Problem with 5970....again

[bakes0310]

Im on my second 5970 and now im getting problems with this one.
The problem is that my screen seems to shake when im on internet explorer or when im playing a game.
When i scroll down on a web page it seems to get worse till it hard to read the page.

Edit: I've formatted my pc and im still getting the problem. I also tryed old and new drivers, what can i do?
Also theres a couple only very small pink dots, which i notice on a certain blue screen forum.

Sure it's not your TFT on the way out? Or a dodgy cable?

This is my second 5970 now, im seriously thinking of going back to nvidia i never had problems with them.

nVidia are always a safe bet in terms of drivers and reliability. Always done me proud.

Sorry to hear you're having problems again fella. I'm sure there are many satisfied 5000 series owners out there but it does 'seem' like there have been a fair few that have run into problems. I can understand you wanting to try something different considering the luck you've had.

Hi i remember you

Yeah its not like im a nvidia fan boy ive had the following ati cards:
9800xt (awesome card no problems)
x1900xtx (nice card no problems)
5970BE ( powerful card just faulty )

I think you'll be happy with a gtx480 re the other thread. All the best with that.

i was put off ati cards back when i got a fulty 4870x2 and i went back to nvidia
recently tho my 295 kicked the bucket and i decided to go for a 5850, im happy with my new ati card but i still dont think id ever risk another double gpu card from them

Could this problem be with overheating, cause i turned my pc for about an hour and 20-30mins later the problem happens.

What temps are you getting in the card? both cores and your VRM's, all info in GPU-Z if you didnt know (dont wanna teach you to suck eggs!)

Doesnt show the temp, i cant see it anywhere?

Should show the temps under the "Sensors" tab on the top, something like this:

I havent got all that under sensor all i got is the first two and they dont give any info?

are you sure the drivers are installed correctly? If they haven't then GPU-Z wont pick up their sensors and report the temps etc.

What does the temps read in CCC/Over ride

It doesnt?
If you mean the overdrive panel and theres a little dial, ive never seen any temp readings, its always zero?
