Hello,
I just bought a Zotac GTX 295. However there have been some problems with it.
I installed the card and 181.20 XP Drivers, and i tested it with Red Alert 3, Bioshock, 3dmark 06. In the intro videos and menus of Red Alert 3 there has been massive flickering although the in game graphics seem fine. Bioshock's loading screen has massive flickering too and again in-game graphics seem fine.(Both ingames are not completely flicker free anyway)
But in 3dmark 06, although not as much as the loading screen, there is flickering while testing. When i force V-Sync on from Nvidia control panel the flickering not completely but mostly disappears. Is this natural? Or is there a complete solution for this problem than forcing v-sync on from the control panel ?
BTW I tried running with one gpu (Disabling SLI), the flickering disappears.
There is also a heavy buzzing sound coming from the card under load.
Shall I try to return or replace the card ?
Any help would be very much appreciated,
Thnx
My Specs,
Core 2 Q9300 @ 3.0 Ghz
2 Gb Kingston DDR2-1066 Mhz Memory
Gigabyte EX38-DS5 Mobo
Zotac GTX 295
Creative X-Fi Elite
5x Seagate Hdd
