First my specs:
AMD Athlon XP 2.0Ghz
768mb DDRAM
Geforce FX 5600 128 mb(non-ultra)
40 GB seagate HD
Windows XP with SP-1
300W PSU
I bought an Inno3D Geforce FX 5600 128 mb and thought I'm gonna kick some *** with today's soon-to-be-scrapped directX8 games. That's until i inserted my video card into the AGP, installing the latest Forceware 53.0 drivers and played my games. I observed random glitches and image distortion on different areas of the screen, most noticeable on NBA Live 2004 wherein an artifact would appear distorting the crowd animations and such. Please help, i've done everything from reinstalling the drivers to formatting and its same. I'm thinking of replacing my psu, would that fix the glitches? Is it a power problem? How much power does this damn card requires?
