Worst problems ive seen since ATidmag ..Ive owned every series and rode through all the Powerplay craps.

Funny if you dont install DRIVER there is no problem under any OS.

Its just plain stuPid.. Had my card for 8hrs now and ready to thow it back to the Sharks.

I just wanted to test a 5series before dumping $650 on a DUal GPU card!!!!!!.. My 3870x2 outperforms this 5770 ATM with less shaders.
If you don't install a driver the card doesn't run high clocks.
