All nVidia G84 and G86 silicone bad!
Posted this in the Tech Chat Arena as well, thought it good to post here as well.
This is the latest problem to hit nVidia, and it's a big problem. First it was uproar over hacked video drivers to skew 3D Mark scores. Then it was no DX10.1 support. Now it's bad silicone in all the video cardsa and onboard video for the 8300 thru 8600 series. All Nvidia G84 and G86s are bad - The INQUIRER. Good thing the XFX 8600 card I have has a lifetime warranty! Chris.
