So I my parents surprised me by buying me a 7950 gt nvidia card and just installed it. I have all the drivers working on there, newest ones and everything. The card is getting enough power, I have 575 watt power supply and its hooked up to it. The problem is when I try to run any game (battlefield 2 or oblivion) it won't let me set anything higher than medium settings which is crazy since my old card was a 6800 gt. I tried evga tech support and they are pretty much worthless. After we checked to make sure that I had the latest driver they really didn't know what to do. Also I ran a benchmark test with Performance 6.0 and usually i come out with a total score of 645 for my machine but now it has dropped to about 603. EVGA says its not the card and they want me to go back to old drivers which i did and it still doesn't work. So any ideas from you guys?
Other than send this one back and get a 6800 or a 6600 ultra which I'm probably going to do for a 6600 when they come out (since evga has that just send it back in and pay the difference deal) but I would like this one to last me until then.
as always +1 for any help.
