5700 performance (farcry) - Page 2

funny how when they first released the 5700 I did a 5600/5700 comparision and nobody noticed.

replacing it is easy, I took my gpu out the day I got it just to see if I could (I never told AW that...)

I mod my own drivers for the 5700 becuase NV doesn't release mobile drivers very often, and or AW doesn't keep up. I am running 61.76's with Sm3.0 enabled (I know the NV3x suposedly doesn't support it).

I mean to reply back to this thread, I am running FarCry on "MEDIUM" at 1280 X 1024 and it runs fine, 1600 X 1200 is a bit choppy at times, espically when there is any sort of fog on the screen.

Too bad AW doesn't doesn't give you a few $$ off if you send them the old card back. They could perhaps recycle it and furthermore it wouldn't fetch anything on Ebay if at all.

That actually sounds like fun, I may try it! See how far I can OC'it before it melts down. My other thought was removing the custom components from Nvidia and using their edge connector for another card. I have a mill spec cert for board work and I'm pretty good at electronics.

Time-Pilot, your mission if you choose to accept it:

1. find a NV 6800.
2. find a way to get it to work in the AW GPU module

On another note I finally re-installed adrnalizer today and OC'ed the new 5700, the first pass pulled an impressive 3642, see attached:

What were your settings, and how did you get around the Powermizer power-saving feature?

Settings are 422 engine clock, and 687 on memory. V-sync is disabled, fog table is disabled, everything else is off like AA and AF. And I don't have any issues with the powermiser thing, this was not done on battery.
