Hey all!
I got this card (radiator and metal bracket are custom)
It works just fine, except for these weird vertical lines that appear ONLY on top of 3D SCENES that are HARDWARE ACCELERATED, and no place else (so NOT in desktop; NOT in the 2D menu of a 3D game; NOT in a 3D game that is run in Software Renderer)
- A weird behavior is that the lines are perfectly static and fixed in space in relation to the screen. So for example, if I run a 3D game in a window, the lines DO NOT move along with the window, and also DO NOT spill over the window borders, into the desktop.
- Another behavior, is that they change appearance depending on the resolution, but not really depending on the refresh rate.
- And also they change appearance depending if the game is run in a window or fullscreen, even if the window & fullscreen & desktop are all at the same resolution/color/refresh.
This behavior is identical on both my CRT & LCD, each with their own vga cable.
Also, I have pulled out the 3 electrolytic capacitors, and tested them with an ESR meter, and have replaced the one next to the bios chip, which tested kinda bad; but with no improvement afterwards.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
