I know this is a weird question. But here's the thing: I recently bought "Immortal Fenyx Rising" and ran into this issue I have from time to time in games: moving the camera around with the mouse feels and looks somewhat laggy, as if framerate is below 60 fps. I remember playing this one game...

My old MOBO had a built-in spdif out and I used to hooked up my receiver using a coaxial cable, instal spdifer and everything was right with the world. But my new MOBO doesn't have one so I got this new PCI sound card with spdif out, very basic but it does the job. My question is related to the...

Hi everybody. First, the hardware: I have a 1080p capable 32" LCDTV. I use a DVI/HDMI cable to hook my PC to this TV, via a Radeon X1950pro that works quite well. Now for the questions: If I have the desktop resolution set to 1360x768, and play a 1080p video (fullscreen), does this video get...

As far as I knew, ATI left their legacy drivers stuck at version 9.3. Today I found their legacy driver is listed as version 9.8. Anybody knows if there were any changes? http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Legacy/Pages/radeonaiw_xp.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.13&lang=English

I'm thinking of buying a LCD HDTV, probably 37", 40" top. Which size is more convenient when watching HD material, ie bluray? I also have an upscaling DVD player, which I have tried on a 720p LCD. It does a fairly good job and DVDs look great. But here are some questions I'd like to ask for your...

Hi everybody, and thanks in advance to those brave enough to help me on this problem :heart: :nag: A friend of mine owns a 720p LCD TV, and one day I brought my PC to his place to try this amateur HTPC connection. My computer has a radeon x1950pro with two DVI outputs, so using the dvi-hdmi...

Yes, again this is happening to me. Anyone else got blocky/jagged shadows in Call of Duty 4? It's VERY annoying and distracting. radeon x1950pro

Has anyone else tried running Crytek's "The Project" tech demo on a radeon x1950pro or simmilar? I get missing textures and characters, ie where a character is supposed to be, I only see two floating eye balls, and the monster on the table is completely black, no texture, among other...

Hi guys, I just tried the NFS carbon demo, and everything ran smoothly, except for one thing: the reflections on the car (lights) move at like 3 fps, why is this happening? I've got everything maxed out, and the frame rate is great @ 1024x768 (I've got a 17" monitor), but this one thing turns...

Hi guys. Just a small doubt: Is this normal? Geometry Instancing being grayed out? I see it is selected, so does this mean it is enabled? I remember being able to select and unselect it when I had my 9800pro installed, although if I remember correctly, after installing catalyst 7.9 on my...

Since there's always some thread asking "when does x.x cat. comes out", I thought I'd leave this one created, in case anyone feels curious some time from now. I saved you the trouble!

I've played many games, but there's one that always come back to my mind. All the little details, atmosphere, etc. For me, it's got to be "Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory". What's yours?

So, I decided to play "Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory" again. Being an owner of a radeon9800pro I knew I had to download the game's latest patch in order to get SM2.0 functionality. As far as I remember, SM2.0 HDR, without being unimpressive, didn't look as good and shiny as SM3.0 HDR (besides the...

It just died. The card works fine, so it's not malfunctioning. What should I do? How can a fan just die? It's a shappire radeon, did something died IN the card, or is it just the fan? Sometime it starts moving just a little bit, VERY slow, and then it stops. What is it? What should I do? PS: I...

I didn't give a thought about this issue for a long time, but today I re-installed "halo" and the crytek demo "the project" and ran into those ugly blocky shadows again, the ones I found in NFS:most wanted and other games. So... what's up with this crap anyway? Anyone found what is this all...
