Maybe it's just me. Seems to only use half the ram in xp. Seems to work well though.
To top it off, ATI does a great job on "customer support". Heed this warning. DO NOT WASTE $[.]. There's not much else anyone can say about it. Go with Nvidia.
This card sucks. This card WILL BLUE SCREEN on you. They never answer your calls, (or return them for that matter) and when your computer crashes, ATI never seems to come up with a patch that will fix it's product. I've learned my lesson. DO NOT BUY THIS CARD.
It's hot, noisey, and extremely unstable. on this piece of crap.
i play a lot so mine got relly hot and diedand it didnt die right away it dies slowly every day you use it i guessthe hotting kills the perfomance everytime you use it well mine is death now
also BEWARE diamond requires you to register the product within 30 days of your purchase or else the warranty is toast. card is fast don't get me wrong, but it runs EXTREMELY EXTREMELY HOT be sure to enable manual fan control and set the fans to atleast 60% or else you'll get random BSOD's (blue screen of death) My computer wont even run stable for 30 min without it restarting on it's own and my fans are set at 100%. STAY AWAY FROM DIAMOND spent over $[.]. for a video card that lasted for less than 2 months. If your looking for a reliable card this is NOT your card i'd pref a card such as MSI, Asus, Visiontek, HIS.
I've had this unit for over 3 weeks and so far all I can say is.this card rocks hard. Im already getting blistering frame rates on all my games WOW especially even crysis at 1600x1200 runs flawlessly, I havent had any lockups or problems with card I would definitely recommend.I also installed Xpertool to adjust the fan speed since the onboard control is glitchy, otherwise I love my new video card.its so worth the money.
