[stingygrrl]

anyone got a working link to the winstone apps?

ATItool can be used for testing the stability of a graphics card. It does not have to be an ATI card. When you run "Scan for artifacts", it heats up the card and you can see if your card is stable or not.

 

[imported_JeReMY]

No one mentioned fraps.

From the individual pages:

"[Insert product] is available only on CD because we do not have permission to post it on the Web from all of the vendors whose applications are integral parts of the benchmark."

Ergo, one must order the CD. $5 per CD seems reasonable.
