Your post is wrong on so many levels and I will not discuss them here on this forum...but I will say that the problem is not "social spending" but the Trillions of Dollars our government hands out each year in Corporate Welfare and Largess. You wonder what made America great? Subsidies! I...

While Nvidia's drivers were not bug free, they were fewer and there were usually more complete drivers that existed that were fairly recent. Mostly, I just never had the annoyances and I tend to fiddle with driver things far far less often (as in I'd go months without messing with drivers with...

680's...nice!

And it only has a 1-year warranty... That's crazy.

I am having the same issue with a Radeon 7850, it doesn't do it all the time but when it does only C-A-D will wake it. My psu is an Antec 550 (3-rail, even) and I've had no other power issues at all. <KOW> This reminds me of the old shutdown bug in Windows '98/2000/XP, and I'd be willing to...

I was using the new Beta driver 13.11 and thought to rollback to 13.10 before turning in. Well it worked, it saved the profile in CCC with all the 2D/3D changes I made. It booted up just fine and is running steady at 500/750(x4). Occasionally I see a hiccup in GPU-Z showing me a temporary...

Creating a new profile worked, but CCC won't save it and neither will GPUTweak I've been playing with both for several hours now. CCC does offer a a right-click option to enable it from the tray, but it boots to default values. With GPUTweak I have to open the entire program and enable the...

Thank you Soh, looks like just what I'm looking for. I will give this a try and post back later... Again, TY.

D/L site says RBE is "no longer in active development" due to signature requirements in newer Radeon cards, and cards after 6870 are no longer supported. Figures huh...AMD "unlocks" their CPUs but locks their GPUs! Go Figure. Thanks Sohaltang, I'm sure there has got to be a way to do it.

I just want to know if there is a hack or other tool (like PhenomMsr Tweaker for CPUs) that can change the clock steppings on the Radeon 7000 series. I'd like to boost the startup plateau from 300/150 to something a bit higher and I'm using a Powercolor Radeon 7850 2GB. I know the voltage...

Out of curiosity, what do you run now for a vidcard? I think you said you're using Crossfire, are they 7970's? Any opinion on the new R2xx's coming out?

Of course nV has its own 200+Mb downloads for their drivers, so it's six of one and half of another in the case of perhaps unnecessary code within each. I used to use RivaTuner everything and thought it worked great. When support for it died I got used to the few settings offered in the nV...

Thank you very much. I installed both after uninstalling CCC and MOM and don't think I'm missing anything at all. In fact, after having spent the weekend pretty much glued to Process Explorer, I'd have to say that both CCC and MOM appear to be bloatware. Again, great advice and thank you.

This is one of the reasons I want the 7850, I believe it supports higher display resolutions than the nVidia cards I would normally consider...but are out of my price range. I got a very good deal on this 7850, it has a much better p/p ratio than any nVid card that I can, or cannot afford today...

I think I've seen the microstutter already, and I'm only running a single card. I think I will live with it, but I ask myself if it is a driver or hardware issue. I'm more inclined to believe a driver because the architecture has changed so much over the years. BTW: I uninstalled CCC and...
