ASUS AEH365 (ATI HD3650) Artifacting / pixelating
Okay, here is my issue. Whenever I am playing a game in a widescreen format (tried all types, from 1280 x 720 - 1680 x 1050) I get really bad artifacting (pixelization?)
The problem does not happen during regular Windows operations (1680 x 1050) The problem does not happen when watching fullscreen video (AVI, DivX, MPG) The problem does not happen when watching a DVD movie (PowerDVD) The problem does not happen when playing games in a 4:3 screen format (1024x768, 1280x1024) This is ONLY happening with gaming at widescreen formats (Rainbow 6 Vegas 2, Assasins Creed, UT3, COD4: Modern Warfare, Crysis) I am not having system crashes, just aggravation from the artifactng. Games play fine other than being ugly and blocky. A little about my system: Motherboard: Asus M3A BIOS Revision 0805 Processor AMD 5000+ Brisbane Black Edition Video: Asus EAH3650 Radeon HD3650 w/ Glaciator cooling Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 226cw @ 1680 x 1050 RAM: 4 GB (2GB x 2) PC2-6400 DDR2-800 Crucial Ballistix (passes Memtest86+ 100%) RAM Timings: 4-4-4-12 @ 2.2v Processor overclocking: None (Yet) Power SUpply: Rosewill 550 watts dual-fan Case Cooling: 1x 120mm intake in rear, 1x 120mm exhaust open-side, 2x 120mm exhaust case-top Processor cooling: Rosewill RCX-Z3 92mm Ball CPU Cooler w/ Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound Idle case temp: ~27°c Idle Processor temp: ~31°c Load processor temp: ~47°c OS: Windows XP Pro 32-bit w/ SP2 Miscellaneous information: 2 hard drives, 2 DVD-RW drives, 1 PCI wireless nic, USB printer and webcam, PS2 mouse & keyboard I am running the latest drivers from ASUS for the mobo, and am using ASUS's version of the Catalyst drivers. I have tried ATI's Catalyst Drivers and I have the same problem. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Last edited by thebeaf; 05-01-2008 at 08:12 PM. |

Re: ASUS AEH365 (ATI HD3650) Artifacting / pixelating
it's usually caused by bad ram on the card or the power supply
rosewill is not a recommended psu Power Supply Information and Selection

Re: ASUS AEH365 (ATI HD3650) Artifacting / pixelating
My father-in-law has the identical mobo, power supply (except his is a 500w), and video card. I think he has the 4400+ processor and he does not have any of these problems. I am leaning towards RMA'ing the video card at this point.
