Alright. Ever since I got my new mobo, e6600, and 2gigs of DDR2, my graphics card has been giving me massive amounts of artifacts in EVERY single game I played. I am an ***** since I hadn't checked the voltages earlier.
Apparently, everest says it should have +12v, but I only have +1V !!!
This did not happen with my older computer. The molex connector that came with the video card is connected properly and all. I tried using one that is sticking out from the PSU, but unfortunately it doesn't work (theres 6 .. lines on the PSU one, instead of the 5-line molex that came with the video card).
Is there something I can do to correct this thing? I've reinstalled drivers, reformatted, reseated the video card, etc.
And no, my PSU isn't malfunctioning since all other voltages are normal.
Specs:
7900GT 256mb
500W PSU
2gb ddr667
e6600
160GB HDD
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3
I've heard that the gigabyte mobo has some power issues... can't find a solution though.

Did some tests...
It's not the PSU. I plugged the vid card into another seperate PSU and it still showed +1v only.
It's not the power connector either.
What else could cause the problem, besides the video card itself, or the motherboard?
