Past is past right. Of course I would not use an old driver. I am sure you must have had bad experiences in the past...but we all have right, with some service, product.

I never said....ATI does not have problems with drivers. YES IT DOES, but so does green team.

By the way: what was your bad experience(s) with the ATI drivers. Did you read my link..?

u know y i sold HD 4850

1) No driver support in Linux
2) Physx
3) powerful cards but pathetic driver
4)no support in media works like decoder when i convert to MP4 from VOB - the old drivers not giving clarity

is this enough !

Not with 9.xx drivers. I am lucky with this. Coz in the DVD bundled with my HD4670, i got 9.xx drivers....

If they try to concentrate on linux side, it'll sure kick all these debates to an end...

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Please if u r buying graphics card look after physx - the most wanted eyecandy graphics

Well, this is the only reason why I'm not buyin' a HD5850. I knew what PhysX was, when I played Batman: Arkham Asylum. Awesome visual effects! And moreover, I've a 19" monitor and this GF9800GTX+ is doin' a great job. How many years do you guys think this card will hold on with this monitor? I'm playin' every game with 1440x900 res., 4x or 8x AA & 16x or 8x AF. Will this card be able to play games with this settings till '11?

Yea the 9.xx drivers are stable, and have cleared a lot of bad patches. An they release a new one every month.

If we start to speak about non M$ OS, a lot of stuff will be bad, faulty, useless. Like it or not M$ rules the world (gaming world).

Yea, heard a lot about the Physics effects in BM:AA. Yet to see it, but am sure, it is really good.

[Regarding my Avatar, Yea...I really like Clint. His Westerns were excellent . We can discuss more on PM ]

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Which one is better 9500GT or HD4350???

And for gaming which card shud I go for??? (I know for gaming both the cards are not sufficient but I'm asking this in that budget)

9500GT seems to be good among the two. But since 9500GT comes at 3.5k, you'd better save up a bit and go for Powercolor/Sapphire HD4670 @ 4.2k ~ 4.5k. A better deal and will play most of the games at high settings, at res of 1280x1024...

Think wisely and decide, as just 700 bucks gonna play a big deal here...

I have Linux drivers for HD4850. I downloaded them from their website.

dude help me out, Batman AA crashes after intro movie when m signed in to wLive and doesnt crash but doesnt save when m not signed.. wat a bummer

another [bump]
according to my mobo's specs it supports ONLY ddr2 ram.. a recent benchmark told me i was running ddr2 333mhz rams, now as per my understanding, 333mhz only comes in ddr not ddr2.. then how come this contradictory benchmark?? i dont remember the name right now but i ran one of the two most named tools on forums..

DRAM frequency 333MHZ means 2x333=666(~667) MHZ memory clock, so you're running a 667MHZ RAM.

What are ye'r PC specs.? Does the crashes happen when you meet Gordon? I was havin' crashes no matter if I sign into GFWL or not, I used to get crashes whenever I meet Gordon, with PhysX enabled.

Have you installed the patch v1.1? If not, do it first. And follow these steps. I found this on Eidos forums, credits go to "wekwek" for these steps & for Rocksteady for this awesome game!

Wow thanks for this tip! BTW, you guys may want to try what I did:

1. Rename "Batman Arkham Asylum" folder to "Batman Arkham Asylum 2"
2. Run the v1.1 patch (get it here *forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=95819)
3. Copy everything in the newly created "Batman Arkham Asylum" folder into "Batman Arkham Asylum 2". Overwrite EVERYTHING.
4. Delete "Batman Arkham Asylum" folder
5. Rename "Batman Arkham Asylum 2" back to "Batman Arkham Asylum"
6. Run game and play!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Right now... none. I have Ubuntu 8.04 CD. Installed it, soon after my PC crashed. Never re-installed Linux and never got to use the drivers!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

People, can my GF9800GTX+ hold on to these new games?

ACII
MW2
The Saboteur
Crysis 2 [For sure I'm gettin' this!]

Is this a good time to change the GPU?
