    Please can someone help me ?

    Sup people,
    My current rig is as follows:

    Amd Athlon 64 3500+
    BFG 7800GT OC (With Arctic Cooler Fan)
    2 gig Corsair PC3200
    320gb Sata
    OCZ Modstream PSU (450Watt)

    Im currently running the 81.98 drivers and I was just wondering which Graphics Card drivers would be best for my 7800GT. If these are the best drivers out there then it doesnt really matter, but a little more performance wouldnt hurt (In SF for example)

    Thanks,
    Sir. Karl

    hi m8 well this may or may not help u (cus u may av tryed it )
    but that card is powersupply hungry ive seen it loads of times and with those specs u shouldnt have any trouble with ur games but.......
    i highly recomend u get 500+watt powersupply asap
    do u av a dvd drive and a dvd burner(basacally 2 drives)and extra fans?
    this all takes power and i sure the 7800gt uses alot of power,also defrag regulary helps with this common problem.hope this helps

      i have a 6600gt and on the box it says 300watt powersupply minimum,as we all no the minimum should be doubled becuse the minimum is basacaly a cpu running the minimum 300 watt not a cpu with fast prosseser and 2 drives and 2 hd and fans ect,it kinda like the minmum spec on the back of a game we all no that if u want to play them on high u need to double those specs or higher even.

          and 70% of cases its power supply and poor disk managment,so there one from blade.verzilli TF that u might not like

            I dont get low FPS, i get around 80 - 96 ish but when playing SF i drop to crap FPS and I dont think its my PSU thats the problem I was just wondering if there were any extra drivers. The minimum Watt PSU is 400W for a 7800GT I believe

              ok if i must,you acually have a decent psu but youre card isnt psu hungry like a nvidia in my opinon ati are made for more fps rather than nvidia's better gfx quality,most nvida are power supply hungry unlike some of there ati counter parts,my tip for u is to get a mboard with sli and put 7800gt in sliu mode with ur 350 power supply and watch ur fps drop..hope that clears it up for u

                sorry to hear that about youre mother,anyhows m8 i wasnt ordering ppl to get a 500watt and there around 30pounds in uk up to 70 for 680watt,i was just saying that most cases when a high spec pc isnt behaving like it should do,its normally a custom rig and a lot of ppl forget to get a new psu.not trying to disrispect you just trying to help fellow nvida players

                        Re: Please can someone help me ?

                        about a week ago i had a cpu come in
                        specs........
                        amd64 3000
                        1.5gig ram ddr400
                        160gb hd
                        gforce 6600

                        and it woulndt play with 81 drivers but worked fine with 77.30
                        same prob as u with the low fps in SF i removed the 81 driver and put 77.72 drivers from the bf2 disk and the stutering and low fps were gone,i came to the conclusion that the lastest drivers arent always the best option.hope this helps
