Got me new X1900XT up and running this evening and so far I'm quite impressed. I'm obviously using the drivers on the supplied disc and I've tried COD2 and FEAR. My old X1800XL would struggle in COD2, but this card runs so well, I went into the options to check if I was set to DX7, but it was still DX9! with: 1280 x 1024, 2 xAA, 8 x AF, everything on in the game options incuding shadows and soft smoke, it doesn't seem to drop below 45 fps (thats when I actually looked at fraps).
FEAR would appear to run a lot better also roughly the same settings in game, but the framerate is more up and down and it still "staggers" from time to time, but I think this is down to the game rather than setup/drivers.
I also get 10557 in "05", but its bombs out in "03"
I can't remember if the card is overclocked though 'cos the clocks seem a bit ambiguous, but I'm currently setting up the overcrive thingy, so when that finishes, I'll try benching again and see how I get on.
As a sidenote, Far cry runs superbly, with everything in the game menu maxed out.
