Maybe to play 3dmark2005, but all other games work fine, wait 2dmark2005 aint a game. My 9600 Pro is not what you call ultra fast but it can play doom 3 at 1024by768 30fps and with all the detail up at high detail and if it can do that its still a great card, no matter what 3dmark2005...

System: WinXP Home SP2 Issue: bpp setting not staying at what I set it at I right-click on desktop, select properties - settings - change Color Quality from Medium (16 bpp) to Highest (32 bpp) and go about my business. Upon reboot, setting gets changed back to 16 bpp. Notes: I am running...

I have a dual boot 98/XP, and obviously use the XP 99% of the time. But there are legacy programs that I must run on 98. But I cannot find any driver to work. The installation CD says it's installed, but on reboot, it replies, 'no such ati board', and 'no such ati drivers' etc. I've tried the...

I have been drooling over the Viewsonic 21" VX2025WM or VA2012WB wide screen LCD monitors that are now down to about $300.00... These monitors have a native resolution of 1600x1050...the website cautions to be sure that your video card is capable of 1600x1050... I have the latest drivers and the...

hi all I have Turbo Pascal program which can set up to 1280x1024 resolution with Sapphire Radeon 9600 VGHA card. However I cannot set 1600x1200 mode. I have downloaded many BGI drivers, VESA programs which work on low level VGA cards like S3TrioPCI but I just cannot set 1600x1200 mode using...

Hi, I have a native 1600x1200 LCD that has 16ms response time (i.e. it works great in games!). I need to determine whether I want to buy a 256MB card or a 128MB card. Since I will run some of my games at 1600x1200 does it matter which I get? I realize that some games won't run acceptably at...

Hey guys and gals, I don't have all the info since this isn't a problem on my PC, but here's the problem. We just bought a Acer AL2216W 22" monitor. It is a 1680 x 1050 60Hz panel. This resolution didn't show up in the ATI control panel so we used Powerstrip to create this resolution. This is what...

I have an ATI 9600 running under XP Pro. Using the 6.14.10 drivers. We just dispositioned a lot of gear at work, and I got my hands on a mint Sony widescreen FW900. I set it up okay at 1600x1200, but I'm wondering why I can't set it up at 1600x1024 (which the Sony supports). Can the 9600...

I bought a 19" Samsung panel and it works great but was wondering If I would see any improvement by using a DVI cable instead of my VGA cable. Anyone have any words of wisdom on this? Best buy wants $52 for a DVI cable so I don't want to through my money away. Thanks,

Oh my days, this thing is massive. i don't believe it, i keep smiling every time i look! For those of you who didn't read my previous post i decided to buy a AG neovo F419 19" LCD I'm using the DVI input, its like reading from backlit paper!! i played COD at 60FPS at 1280x1024 not a single...

i noticed Oblivion on the 360 is quite a nice looking game, and runs fairly smoothly most of the time as well. I want Oblivion for my PC, but i'll have to upgrade. What kind of performance can i expect at max settings for this game on a system with an E6600 Core 2 Duo and an X1900XT(512)? I'd...

I just purchased a HIS 1900 XT. The clocks shown in the tool tray and under the Catalyst control center/overdrive are 500/594. They are refered to as "current" VPU and memory. The " system info" tab under CC also shows 499/594. I know that the clocks are suppose to be 625/725 so I figure the...

I keep reading in magazine articles eg in PC PRO "Considering the £25 price premium for the XTX's minuscule improvement, it doesn't make sense to choose it over the XT, especially as you can only take advantage of CrossFire with the XT version." that two 1900XTX cannot be installed as a crossfire...

I have access to a Samsung 240T LCD monitor that is driven by a Sapphire Radeon 9000 at 1920x1200 via a DVI connection. Windows XP works fine at 1920x1200 resolution. The problem is that I recently installed Fedora Linux in a partition and cannot get it to run at anything higher than 1600x1200....

I am having more trouble getting my 9800 Pro to properly support this monitor. It is connect via VGA (the DVI port is in use from another computer). 9 times out of 10, when I boot, the card thinks the monitor can only support 1600x1200, so it scrolls left and right with black bars on the side....

Sorry for crossposting, I couldn't find a general videocard group... I need to drive a HP LP2335 via a Single Link DVI cable on 1920x1200, preferrably on 60Hz (I need the 1920x1200 more than the 60Hz). This only seems to be possible when using the "reduced blanking" feature. There is no need for...

Hi I just bought a 1950xtx and asus P5NSLI. i I can post with one power supply and play games fine . I am using a dongle and when I use one dongle that pins on bottom I see i have 2 positive 12 volts and 4 ground on the molex. . I can post fine when I use the one of the dongles comming from...

All, Just bought the Sapphire 9600 Pro. OK so its not the most powerful card but I'm on a budget. Looking forward to a little better performance than the GF3 Ti200 its replacing. Two questions - best way to install to avoid conflicts etc? Do I need to hunt down and destroy all references to...
