Is it your possible that your card is just faulty and needs an RMA?

the flickering issue you speak of has a work around...just use the new version of rbe.

seems increased voltage in 2d solves the issue....
grey screen issue, never had one on my 5870.... i would rma your card if i were you, check your vrm temps when it grey screens...
so your stating your going to switch to the dark side... i sense the force is weak with you young padawan.... ;)
well i currently have problems with nvidias sh_tty drivers can't install control panel for some reason lol now i regret my choice of not buying 5850
What price did the 8800gtx and the gtx280 launch at? Trying to work out how much to save
It will cost probably like a 5970, so around 750 $
I hope the water blocks are available soon after launch.
currently 5970 is way overpriced because it has no DX11 competition. I don't think Nvidia will be able to practice similar price gouging when they launch the 4XX series.
everybody said the same about the 295 and 285 cards being overpriced cause there was nothing in the same perf class that competed with them, so ati would go for the same or lower prices... but they didnt...
i wouldnt be surprised if nvidia launches fermi at pretty high prices... after all it WILL be the fastest single card solution on the planet, and they need the money... :D
well then that says it all...
it will NOT beat a 5970 and it will probably be as fast as a 295 which costs the same right now, maybe itll be a little faster...
so people can now get 295 performance with a single gpu...
i doubt people on a 295 will upgrade to this... they will probably wait for the dual fermi card. people who get a fermi 480 are probably on a 8800gtx 8800ultra 9800gtx 250 260 275 280 or 285 right now... or they are on a 5850 or 5870...
which troll has been messing with the tags... again. Going against admins is never cleaver
This stayment may be somewhat close to the truth... in current titles. As newer engines and upcomming games using liberal tesselation come about, I fully epect the 480 to pull ahead of the 5870/GTX295 by a fair margin. However where launch titles are concerened and past games, I don't think it will have much of a lead if at all. All this said, I am treating GF100 as a long(er) term invesment, not simply a day 1 upgrade. Nvidia are playing the same card AMD has in the past ( designing a gpu with more shader power vs texture power ; tradtionally they've gone for a more texture heavy approach ) Hopefully it turns out well for everyone.
I personally expect to see the 480 launch at $549 USD. As far as what vendors will actually charge for them intially... who the hell knows :p:
