anyone running on 2 monitors and having flickering issues when playing game/video? its f***ing annoying

What card are you using?
1) Swapping DVI-D cables?
2) Swapping which DVI-D cables go to which ports on the back of the card?
3) Using a DVI-D and a DisplayPort cable?
4) Which operating systems you're using?
Have you tried it?

Any crashing other than that? How about connecting single monitor running only? Many reasons behind but most probably you need to update the latest drivers to see if it will fix the problems

They won't easily reduce price now.

AMD Overtakes Nvidia as Top Discrete Graphics Vendor. Advanced Micro Devices overtook Nvidia during the second quarter to become the top discrete graphics card vendor, according to market research firm Mercury Research.

If you want something like 3D Vision using active glasses, then can't help it. But something like 3D Vision Discover, maybe you want to add iZ3D to your ATI rolleyes.gif

Nvidia 3D Vision Discovery is freakin' awesome!  drool.gif
http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-discover-main.html

I "test drive" it for 10 minute 3 days ago at KL Convention Centre (PC Fair), set the 3D stereoscopic to the max settings (15% I think) and the depth of field is very articulate.  notworthy.gif

Yeah, ATi should have something like this in their arsenal but I don't believe they will anytime soon,
because ATi doesn't have that much of a wide variety of technology other than graphic cards, and Eyefinity (which Nvidia have their own alternate version... IN 3D !!!!)..
Havok is considered an unfinished project, so I will not include it..
Nvidia although a bit late with their newer line of cards (GTX 4xx), they ventured into other stuff like Physics engine (Phsyx), 3D vision (games, movies, pictures), multi-display 3D gaming, CUDA, industrial graphic cards, PS3, etc. etc.

Plus AMD is pre-occupied with their own technologies like their processors hence limit the growth with their ATi. And the fact when compared ATi with Nvidia, Nvidia is the bigger company thus have the resource and expenditure in their field of technology.

Which game you're playing? Some games the 3D effects are washed up and makes dizzy only. As said earlier, if you want can download the iZ3D version of 3D. Additionally, the 3D-DLP Driver is available free to customers using an ATI Radeon Graphics Cards.

Which 500W Cooler Master PSU?

(1) RP-500-PCAR ATX12V V2.01 +12V1 @16A,+12V2 @16A Total +12V

or

(2) RS-500-PCAR-A3 ATX 12V V2.3 +12V1 @18A +12V2 @18A Total +12V 360W

This PSU, while capable of 500W, gets electrically noisy when loaded. Since it loaded by a HD5850 while gaming, and noise can be damaging to components. Get a quality PSU Antec, Corsair and Enermax

Radeon HD5670 is like a slightly slower(a few %) GeForce 9800GT.

HD5670 is best in the range...9800GT is very old laugh.gif

my sis told me she's having this error while playing/after playing sim games. ati 5850.

vpu recover
vpu recover has reset your graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands. please tell ati technologies about this problem.

weird as i didnt face this probs when playing ra3.

another side probs, slow loading when opening software like words etc etc. but once open everything fast.

using wd harddisk green. sweat.gif

The card is going to die rolleyes.gif Maybe can try other methods.

Update your drivers. To update, you should uninstall them first.

Overheating: Overheating of the GPU itself and the RAMs on the GPU can cause the GPU to stop responding. To see if this is the problem, monitor your GPU and RAM temperature with GPU-Z.

PSU (power supply) failing to provide enough power for GPU. laugh.gif

Just for reference. But too bad I can't find any comparison between 4670 & 4870 against the 4770. Wanted to know the differences on 3DMark Vantage as well.

Using on AMD Chipset, it would hamper with the ability to go SLI without hack therefore making the HD5850 a better choice.

Otherwise, GTX460 cheap enough and performs decently at what it's priced at. Hope they make a price drop on HD5850 brows.gif

Has anybody here setup eyefinity? Newbie here. hehe

What card are you using? drool.gif

Eyefinity requires one of the monitors with the display port. You can have a combination of 2 DVI or 1 DVI and 1 HDMI display. But the 3rd MUST use the display port. So it's buying a display port to DVI active converter. I don't know if this causes lag in monitor response rate.

Once you have 3 displays setup completely, just use ATI drivers and turn on Eyefinity.
