Sorted ;). Cheers Gareth.

Nice boost but did you notice your CPU score is a little lower on the 7.9 benchmark?. Overclock your CPU a little and rebench, try and get it closer for a more true result for yourself if you think it's worth it?.

its ok mate.

to be honest Medal of Honor Airborne seems faster on xp. avg 47fps at everything on max, at 1680x1050, single card.. this game doesn't support crossfire but it doesn't really need it..

That's pretty impressive. I can run it but I don't know at what settings as I just wanted to see what it looked like. I don't like the gun controls in comparison with the Call of Duty series but the graphics are really nice as are in Bioshock. I'll try and run it at that resolution but bear in mind I have a weaker CPU and half your RAM :(.

Your card is running that really well, especially for it being just one card :eek:.

I'll PM you my results when I re-install it again as I need to free about 400gb of data around.

Airborne gives me around 50fps on my setup, multiplayer is always a constant 60fps, never drops below.

Yep I'm at 1680x1050. Quite disappointing eh? This card has given me some troubles lately, just trying to pin it down to the actual card.
 
Oh I'm annoyed, I think this card is dying on me. Even did a dreaded Windows re-install and the card is locking up and messing me around. I was just surfing the web earlier and the graphics card conked out and the VPU recovered. I do hate it when graphics cards die :(.

Is this at stock?.

See when you got your final overclock for your card. Did you at least game for an hour or two in one session to really stress the card out for added stability?.

Run Memtest 10 passes of test 5 and 10 passes of test 8 and a CPU stress test for an hour too to eliminate them. I hope you get it sorted.
 
Memtest passed and so did Orthos (CPU). 3DMark was looping for about an hour or so, trouble is I'll start playing a game and the screen will just lock up with everything going on in the background which leads me to believe there is a problem with the card.
