Random lockups with my 8800GTX in UT3

[jubei]

Hey guys,

My friend was playing UT3 on my new rig earlier and it looked proper nice with maxxed up detail on 1900x1200. Thing is, every so often it would lock up for about 5 seconds and then just carry on again for ages.

Does this sound like a graphics card issue or something else? always carried on again fine and ran nice and smooth aswell, just these random lockups every now and then.

its an OcUK 8800GTX, running with a Q6600, 4 gig ram, vista 64

Ah seems like a common issue then and not a dodgy card in my system, makes me feel a bit better
