Is your game updated with the latest patch? AFAIR, it was included in the last patch. And probably you have to run some benchmark.exe or like.

Ya, it is not patched. Ok, thanks.

 

[Skud]

You are welcome.

Guys 3dmark11 runs and after completing benchmark shows this error 'C:/Program.DLL is missing. Reinstall the programme to fix it'. I reinstalled and still error is there. Any solution?

And rchi, max and asingh and others, post AVP bench too. I will do it tomorrow.


BTW i finished bc2 and last missions were best . The game rocks. Waiting for b3.

Hi Jas

Maybe your antivirus is blocking the program. Try suspending them or adding 3D mark to list of "safe" programs..

@skud
temps these days were 77c in bad company and dirt3.
fine for this gpu.

will install side panel fan and exhaust soon.

my cpu reaches 65c

@baba
thanks for link.

here is the site i was talking -
How To Choose the Right Anti-Aliasing Mode for Your GPU - Tested

8xQ CSAA, for example, increases the number of color samples from four back to eight – just as you’d get with 8xMSAA – but with less of a performance hit.

Nice link.

These darn powercuts. Was going to game after 1.5 days due to exam and a powercut happened
bench delayed again.

@skud
stock.

[mobile post]

BTW a problem. I received a hdmi cable with card. But when i use it, the display doesnt fit to full screen. Also auto adjust option of monitor gets disabled. Any solution?

 

[Omi]

Check the monitor for any modes, Happens with me when I connect my pc to my TV
When in game mode it doesnt go full screen leaving slight borders. You can also use the scaling option in ATI catalyst (worked for me)

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

omi thanks.

guys a couple of problems.
1. i ran unigine heaven benchmark. at extreme tessellation and all other high settings but after completing stage 26, the display shut down and system was running. verified it second time too.
2. now 3d mark 11 shows an error that a application interferes and it forces it to shut down. (i installed it in different drive now).

@skud
now temps were 73-74C AT 850Mhz/1300Mhz while running heaven at extreme tessellation. fan profile set to auto. and in avp around 75c.

BTW aliens vs predator at 850Mhz/1300Mhz -
