1) Bridge chip is damaged or balls underneath it are "giving up". 2) Check temps or repaste the whole card

"Free" SSAA on everything that runs with GTX 780 Ti 😀 Since it's SO OP vs. games that actually run on WinXP. Maybe not moded Skyrim, but standard version should work well.
Re: 7800 or 7900 series?

Try sticking to 256MB VRAM of 7800 GTX/7900 GT. With 512MB VRAM there are issues NV driver has (you need a fix to make it work properly under Win98).

While Titan X(M) "takes" 512MB No it doesn't and I can't see how the screen shots you posted indicate it does. The prefetch area is 288 MB so there is no way it uses 512 MB! Well, when I swap GPU from Titan Black to Titan X(M), my available RAM drops to 2,94GB (can be seen both in task manager and …

Biggest problem with ASRock AGP/PCIe boards on Quads is massive Vdroop/no LLC, and FSB limitations. 256MHz (real clock), is usually required for full stability (stock) and -0,1V Vcore drop under load doesn't help OC'ing. As for 775i65... I own 3.0 version. Filename 3DMark 01 SE mini.png File size …

Re: PCI-E Bandwidth and you
Posted on 2020-02-29, 12:40
So if the 4600ti has a max bandwidth of 10GB/s and AGP x8 can only do 2GB, would a PCI-E version of the 4600ti get significantly higher frame rates? Just to point out the obvious : GeForce 4600 Ti does NOT support AGP 8x - it's AGP 4x only card. What GPU gets from CPU, is only the raw data and …

For Win98 it's more about additional drivers and stuff, not chipset drivers themselves (I ran Win98 on i7 980X). IF your hard drive controller, GPU, USB, Audio, LAN, etc. has drivers for WIn98 - it should work (assuming platform configuration isn't an issue* ) *like having too much RAM on install …
