Screenshot of the week

Here is another example of artifacting, on a 9600 GT I think:

Quake 4 :p

Hey guys how do you upload pics on to forums i got a few intresting ones!

That's just called maximizing your car park space

Thanks Beta. Yes, I have the 9600 GT. I recently shot some air through it (a bit of dust did blow out of it), although I did not take the cover off as you've suggested.

I've considered going back to older drivers, but the problems (artifacts/graphical anomalies or whatever they're called) have not happened recently.

btw, the middle pic in your previous post was the most recent type of error that occurred, which has never occurred in the past; the sky in Crysis turned into little colored blocks. This type of stuff has been happening off and on since Crysis 1, so I don't think it's a sign of my gpu dying like you suggested, as I'd think it'd be dead by now.

Anyways, here are the Crysis 1 videos I uploaded to youtube in 2008.

Those vids are whacked man. I was just like woah. Another options you can try is underclocking the video memory. If that doesn't help, underclock the GPU. So far I've found Rivatuner to be the most stable on all video cards I've clocked.

If it is an EVGA 9800 GT then I'd get a replacement.

Rip- I'm not sure why farmacunt posted random screenshots; I was wondering the same thing myself.

I think you nailed it.

It´s interesting what kind of screenshots people make. It tells more about them than you can actually see in the screenshot itself

I would recommend against using evga precision just because for me, i wasnt able to use xfire or steam in game when i had it on.

I can use all three at once. You should try reformatting.

Dude, in the M$ Windows world, reformatting is as common as changing the oil in your car. I mean hey wtf omg lol

But anyway, I have a good screenshot for this thread... after I reboot into Windows... since I use Linux as my desktop. muahahahhaha

*edit*
Mesa war factory at Echo 3. Somehow I drove my truck right into that tight little hallway.

Ya man it's lowest settings at 1680x1050. Unfortunately, the rig is so old it still uses morse code and runs on cole. Thus, a good reason to water cool it and overclock the snot out of it.

AMD Athlon X2 4000+ (Brisbane 2.1Ghz) overclocked to 3.003Ghz
EVGA Nvidia 9800 GT 512Mb (600Mhz stock overclocked to 729Mhz)
4Gb OCZ DDR2
Gigabyte 570 SLI mobo
Swiftech Apogee GT water block, Black Ice GTS 360mm radiator, VIA Aqua 1800 water pump, Inovotech chipset block, Inovotech GPU block.
8O I've been water cooling it for almost 3 years... yea I'm a dang water cooling pioneer that needs a job to buy new stuff.

Hehe nice love Swiftech and Inovotech Stuff
