    I'm looking more for fixes related to:

    - Once a display on Display Port is turned off, the driver reconfigures the desktop, removing it from an extended configuration entirely (thanks)
    - No more random flickering on 5000 series cards when using an extended desktop
    - Way to switch between an extended and eyefinity desktop that actually works

    Hoping that some of those made it in.
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Rule 3:
    When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Random Tip o' the Whatever
    You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

    Main difference I have noticed between nv and ATI since I switched has been drivers, the ati ones just seem a bit half baked. Issues with over clocking and multiple displays, poor 120hz support, that sabatour stuff

    Doesn't raising the 2D clocks fix that?

    Is the Powerplay issue solved? Had to go back to 9.11 because with 9.12 the PC would lock up with a weird bluescreen with vertical stripes...
    Notice any grammar or spelling mistakes? Feel free to correct me! Thanks

    It makes it better, but it never goes away it would seem. I'd try overclocking and seeing if that helped even further, but my card can't overclock at all.
