I just preordered a new GPU btw, x1950xtx.
Core duo 6700
gigabyte dq6
1gb corsair ram
10k rpm 16mb cache WD raptor HDD
geforce 7900gt gainward golden sample 512mb.
I mean i can play every game on maxed out including oblivion but with EQ2 i come into the game and get graphics corruption on the game Every game but EQ2 and B&W2 is working fine but it's annoing
I've tried different and the newest drivers but they just seem to make performance worse, i can run CSS at 236fps in game maxed out so nothings wrong with any of the hardware.
I'm just stuck? Do i wait for EQ2 to be patched or new drivers?

that is one tight pc...
could you help me out with something tho?
how do you pick your ram speed, when you want to match mhz with your pc, if you know you'll overclock both...
then your way off the map once your oc is done...
7950 is way better than x1950xtx btw

Its 800mhz corsair ram, cost alot so i brought 1gb ram to upgrade later on when i need 2gb.
Also Gamespot did a test of x1950 crossfire vs 7900gtx SLI and the crossfire beat it hands down, uses gddr4 now. I don't like geforce anyways lol so the 7950 dont bother me Altho im guessing the x1950xtx came pretty close or even beat the 7950 seeing how much it beat the other card by

EQ2 one isnt as bad i just get weird colours and then when i exit the game my res just keeps going to reset a million times till reset.
It only happens on garys mod,EQ2 and B&W2 so far no other games r effected.

Hi there try posting this in the tech forum of EQ2 .I noticed a friend of mine also had a similar issue with the new conroe on some games.I think its so new that some games are not optimized for them yet.
On a side note you really should not have such a nice rig with just 1gb.With the new vista coming out people are going for 2gb as minimum and some going for 3 or 4gb!
Well i've preordered some corsair xms2 dominator ram. Really expensive so i didnt wanna waste lots of money on the first bit of ram i got
£470 here 896.070 USD

That looks like that may even be a hardware issue.
I myself had an eVGA 7900gt CO 256mb, that was having trouble with EQ2 and several other new games. Getting red and blue pixels, tearing, and artifacts.
I ended up having to RMA the card and got a replacement upgraded card, apparently they weren't designed well enough originally.
You sound like you know what you're talkin about, and may even be in the same boat as me, try out one of your old video cards or a friends and see if those work fine, then you can be sure it's a GPU problem. Also, check out their support, contact them and see if it's a known issue. Never heard of Gainward golden sample, heh.
btw, my comp is an AMD 4400+ 1mb L2 cache, 2 gigs OCZ RAM, 7200 16mb cache WD Caviar, and the new video card
It's not a hardware issue.
In most games they run fine! I can run Oblivion on maxed out with great FPS, i can run CSS maxed out with 236 FPS and many other games.
ONly a few games that dont support dual cores im having problems with

Unfortunate I guess, my processor is dual core and never had problems, check out the intel site and see if there are any drivers available?
Just tossin ideas out there, computers are ugly.
