Clipping and video tearing in game

[risingsun]

I have two 6800's and my CPU overclocked, but now in game i get weird clippyness in game, like geometric pieces of the ground turn blakc, or my hand has that weird super stretched line crap (if u dont konw what im talking about, it just looks messed up).

Is it bc of my cpu clocks or my gpu clocks, btw both seem to run stable temps.

sounds like gpu artifacting to me... check temps and back off gpu clocks.

Well the temps are fine on everything......But i guess i need to turn it down.

Im just a little ****ed because theyre XTs, and I only overclocked them to run like GT's so it doesnt seem like that high of a clock.

BTW Team Losi Rules: I have a XXXT MFE in my garage

I know what you mean about that "stretched line," I had something similar happen with my 7900GT. Unfortunately it turned out that the core was artifacting, and I had to RMA that card. I got a replacement and everything's, once again, flawless. Try using one card at a time and see if one of them artifacts (the stretched lines)....if it does, that card is failing. :(

I would also try setting everything to stock settings, after writing down all of the other settings that you have (CPU clock, voltage, etc..), to see if that cures your problem.

Give it a shot and let me know how it turns out. :beer:

lol not to bag on you but 2 6800xt's in sli really aint worth it less you got a good deal on the cards... n e ways ya go back to stock and see if you have the prob... and yes Team Losi is the ****... i got a XXX BK w/ a 5700kv mamba max motor in it... 50,000+ rpm's of axle snapping goodness!

i may look into gettin a xxx bk2 this summer as my bk is gettin kinda old and worn out.

[risingsun]

yeah i clocked em down and they work fine

Yeah my sli wasnt worth it in retrospect, im prolly not gonna do it again,

But its nice to buy one extra card a year down the line instead of buying a new one and selling ur old.

Sounds like video memory wedges. Lower the memory clock on the video cards.

On a similar note......
If i wanted to sell my cards on here.....wehre would i go?

6800's are pretty dated. The classified forums here the OCF are pretty good. Give them a try first and
if the cards do not move (age) then try eBay but don't expect to get to much out of them.

i think its after 100 posts and you have to have a legit isp email... of both of which i have but i still cant see the classies.
