QUOTE(commandboy @ Dec 5 2008, 07:27 PM) then how about my case? if only appear sometimes, what cause those artifact appear? not enough power ? gc problem? but everytimes i discover artifact on furmark, a restart pc will solved it... last time my 4850 although just a ref card, never happen to me ...  Mine is encounter black screen. Screen goes black, then comes back on or black if it totally crashes. This only affected the very first batch of 4850GS that landed in Malaysia.

4850 is faster than 9600gso  ..the only 1 on-par is 9800GTX+ (the plus version, not the non plus)

I took a video of the process with my hp lol. Best way to keep it as evidence in case you bring back to shop, then it does not reproduce the same problem.

currently using Gainward HD4850 non-overclocked version, clocked at 625MHz/993MHz (1986MHz), tried 700MHz/1000MHz (2000MHz), artifacts started to appear... showing that the overheating signature, after increasing fan speed to 65%, seems to be ok now..., too bad i can't use ATi Catalyst OverDrive because of the BIOS thingy, thinking to re-flashing BIOS with GS one...  ...

What was the temperature like before increasing the fan speed to 65%? And after increasing fan speed to 65%? At load that is..when gaming.. Use software such as hardware monitor so you can know the peak temperature while gaming.

hi guys.. i'm using 4850GS and installed ATI 8.12 driver. In my process list i see the following:
CCC.exe TBPANEL.exe MOM.exe ati2evxx.exe
I did a google on all these files to find out that they are ATI processes. Was wondering if i could disable ANY or ALL of them? Is it compulsory to have these processes running to have 4850GS running optimal?
Thanks

Mine doesn't have that, 8.11 though.
