Crysis and my 8800GT

SilenceDoGood · 11-21-2007, 05:48 PM

Computer Specs:
Intel E6750 2.66ghz dual
4gb of PC-5300 kingston ram
P5N32-E SLI MOTHERBOARD
EVGA 8800GT
250G SAMSUNG (16M) HDD
850watt ZUMAX POWERSUPPLY
ANTEC 900 CASE

I just bought my computer a few days ago and installed a fresh installation of windows XP Pro 32bit. After installing all of the latest drivers for my computer and updated my BIOS for the motherboard to the newest addition i tried to install Crysis on the computer and play it. I have no latency problems when it comes to video, movement in the game is fine as well. The problem i am having happens pretty often and usually happens when i'm looking at a building model in the game, while i pass over these structures in the game i get strange video errors of lines on the screen. I was just wondering if any one knows anything about problems they be having with the 8800gt or any of the hardware i listed above.

Thank you for your time,
Peter

I am thinking it is ether your power supply or your temps can you post what speedfan says (in my sig) also download a program called rivertuner for the gpu temps, besure to post the voltages on the bottom of speedfan also.

I'll do that and then get back too you soon.

ok if you can find out what the temps are at the time of the lines

I'm getting moderate levels of temperature while running Crysis. I don't know if this helps you at all but i ran the Direct3D tool inside the DirectX Diagnostic tool. When you get to the graphics test when you see the cube the side of the cube where the DirectX logo is, is some what red-ish and discolored. Any ideas why that could be?

**1 g0t 0wn3d** · 11-21-2007, 09:36 PM

what exactly are the temps and voltages just to make sure?

SilenceDoGood · 11-21-2007, 09:59 PM

The thing is that speed fan isn't showing my video card temperature. Is there another way that i can test this?
