At higher resolutions and 32bit colors, sli starts to "break" and you will see pink lines. This happens at 1920x1080x32 and 1600x1200x32. Using 16bit works for both of those resolutions(should). 1920x800 should be fine in both 16/32bit.

So Ive been playing System shock 2, which is a d3d title... And had some unpleasant screen tearing. D3d titles seem to defaut to 75hz refresh rate, whats set in the registry. I know this for a while, just now was the time to get to it and change it. I looked if theres a registry value that affects …

Either removed it or didnt come installed, forgot, its been a while. They do look nice. You can also ask Anthony if he still has some and ship the card with these, not the alu one(if its a compatible model card).

I used to love those zalman coolers "back in the day". When I started (so now) the old gpu hoarding process, a local computer store had some still new, ofc I took the vf900 fatality edition... (Same fan as vf700) Well this fan on it, just has a terrible bearing sound profile to it. No matter what …

Offtopic, but to correct my misinformation, before someone belives it. v1.29 works fine(even a bit faster) on a voodoo5 too, the game just defaults to windoved fullscreen, so it runs on one chip only, thats why fps was so low. Adding -nativefullscr to the start option ofc fixes that. Dumbass... …

If it adds anything, since Im currently playing it.... up to v1.26 "works" on win98, v1.29 needs newer os. In d3d it lags when I move the mouse, not present in opengl. Could be just my configuration. Not sure for in-between versions, 26 is the one to go with anyway. For v1.29 game got an engine …

For some reason, the only game I know, where glide is a lot slower than d3d. At 1920x800 its touching 100fps, 32bit is fine too. In glide 1280x1024 is already too slow and stutters.
