QUOTE(8tvt @ Nov 29 2007, 10:45 AM) Just to clear a doubt if any.. bout 3dmark issue juz go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\Futuremark\MSC & rename "Direcpll.dll" file to any name e.g. 1 - if anyone intend to buy 3850/3870 and facing installation prob using winxp... * manual installation of display driver should do the trick, then can install catalyst control center 2 - problem starting 3dmark and hang at splash screen * 3dmark need hotfix for new gpu go download them and install.. "xxx.dll". I ask my buddies & they don have any issue installing latest ATi catalyst 7.11 drivers. why not u tried install framework 2.0 or 3.0 1st, then install catalyst.

QUOTE(ikanayam @ Dec 5 2007, 06:03 AM) If it's just colors, you can adjust that quite easily. AFAIK not only colors quality itself. ATi got better noise reduction on HD Movie playback, better de-interlacing on DVD playback Image represent all too much to explain zzz... I got both HD2900XT & 8600GTS u can easily noticed their difference.This post has been edited by zeustronic: Dec 5 2007, 08:51 AM |

QUOTE(sniper69 @ Dec 10 2007, 11:23 AM) yes... 1GB 2900XT, well, it tried both card with same setting @1280x1024 on my system... even though almost same fps, but i felt (very subjective though), the gameplay much more smoother with HD2900XT, about the IQ... it's ATi man... nothing can beat them In Gear Of Wars XBOX360, HD2900XT & 8series color dark & faded, but on HD3850 color quality improve a lot in brighter & more fresh like beyond tweaking capabilities. |
