand (2 months old) x1950pro for my Skt 754 system hoping for a nice leap in performance only have it start freezing mid-play or to lose picture altogether during game sessions.
I tried removing the Catalyst drivers and using driver cleaner pro, then re-installing the latest driver from the ATI website, but to no avail.
I've tested the card with Stalker: Shadow of chernobyl, Doom 3 and Oblivion and it froze on all of them within 5 mins of play.
Do I have a duff GPU? I'm guessing yes, but please put me out of my misery with some advice (yes or no).
My current setup:
Athlon64 3200+ (@2.2Ghz)
2 x 512 meg sticks
Powercolor 256meg x1950pro (previously x800xl)
Zalman 460 watt PSU (34 amps on +12volt rails)
Cheers all.
