Hello,
I recently bought a x1900xtx graphics card in place of an old 850xt. I put a Zalman VF 900 cu on top of it with some IC Diamond Carat 7 paste. I downloaded and ran ATITool to check the temperatures. They were 'ok' (80C after 10 minutes...). I started overclocking and just after a 50MHz overclock (just GPU... reached 700Mhz) my screen went blank and "no video input" message popped up. I quickly restarted my PC... Everything seemed ok. So I tried again. I upped the voltage to 1.450 thinking the stock voltage wasn't enough. Same thing happened though (crash after about a 50MHz overclock). I tried overclocking the memory with same results.
Other things:
I get weird screen 'tears' right after Window loads. Same thing happens if I try to overclock the card (the screen tears in the middle every few seconds?).
Any suggestions? My PSU and other components are listed in my signature. The card works fine when I play oblivion...
