Did the levels of spam over on the IOA forums reach epidemic proportions and have spilled over into our one now, Much like how the real mystery meat spam, reached English shores in the first place. ;)

We get bored of having to tell people not to spam, so we have to go wild occasionally!

my card died whilst playing CS:S - Im SURE its the dodgy nvidia driver that I was using. It was an official NVIDIA release, but put the temps up by up to 20 degrees.

Theres a post on it on the nvforums or whatever its called, calling for Nvidia to replace all the cards - I'm hoping they accept.

Just laughed my arse off at masseys posts.

Ive noticed loads of problems with my 6800GT and BF2. I get atifacts, stuttering, and sometimes a full system crash (like turning the power off and on again, POST screen etc.). Originally I thought it was due to my GFX overclock (running at Ultra speeds) but after removing this it hasnt made much difference.

Never had a problem with Doom or HL2/CSS must be that driver they MAKE you install before you can run the game.

Going to lay off BF2 if it's going to eat my card, there's only so many times you can crash a jet into a tree before it gets boring anyway ;)

My 9800Pro XL started artifacting all over the place last night - first time in over a year I have had an artifact so I am blaming BF2

Just got myself a Sapphire X800pro 256 with VIVO. Paid just £159.41 from Novotech. Hopefully this will last longer with BF2 than the 6800GT did.
