They say there is no fool like an old fool!! A few weeks ago I installed a program from AVG called PC Tune-Up. It has an option to select from Economy, Standard or Turbo. I had selected Turbo which among other things like shutting down unnecessary programs had also adjusted the the power saving...
My I7 930@2.8GHz is overclocked to 4000 kHz. When not running a game it used to run at 2800kHz or thereabouts. Latterly it is always running at the o/c speed which does not seem to be causing any problems but it is obviously running hotter and presumably using more juice.
I have not touched...

Prior to this GPU I had a GF7800GTX which ran all games OK. I changed to the current card to obtain better performance and support for a new 22" lcd monitor.
I didn't run a driver cleaner because I read somewhere on this site that the current nVidia installer for the newer drivers...
Since installing a BFG GF9600GT card I have been unable to get any OpenGL games to run. These are not just older games but some more recent ones. I defrag daily (in the background) and always have the latest nVidia WHQL drivers installed.
All games and applications running DirectX run very...
tThanks for the replies guys.
The reason for my request is that I have a rather old Rail Simulation game that I used to be able to play on my previous graphics card 7800gtx. Since upgrading my screen and graphics card (9600GT) I have not been able to play the old game which is OpenGL and...
Hi guys
Is it possible to use 2 cards as seperate entities using the 2 slots of a pci MB? I would like to use my GT9600 as my main card using DVI output and a GF 7800gtx as an analogue device in the 2nd pci express slot. I would connect to my Samsung 2232BW utilising its DVI and analogue...

I am on windows XP with all service packs and my graphics card is BFG GeForce 9600GT.
Is this problem with the card and can it...
Thanks for your response. I have done as you suggested and have updated the drivers to 175.19. I have not made any adjustments to any settings either in the control panel or in ntune as I guess you may perhaps wish to offer further advice!
However the changes thus far have made no differences...
Hi guys
I have a GF9600GT card which performs very well on DirectX games but seems to have problems with OpenGL games. I sometimes cannot even load them or if I can they run at 1fps! I have the latest drivers 174.74 installed. Are there any known problems with this card and OGL? All the OGL...
