I'm having a few issues with mine:

(1) Quake 4: Transparent windows are no longer "transparent".
(2) Some objects in Half Life 2 are lighted in a strange manner.

Other than these two problems, it's an awesome card. I can't wait 'till Vista comes out.

Hopefully you'll see those issues resolved in a driver update.

I've not had any problems so far. My only complaint is that far-away fences in FEAR still don't seem to be AF'd properly and have a weird billinear-banding effect. It's odd.

625/2150 btw ;)

Might I suggest you guys try the "ENHANCE APPLICATION SETTING" under AF in the driver panel. I had the same effect on mine when I left it at "APPLICATION CONTROLLED" :)

i just got sli 8800gtx (bfg badboys). however, my 3dmark performance drops in sli mode. i've not quite got the o/c right yet, but surely, it shouldn't be slower in sli? is this a driver or bios issue? everything seems right in the bios.

Which 3d mark you run? If you're running 01, then the SLI overhead will kill performance unless you've got a beafy system behind it to take up the slack.
Check SLI's working properly, play games etc to verify also.

i'm running 06 at the moment. i noticed theres two sets of golden fingers i can connect the sli bridge to. is there any difference in connecting to the left or right ones?
also, i use rivatuner to o/c the card (when i had only one gtx) to 630/2000. when in sli, do i have to o/c both cards, or are they linked. i'm an sli bewn :rolleyes:

you can see below im using the right hand side sli connector

Shouldn't matter which of those you use afaik. Could try swapping over perhaps - drivers are showing you as having SLI enabled right?
Yes, riva will overclock both cards.
