Well any crad that is a newer serious then your 8500 and thats clocked faster.

Try using ntunes from nvidia.

Yeah, newer Nvida card. But also check your power supply. I know when I put this 7800 in I also need to upgrade my power supply. I had 350 watts and now I think its 500 watts

Does you vid card need the 6 pin power connector trouble?



Yea the pwr supply does help.

[Grim_35]

do you guys think this is a good gaming vidio card? PCI Express 2.0
9800 GT with 600MHz clock
1GB of GDDR3 memory
900MHz clock with 1800MHz effective memory rate and 1500MHz shader clock
Full DirectX 10 and Open GL 2.1 Support

Sounds real good. Make sure you have PCI 2.0 supported on your mboard. And if the card requires make sure you power supply have the extra 6 pin pci-E connector.
