heh... on my ATI system, it actually slowed things down by .5 fps.. but, it's pci-e, so I guess that's not too damn telling now is it.

Richie. I recommend you purchase a quality fire extinguisher post-haste, and keep it near your computer.

Good. It's not that I'm knocking ATI's hardware, it's just that.. um... well... the drivers....

I'd get some holy water while you're out, too.

Last week, in a club with over 40 resi present (the Blarney Stone in Dublin), with screen resolution at 1280x960, and with all graphics settings MAXED OUT, I was STILL getting 8 fps on my system.

I get 40 fps most of the time.

I Just LOOVE my BFG 6800 OCX. I pity all you poor ATI users... ;)

why why WHY? I never had one problem with my card.. save the Fans dying.. but ASUS replaced the card straight up for me.. only instead of giving me a 9800 they gave me a 9800xt!! and its a freaking great card! little hot (like me :p ) !!

I even managed double figure FPS in Oblivion at maxed graphics!!

My Graphics card is a BFG (NVidia) 6800 OCX AGP8X card, with 256 MB of DDR2 VRAM. My GPU clock is 425 MHz, and the VRAM clock is 1.1 GHz. 4x Anti-Aliasing & 4x Anisotropic filtering are on. My draw distance is set at 200m.

My system is based on an ASUS K8V-deluxe mobo, with 2GB of Corsair TWINX-3200C2PRO, and an Athlon 64 running at 2.4 GHz. I am running Win XP SP2.

Does that answer your questions?

why why WHY?

Why? Complete refusal to aknowledge the huge improvement ATi has made in regard to drivers, expecially within the last 3 years. Of course.
