radeon x1700 help

seraphdd · Jul 14, 2009, 11:59 AM

When ever I play a 3d game it works good for about the first 10-20 minutes then all of a sudden the models start having weird shapes come off them and my performance starts to go way down. (fps down). Will post a screen shot soon.

Also this happens on WOW and CS source and source mods.

I have used many drivers and it still happens.

edit : the weird black lines coming off the first player model and the ones coming off lights, they are not suppose to be there. They are not always black its what ever they are "stretching off of" and this is a minor one some times they are worse and cause my fps to be like 10 and unplayable. Like I said the first 10 minutes are fine playing then this shit happens. Has happened since I bought the computer 2 years ago, I have reformatted and updated drivers many times still happens.

jandarsun8 · Jul 14, 2009, 03:58 PM

What's the rest of the system specs? Might help us determine the issue.

Intel centrino duo core

What are your temps like?

And yes I am moving this to the Mobility forum and welcome to DH

seraphdd · Jul 14, 2009, 09:56 PM

I do not know my temps but the thing is restarting will fix it for 20 minutes some times even a map change or a restarting the game will fix it so it doesn't seem like a temp thing unless switching maps lowers the temp for 20 minutes.

It is a place to start troubleshooting.

so my video card isnt showing up on that program

seraphdd · Jul 16, 2009, 08:35 AM

each core of the processer is running at 81 C and 177 F the thrm is also at about 80 C 181 F

actually the cores are at 90C when playing and the thrm is at 100 c while playing.

Mac Daddy · Jul 16, 2009, 09:25 PM

What is your GPU at or does it show it?

seraphdd · Jul 17, 2009, 12:51 AM

does not show

seraphdd · Jul 18, 2009, 01:05 AM

helpppp

Mac Daddy · Jul 18, 2009, 09:24 AM

I wish your card had a sensor be nice to see what its running at. Can you post the temps from all the available sensors for us using that program?

Ambient temps will cause BSOD issues as well concerning RAM and VRAM.

taojintianxia · Jul 20, 2009, 05:43 AM

my x1600 has the same problem...

seraphdd · Jul 21, 2009, 10:31 AM

I did post all temps

THRM 89C
CORE # 0 84 c
CORE #1 84 C
HDD 58C

Trying turning the details way down and see if it causes ths problem still. Sometimes if you don't stress the vid card as much it might fix the problem. Then at least we would know it is a heat issue.

seraphdd · Jul 23, 2009, 11:05 PM

I tried it. Does not work.

Mac Daddy · Jul 24, 2009, 07:56 AM

Well about out of ideas on what you can try mate. The artifacts like you are experiencing are usually caused by overclocking or heat. Most commonly it is a sign that the GPU and VRAM are not communicating properly.

seraphdd · Aug 3, 2009, 06:29 PM

Well how do I fix that O.o
