x800 card in new system

Postby Akashio » Sun Jun 12, 2005 1:37 am

I just installed a Radeon x800 Pci-E video card along with an Athlon 64 3500+. I went to test this new setup by playing a game, Tribes Vengeance. The fps counter says its playing at 170fps, but this video is skipping and hard to play in smoothly--this is the same in any game. Why is this happening. Any guesses?

First question, or rather the first implied suggestion is - have you tried any other games? It'd help if you checked that; also, it might help to update the drivers to the most recent version, which has been released just a couple of days ago.

I haven't updated to the newest drivers, but it should work fine...

I tried it with Splinter Cell, too. Same thing.
