Howdy peeps i just took back my BFG 5900 128mb Card and swapped it for a 9800Pro. Seems like theres alot of cool peeps here. Is there anything special i should do before i install this card. I have already uninstalled my old Card
make sure you have the catalyst drivers and driver cleaner downloaded. after uninstalling nvidia related stuff, reboot into safe mode, run driver cleaner for nvidia files, and run cab cleaner (driver cleaner > tools > cab cleaner), then power off your computer and install the new card. that should be it!
cool thx got it all setup DAMN this card ROCKS!!!!!! i play alot of bf1942/DesertCombat & UT2003. this card is awesome. i installed the 3.7 Cats. but under display adapters in device manager it shows two 9800 pro's one has secondary next to it?????
Welcome K0diak. I myself swapped from a 5900 ultra 256, last month and i can safely say the grass is definatley greener on the other side, I even got change back on my fx when i swapped.
congrads and welcome.. your gona love it when you can play unreal at 4xaa and 16xaf...and BF at 4xaa and 8xaf...thats what I use and they look amazing Thunda
just a 'thing' you have to deal with.. getting through those menus can be tough with aa enabled. at least you don't have to deal with quincunx!
This is because your card probably has DVI out (or Digital Video out). and/or svid out. Some new TV's and Monitors support this (DVI), and thus you can have 2 video channels going!
i´ve bought a powercolor 9600 pro ez 256 3 days ago switched from msi fx 5200 and i am very pleased ! my frames have tripled playing AOD at 1024x768 with 2xaa 8x AF with everything max and plays great (omega 2.96b drivers)
Thats odd.. I play BF with 4xaa and 8xaf and it looks fine..what exactly is weird about the way it looks ? Thunda
