Hey guys

Got my MSI 6950 from here last week, excellent card so far!

Runs Dirt 3 and Deus Ex amazingly well, only two games I have played with it so far!

Tonight I benchmarked using Heaven, and had loads of artifacts!

Is it a possible RMA?

Have a look at the video for me please!

Thanks

Something doesn't look right to me, though at least it doesn't do this in games. Did the card come pre-overclocked, or have you overclocked it yourself?
 
I had a gtx480 soc that did that. Backed off to standard clocks it was fine so returned it faulty and got a refund..
 
Heaven is pretty buggy in my experience and I have seen this behaviour on 2.1 and 2.5. I usually run 2.0 if I do as it seems to not have any of the min FPS or artifact glitches that I see in other versions. I would give it a shot: http://downloads.guru3d.com/Unigine-Heaven-DirectX-11-benchmark-2.0-download-2414.html

Truth.

Heaven, whilst good, isn't amazing. And its experience varies. Like you say, everything else runs beautifully yet this buggers.

Try others like Furmark and 3D Mark 11 and get back to us.

If they run fine maybe it's a dodgy install of Heaven.
