HeLo!
Just installed some random tv-card on my pc today. Was a present so I thaught I might give it a try!
Well, works quite fine, but the problem is:
It took the last free PCI slot on my motherboard! SO, it's not too comfy in there with the soundcard, WLAN-card and now the TV-card! Basically the Sound card now covers like half of the cooler of the gfx card, which is at the... AGP/PCI-e slot, I actually have no idea what sort of slot it is. I just know it's some gforce 6600.
Alright, I was quite unsure whether the room-problem in my pc would cause some problems or not, but I thaught I'd give it a try. So here I am now, writing this journal after I played 1 SW round of braundorf where I usually get stable 125 fps. had ~ 80 unstable! Reboot didn't help.
Do I have to get rid of my TV-card now to play ET properly again? :<
OR: Does any1 know a tool which can display the GPU/gfx-cardz0r temperature? just installed some nVidia nTune or whatever it's called, can't see anything helpful in this.
THENKS! FLAME ME FLAME! MIDGETFIGHT
