Hey guys new here and rather a noob when it come to GFX cards and well everything else hardware wise lol so hoping u cud offer sum assistance.

Neway my pc is rather crap and i know this....
AMD Athlon 1.13 (dunno much else about it tbh if neone has views or better way to improve it pm me plz)
384 PCI133 DDR ram
and a GainWard GeForce FX 5900 (once again i know nothing about lol)

neway the problem is this.... i play Lineage 2 and enjoy it that much i think i'm addicted lol but the problem is graphical tears on certain scenery textures and it's bugging me cos i can't takea decent screenshot for my character when fighting without these little tears. TBH i think it's down to my CPU and ram and i mite be rite so ne suggestions wud be great and yes i have up to date drivers and use the expertool that Gainwood provides. Thnx in advance :D

SpiNe (and yes thats my real name :p )
 
PSU i know is a 300w and thats about it gonna see in min what make and that is and the drivers i'm using are.... nvidia offical drivers 66.93 hope that info helps.
 
Okies i dunno if i have found the prob yet but answer this question for me.... say if the graphics was 8x AGP and the motherboard only supports 4x AGP wud that make a huge difference?

If this does then i may have solved the problem for my self after hours of so called 'tinkering' hehehe. uif this is the case then i'll order the new motherboard from novatech when i get at least 2 replys verifying this problem :D

Till then guys happy new year if not back to me by then :D
 
Sorry, but I was running a 6800le in agp4x before I remembered to switch it to 8x in the bios and no performance difference at all.
