Radeon users: Are you experiencing visual corruption with advanced lighting on HIGH?





I have a x1950PRO and am noticing weird visual corruption (black dots) on the screen with advanced lighting on HIGH. I don't have this problem with lighting on Low, Medium or Off. Another member here (Luciano) has the same problem with a x1950XT as can be seen in this thread: HERE

An example of the visual corruption:


Does anyone have this problem, or know how to fix it?

I have dual 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GTX cards.....

But seriously, I don't know much of anything about ATI Radeon, since I've always stuck with Nvidia.  Someone posted a while back about a problem with a video card doing something similar to this though.  Noel suggested something about the card may be overheating, or the card may just not be able to handle the graphics.  I don't know.  How does your card perfom with other games with next-gen graphics?  The same, better, worse?
Some day, someone will best me.  But it won't be today, and it won't be you.

Well I know for sure that it isn't overheating. It reaches 55-60C under load (depending on ambient temperatures). My card has an aftermarket cooler and I have good airflow in my case. Also I don't have any problems with other games, NFS, Oblivion, FEAR, HL2 all run fine.

What do you have for a 3d accelerator?  The only thing I can think of at this point is to try to find a new driver (not always out in the open...  I searched for days for a new one with my old laptop), overclock it, or call tech support.

Just bumping this back up. The new Catalyst 7.5 Driver fixes the problem. Less stuttering in the frame-rates, and better looking shadows.

ahh cool!  I thought my x1950 pro was being a dog during this game.  gracias :D

No problem. The driver also comes with a free game offer (Half Life 2: Lost Coast). Pretty cool if you don't already have the game.
