Eh, even I got the same thing when I collide, and all this time I thought its a feature or bug of the game. :shock:

Do it really relates to the card anyway?

A stock and OC, with all the driver updates, with a genuine game. I guess that's a bug, nothing more.

When there's no other problem in no other games, who cares? I have some weird problems with CMR4 too, looks like Codies have some unique features/bugs in their games. ;)

@ Jaskanwar Singh - just edit the config file located in benchmark result dir - no need to run the exe with any command line option but I've used this config file method two or three times only - for regular benches the AVP tool is much more better as I'm not on Win 7 now can't tell exactly about it.

Your UPS just can't take the load of the and that's why it's unable give proper backup - the battery may be weak.

If all games are running just fine with gpu OC and all the mem modules installed then you've a nice and stable OC - congrats and enjoy the extra performance in games ;-)

TP metro2033 bench at highest settings was stable at 900/1400 stock volt but BC2 Upriver unstable. BC2 is running stable at 890/1375 stock volt.

^^ I don't think there will be much difference in performance between 900/1400 and 890/1375 and it look like you have hit the sweet spot of the gpu using stock volts which is 890/1375 ;-)
