Avoid Gainward
Simple as, really.
Specifically their 6800 LE series. Wrong BIOS for the memory thats on board causes a black screen when memory clock is at its default 700Mhz. U have to downclock it to 500. http://forum.gainward.de/viewtopic.p...=biod+download Ebuyer seem(ed) to be purposely holding back on getting any Leadtek cards in below the £200 price bracket till they shifted their 300 Gainwards. Avoid like the plague I wish i did. |

since they're all built around the same GPU would another BIOS from a
different manufacturer work I know that it would for older 5900 cards. they could be flashed with the BIOS from a 5950 and the timings worked fine, even on 128MB cards. Robin |
