Are you using a 120h or 144hz gaming monitor and were you trying to watch a flash video or embedded video?

BF3 is also VERY CPU dependent.

Just found out some interesting stuff about newer revision cards. Not sure about brand new Diamond 7970's (the only other ref card out), but current reference Visiontek HD 7970's can NOT use either the ghz edition bios flash upgrade...

The card needs to be RMA'd. It has nothing to do with the BIOS. There's some component on the card which died.

A sidewinder X4 is a great MEMBRANE gaming keyboard, and quite reliable, but again, it's membrane. It has 11+ key rollover so you will never have to worry about keys getting dropped; a bug in the Microsoft USB keyboard driver prevents...

Yes, if you're running 144 hz, your video card won't downclock all the way; it needs GPU power to run 144hz properly.

Once it's enabled once (without the monitor being unplugged), all you have to do is import the lightboost.bin file into CRU 1.0, to force the three lightboost resolutions, on the AMD card. Then it will work until the monitor is...

Yes but it's still nice to go back to 144 hz and regain the color calibrations through the OSD, when you're not gaming. The lightboost.bin file deletes all of the other resolutions and timings except 100, 110 and 120hz lightboost. Some...
