Re: Fast / quiet / cool AGP graphics card

Posted on 2024-04-02, 16:06

Hi guys, thanks for the heads-up, about capacitors, but I managed to source the reason of my troubles to the GPU-Z app actually - seems it would fight for resources trying to monitor the GPU temp and freeze the PC. Soon as I tried running 3D tests without the GPU-Z in the background, everything ran …

chipset drivers are latest from Shuttle website for Win XP and card stays cool enough, I tried TWO cards with same problem, which I've successfully used before in another system. It seems to me as a compatibility issue.... EDIT: for card Omega drivers 38330 and one newer, forgot the name, as well as …

update coming up your way... :) In the end I decided for Radeon X800 series and I'd say it's the right choice, but now I see different trouble - the system freezes as soon as there's some 3D involved: - I tried first with Sapphire X800XT PE AGP card, much cooler than 7900GS, idle with open case at ± …

I love the design and compactness of this case and the idea it accommodates a solid 939 x2 CPU, with good sound (x-fi) and good graphics, also managed to squeeze wifi in the case via USB extension cable.... very portable and enough capable for LAN parties I hope to attend. So it remains down to …

7900GS not my minimum performance requirement, the the stronger the better I would say... I could even go as low as an Ati 9700 PRO card, I remember them having a relatively small cooler - does it mean they also not being warm alot? I don't have a 7300 GT / 7600 GT card unfortunately, so I could …

no underclocking, as I'm trying to squeeze out the maximum of the system, and no dual slot solutions (such as NV/Ati silencer), as they physically don't fit into the case... How about newer generations of cards, such as X1600 / X1650 / 2600HD - do they heat up a lot? I'm not talking about 3850 (too …

Fast / quiet / cool AGP graphics card

Posted on 2024-03-12, 06:25

Hello all, The title says it all - I am looking for a (relatively fast), but cool and preferably silent AGP graphics card. Reason for such a request - I've decided to run a Shuttle SN95G5 SFF socket 939 system for retro win XP setup, and fit inside Athlon X2 3800+ Toledo and 2 x 1GB DDR400, SSD …

Hi Charleston, You are having a hardware problem with your graphics card, one channel is dead, seems this problem might be frequent, as I had the same problem with my 6800 and 7800 AGP cards. I overcome this problem similar way as you did - I used a DVI to AGP adapter and the problem went away (well …

Re: Problem with Voodoo2 SLI in MPS system

Posted on 2023-03-29, 21:07

I found out my PSU has additional 6-pin connector and connected it, and voila - all started working as it should. Me very happy 😊 My PSU is relatively old but solid, an LC-Power 550W atx 2.0 model, with ~200W on 3.3V and 5V combined, so I should be fine...

Re: Problem with Voodoo2 SLI in MPS system

OK; update (all tests are done under Win 2K, DX9.0b, drivers 3dfx v1.02 / Gold drivers v4.0) 1 CPU - 1 card -> works OK (tried with both cards separately, to check for possibility of faulty card) 1 CPU - 2 cards -> SLI works, but freezes after a few seconds, seems that they become de-synchronized (I …

Radeon 8500 and white screen output

Posted on 2023-01-18, 08:02

Hello all, This is maybe my 1st post in Vogons, and I write about a problem :D I'm also one of the guys trying to get period correct collections of AGP cards (all the way up to Radeon HD 3850), and somewhere along the way, I had most problem to find Radeon 8500/9000/9100, as they were not very much …
