    Graphics card causing hardware interrupts?

    I am having a problem with my new graphics card. It is a BFG 7300 with turbo cache. The card is 256mb and the turbo cache takes another 256 out of my 2 gigs of system memory. I have an Athlon 4000+. When I play games the CPU gets loaded with hardware interrupts. I was thinking it might be because the graphics card is using the Athlon’s memory controller. Could this be true? What is causing all the hardware interrupts? Its there a way to disable turbo cache?
