just got a refurb sapphire 9800pro from new egg for $166 , I installed card and drivers and seemed to work fine. then i started up halo to see how it looked, and was fine in 2d then when 3d started up it went crazy with spikes and pixels, so i unistalled and reinstalled drivers like 4 times still no help. then i lowered the memory down to 314 from 337.5 and it is running stable @ 380/314 any higher it started to pixelate.
3dmark03 is 5217.
the question is should i rma this card or is this acceptable for price i paid ? and is this expected for a refurbed card , seems to me it should at least run the speced clock speed..
