    Artifacting or ?

    Well...tried flashing the card BIOs, and the problem has happened again. Of course it happens when I'm at work...and the computer was rebooted, so I lost that opportunity at a screen shot. Very hard to figure this little bug out. Played WoW last night for 4 hours, no problem. Problem...

    Self Build ~ But, questions remain

    Sorry for not getting back sooner...it was a busy weekend. Juke: I'll be running in 1680x1050 resolution. The twin cards might be a bit overkill, but I figured if I have the money now, might make it so I wont have to upgrade anytime soon. DSF: I've had experience with several PSU's...
