| 715445 | 2008-10-28 23:14:00 | Umm no single player in WARHEAD during any multiplayer its 25-27 And the usual server lag... im not too concerned about multiplayer though. The thing is dx9 for me is worse... i have no idea why so yea.... it gives me 17FPS on average. (the settings i showed above without Very High Post Processing) Well, I dont know why that would be.....crysis is a sh*te game anyway.... I havent tried DX9 in Vista, i dont think it would performance worse than in XP though.... What is concerning is the card crashing in other video intensive games. You have either driver issues or the card is running too hot. I would try uninstalling the card from device manager, uninstall the drivers via add\remove, reboot into safe, run driver cleaner, reboot and install new drivers. |

| 715446 | 2008-10-28 23:49:00 | I don't think that overheating is the main issue here. I have an 8800gtx that idles around 65 degrees, and when OC'd and under load it reaches temperatures of 95-105 degrees. It still runs solidly but when the temperature threashold is reached (106 degrees) it starts lagging as the gfx card starts 'shutting down' and my pc will shutdown several seconds later. Just out of interest, what tool are you using to OC your gfx card? |

| 715447 | 2008-10-29 00:17:00 | The Nvidia Control Panel... Riva tuner doesnt work out too good for me basically when i OC in Nvidia it takes a bit longer than Riva Tuner to give the error message. Yea mine hasnt reached anywhere near the 90s (guessing). Another thing is i cant seem to change my fan speed. Its been blocked on the control panel???? Im sure all Nvidia cards have their Fans at 30% default. If i can get it to 100% do you think the OC would work? (I dont mind the noise either). If no one knew the 9800GT is pretty much an 8800GT with 1GB Unrelated, but the word "um" is for filling in space in spoken text. Why you decide to use it when typing is absolutely beyond me. when i use "umm" its usually when im thinking :D |

| 715448 | 2008-10-29 00:36:00 | I may have missed it, but what brand of gfx card is yours? If it is an Asus then you can download Smart Doctor (www.softpedia.com) which does a nice job of monitoring the temperature and fan speed. |

| 715449 | 2008-10-29 00:37:00 | its an Inno3D 9800GT 1GB | almightynugget (13536) | ||
| 715450 | 2008-10-29 21:25:00 | im really confused with all this happening it hasnt happened with any of my other cards :confused: I have tried everything.. installed the new drivers and all used driver cleaner... no luck... even if i increase it by 5Mhz it buggers up. |

| 715451 | 2008-10-29 21:38:00 | What does that tell you? Remember that no two chips are the same. They guarantee your card for the specs they come at. Anything else you get is extra. Just cause your friend can get some specs with the same card, it's never a guarantee that you will. |

| 715452 | 2008-10-29 21:44:00 | I see.. so it was just my bad luck with getting this particular card or... could the motherboard cause this aswell by not allowing me to do it? | almightynugget (13536) | ||
| 715453 | 2008-10-29 22:37:00 | This card vent the heat inside the case does it not?, I imagine your removing the side cover hasnt helped much as I said you lose vacuum of you airflow. How many intake and exhaust fans do you have, what case are you using? |
