    I'm having alot of problems with the card so far. Texture and character models aren't rendernig properly. I'm currently downloading a third set of drivers.

    Would the fact that its overclocked be an issue?

    was 2 day sale only. Really good price for the card, considering they're trying to shift 5200's for 159!

    They had some other good deals i probably should have mentioned, 128mb USB key for €20, nortan security suite (virus protection, firewall, privacy control etc etc) for €37.49...thats all i can remember now...

    Doubt it, its only oc'd by 25mhz or something, they're said to be good for 6800 speeds (obv. you've got less pipelines, so performance wouldnt match).

    Did you completly uninstall ur old graphic drivers before you installed the new ones? Use driverCleaner from Guru3d.com

    Its grand, sorted it out.
    Apperently there was a problem with this card and the new nVidia drivers, got a fix for it.
    Google is my friend.

    Ps. The card is freakin sweet.
