Thank you for the advice and the drivers!

I’ve installed the latest Catalyst and solved all of the problem! But, haven’t fully tested yet. FEAR is just nice in max details with only short-term choppyness in ‘checkpoint’ areas.

Hey there,

Since it’s about X1950, I’ll ask some questions here,

I played FEAR, and the testing gives me the full and maxed out details, something which my 7300GT card couldn’t acheive.

But, it’s hitching in the gameplay! The framerates are very good, but I’m pretty sure it’s hitching periodically. Then later when I leave the game to the main menu, the game became extremely laggy until it’s just only 1 frames per second. I restarted the game, and to my horror, when I retested the benchmark, all of the textures are missing. The same thing actually went to the Medal of Honor where all of the models are ‘texture’less. I’ll test again the games and let you know the progress.

Is my card overheating or driver problem? I heard that Catalyst drivers are extremely problematic - some of the people chooses Omega drivers as an alternative.

[...] From what I observed, I only face problems with games and applications released prior to 2007. I had problems testing overclocked performance for F.E.A.R and 3dmark06 as they both refuse to run. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on the other hand worked equally fiendishly with this card, just as what it did with my X1950GT. [...]

HeLieD, color is entirely up to personal preference.

without overclock, it is still an X1950GT in performance.

So goldfries, you are selling your GC on lowyat now eh…. colourful gc looks ugly as its performance. You have to run it overclocked all the time, unclocked, it dont makes any difference….

who said it’s not nice? I have no problem with PCB colors. After it goes into the casing, it’s beyond sight already anyway.
