I recently bought a Radeon 8500 BBA 64mb, and from the start I had problems. At first I suspected it was the card just dieing, because underclocking fixed it, but just a few minutes ago I stuck it in my main rig(because it had totaly stopped playing anything 3d on my 2nd rig) and it works fine, even at full clocks. What could be causing this problem? I suspect its an incompatibility, but why would it be getting worse? When it decides to stop working in my 2nd rig(only happens in 3d areas) the screen gets vertical randomly colored lines. Also, the mobo had worked fine with my 9100, but I epoxied a waterblock to it, so I cant put it in that pc. Any sugestions?
