    i ran the ati tool for 33min on the 3d photo it says no erros and when i check the log i dont see anything that would say bad pixel or Artifacts found, well my question is can i see Artifacts while playing games and how and how does it look like?

    is there any screenshots that someone has with Artifacts on their screen?

    Memory artifacts look like little dots. Core artifacts look like someone started streching pieces of a 3D model all over the place.

    I merged your threads, they're not that different. In the future, could you upload the images instead of posting them on the forums? It adds horizontal scrolling which really isn't pleasant.

    Are those your temperatures?

    hmm...wierd. should the clock under 3D thing always be counting when finding the max (on any version)?

    what is wrong with my laptop? haha. when i click the Mem button on .24, it says the card isnt support. i guess thats a start to my problem
