advice needed

[evulboo]

Hey all, im after some advice after getting my new system.

lets start with the spec:

6600 @ 3.4 auto v (34c)
4gb giel ull @ 4.4.4.12 865 2.1v
bfg OC 8800gtx @ stock (63c underload)
asus p5n32-e sli
OCZ GameXStream 600w
antec 900
2x 19" screens (thinking of selling and getting a 24" ws)

Im running vista 64 and score 11240 in 3dmark 06, is this ok?

Compare URL: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=2512776

In test 2 (2 lights) canyon test and the snow test, i can see some sort of corruption, like really long thin triangles shooting across the screen. Also see this when playing wow. is this down to vista, driver issue or is my card borked?

ive tried latest offical drivers and latest beta drivers.

-------------

When i set my drivers up for gaming is it best for me to do application controlled or should i force aa/af on in the nvidia control panel?


Thx Boo

Your 3DMark score is fine, but those triangles are bad news

It looks like the card can't handle the factory overclock, so you'll probably need to rma it. You could try reducing the clocks a bit, and see if the problem goes away.

ah not so good then how much should i lower the clocks by? 20 on each or something?

 

[Sir Random]

Yeah, that should do it.

 

[evulboo]

well just tried 3dmark again with clocks lowered by 50 on each and it seems to of sorted the problem.

Whats the RMA service like with ocuk as i dont have a spare pcie card

RMA service is very good, you should have a new card in about 7-10 days, or even less, just send a webnote requesting an RMA.
