Off topic, but don't go too far overboard - after all, we are watching...heh.

I'm wondering.. this card should have the following clocks: Core: 380MHz Momery: 680MHz

In Rage 3D tweak I show the default clocks set to: Core: 378MHz [b]Memory: 337MHz


Memory clock seems a bit low doesn't it?

Remember, the memory is listed at double (b/c it's DDR), so 337x2 =674, which given rounding errors and the like, is close enough to 680 spec speed.

And yeah, it might just be a fubar'd card. If you have similar issues on a new one, I'd suspect a voltage issue, although it is unlikely.....

First problem, you bought a bulk OEM card.

Ouch.

Or a brand spankin refurbished one in my experience (not a video card though).
