and i still dont have my beer medal how cant u give a belgian a beer medal, srly

note also that semiacurate are sponsorized by ati so no accurate reviews or articles anyway well maybe semi accurate articles, yea lets say this its funny to see some of those articles online when nvidia just release new cards that outperform ati ones lol now its seems some 400 cards have failures, mine was one of them, im sending it back to evga but yea ati dont make cuda cards anyway, so no real choices for me glad i choose evga with their good support and warranty system

nvm its the card, im gona rma it, i plugged it in my old system and it froze again.

k so this is what im getting when im freezing in cod4 it seems now that im getting freezing only in cod4, but not sure yet i tried lot of things to fix this, cant seems to find the solution. for info i played crysis demo highest settings, no lag, no problems, nothing. so u notice the 'R_MarkFragments: Too many triangles to mark,...' and the 'Com_Touchmemory : 0 msec. ...' if i dont ctrl alt del when i get this, the game crash, sound loop,.. but no bsod, no reboot, i have to hard reboot i also tried with only one stick of ram, then the other, then both, same thing. sometimes i can play for 1hour without problem, but its very rare, sometimes i just join a server and game crash.

fyi, it never was fixed. just sometimes i can play like 2 hours without problems. but sometimes i cant even play more than 1min im sotired about this, not sure what is failing or what i should rma, the card, the mobo, the ssd, the psu? i have no idea. i played crysis demo at full max settings, no problems at all. i may try to install cod5 to try, and/or cod2 but yea no problems with my old 9800gtx f* it

hate razer, every razer stuff i bought failed after a month or even less wont buy razer ever again steelseries ftw !

ty loader DL the demo now

ty i dont wanna know if i can run it, i know i can im just asking if there is a demo or something i can play sry idiot inside

i'd like to test crysis on my new system is there any demo or something i can dl ? i dont even know what are the different crysis games, but i'd like to test asap, so i know if my card is ok or not thanx

FIXED ! woot cant believe i fixed it, took me like 4 or 5 days, but yea the gpu was not running on pcie 2 and on 8 instead of 16 i had to disable sata 3 controllers to do this. so its fixed but this mobo isnt sata 3 anymore now, this is annoying. gues it means i'll have to buy another one in the next 2 years, when sata 3 will be all over the place. anyway, thanx all for your help, and big thanx to gump

xfire is off wish it would be that easy k after palying like almost 2 hours starcraft 2, the problem came back wtf am i gona do now

cant see any errors there

want me to post all my dxdiag ?

i would dontate some stuffs if the shipment wasnt more expensive than the stuff looks like a nice rig u build there, i got the same ram

k there is a patch for starcraft released today, no more starcraft problems for me on ultra settings and all, and as i tried other games without any problems, its just something with cod4 i ran furmark stability test again for a few minutes and its pretty stable, no problems at all so its not an hardware problem and that is great news lol now im gona try to play on non punkbuster servers to see if its a pb problem.

im totally desperate i tried other games and no problems like blur, wish is very eye candy, and it run flawlessly at highest settings same with a nvidia demo game

thanx a lot gump, at least that helped with sound problems i got my woohoo back )) but i still crash. now i was able to see this error: also when i reinstalled cod4, the game was running at a very low resolution and not widescreen if i click on set automaticaly settings thing, it didnt change anything, not sure if its normal or not but its like cod4 dont detect the gpu ? and i believe its the same problem i got in starcraft, so now i have the feeling this pci-e ssd is interfering with the gpu i will post on ocz forum, maybe they got an idea these problems are a real chalenge lol its kinda exciting, but annoying at same time hope i got this fixed soon thou

the card isnt overheating i jsut used msi afterburner to check in game temps and other stuffs, but i didnt OC anything, it stay under 72°c, and it seems pretty normal for that gpu

hear ya, glad u fixed ur problems nitro what drivers are u using now ? i will try to reinstall cod4 too, would be cool if it works )

brand new gtx470, well everything is new but other drivers didnt fix the problem either i cleaned with ccleaner, but it didnt fix anything as the computer is brand new, i think i will just reinstall everything, the os ,... because it really start to piss me off note: just before it freeze/crash, i notice that ingame overlays like hud, all that is gone, and the image change colors, and freeze

take care grey, wish you a good rest and get a good ergonomic chair, its like night and day for back pain, well it works here

k, i think its latest nvidia drivers problem, i just read lot of same crashes reports with those drivers but thing is i tried several drivers before. but it was before installing realtek ones, hmmpf will try other drivers and chickenfinger crossed

we are getting somewhere, i didnt have 'stereo mix' at all in the recording tabs. so i DL and installed latest Realtek drivers and i enabled stereo mix my freezing problems still there, but are a bit different now, i get some FPS lag spikes then freezing i noticed that my voice sounds arent audible at all, u know the 'woohoo' that i love to spam all the time, i dont hear em at all but maybe its a sign that audio settings/drivers are causing problems, i guess this start to piss me off, u buy new stuffs, very expensive and u get more problems

lol même en français je pige pas ton message i had this problem on windows 7 32 bit but it wasnt really annoying, game crashed a few times/week now i have a new system, on windows 7 64bit, and cod4 crash all the time not sure whats going on, but the game just freeze, then i get black screen and sound loop untill the pc reboot. not sure its the same problem u got, but its been 3 days now im searching for a fix, i tried almost everything in vain. what are your specs nitro ? @Jack, uninstall pb and reinstall it didnt fix the problem here

u forgot chknfngr again how the hell put me with terrans
