hey guys,whats the chances of returning a nvidia 8800gts Fata1ity(as faulty) that won't run at stock speeds(core 650mhz,shader core1.6ghz,memory clock 1ghz) and creates system freezes,bsod's,system hangs,So it is running underclocked at (core 602mhz,shader clock 1.46ghz,and memory clock 969 mhz,just to keep it stable in games.
i've tried every imaginable scenario to eleviate the problem,windows bios updates,drivers,new windows install,xp 32bit/64 bit/vista 32 and 64 bit.....etc etc.personally think its the shader clock shutting down in games,as game sound can still be heard with no screen,just black screen.
