Screen Jitter when using x1950 Crossfire

[lay-z-boy]

And you do it AGAIN! 3 posts instead of just one. Spammer if I ever saw one.

Seriously stop doing this, one post and edit it!!!!


As for BIOS differences, it doesn't matter what the clock changes there are, The problem is if there are suttle changes the manufactures did which makes it not work with other manufactures.

conc, calm down mate, post count means **** all.





its better to have 1337 posts anyway

Just for the hell of it, I pulled out a vga cable and the dvi-vga adapter from my ASUS card. Low and behold, using the vga adapter, and the vga port on my monitor, the jitter is now gone. So, the problem I am experiencing only crops its head up when I use the dvi port on my tft, strait from the dvi on the crossfire dongle. I also tested the monitor on a radeon x750 dvi connector, where again no problems were experienced, so there is defintely something wrong with the DVI output on the crossfire dongle, but at least for now using the analog VGA adaptor gives me a temporary workaround that removes the jitter...

**** sake man. shut up!

You are talking **** again.

Seriously, myself and others are getting annoyed with you comments.

Mine, and 99% of peoples cards are fine.

Mine is fine once the clocks were sorted out.

Have a few of these

Thank you immensely - glad you got there first before I got myself banned for saying something stupid in reply to him

Yeah i found that to be a temporary solution, but then i got rolling interference lines down the screen in some apps and games.

Like i said, its not a dongle problem though because on The NEC 20WGX2 DVI is perfect

Its a tough one really, your obviously not going to want to change TFT anytime soon, but i was lucky that i just happened to upgrade from the Belinea to the NEC and noticed that the judder had completly vanished with no other hardware/software changes.

Im hoping that the new Crossfire 2 resolves this issue because it will be a minefeild if i ever wanted to get a new TFT , hoping that it would be compatible with the DVI feature of Crossfire.

heh, no problem.



As for postcount, I know it means f-all, but the way he posts is spam.

Should have edited the 1st, as its behind the guy he is quoting still.

Straight after the 3rd, he posts again! http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=8052994&postcount=29

Thats 3 that could have all been rolled into one, maybe im being petty with this, but he does it in nearly every single thread, and again on MSN discussion we all think its spam.

And by the responces above I think im right...


I don't usually get annoyed by members posting, as on the whole anyone silly is banned, sometimes there are single posts that annoy me but so what, cyber-mav continues to annoy me, nearly every single post. Grrrr. Ooh I just remembered, I *could* put him on my ban list, but then you lot would have to survive his **** posts...



As for the OP glad you got it atleast partly sorted, email ATi for another DVI dongle? Or have I read your post incorrectly?

the reason i post the way i do is because i use firefox and if i see a post in a thread i want to reply to i just click on the quote button with the middle mouse button and do a reply then close that tab down. then im back in the original tab where i carry on reading further down and if i need to reply again i just use the same technique. its far easier for me than to consolidate everything into 1 big post.
if you don;t like it put my posts on your ban list so that they don;t show up. but im not breaking any rules in any way.

EDIT: My mistake, seems im talking carp, well nowt new there eh.

 

[squiffy]

surly the problem can;t be monitor related?? i mean all the monitor does is display the image, worst a monitor could do is have dead pixels or dodgely colouring or just be dead? stuttering should not be monitor related.

Ever heard of missing EDID information in the monitor? That can cause problems with certain cards/resolutions/refresh/timings. Over DVI of course.

I had similar teething troubles when I first setup my crossfire, it ran slower than a single card at first with jerkiness every now and then and mega slowdown in Oblivion. Just to get it running I had to switch slots since I hadn't a clue which card goes in which slot. I think the latest drivers are the ones that fixed it, I've got an Iiyama TFT on DVI.

EDIT: The drivers I used that fixed it I think were 7-1_xp_dd_ccc_wdm_enu_40211
