So here is my issue any game that I play in TH2G 3 screens I get like a flickering effect color loss and stuff like that. I thought it may be the video cards as they are realising a higher pitch sound when in 3d gaming and I can hear them almost pulsing with the screen when the screen flickers. What makes this an odd issue is that I used fraps and recorded a few of these innicdents and they don't show up they infact look perfect and the way they should be.

I am planning on getting 2 280 GTXs soon so I don't really plan on doing anything till after I get those and see if the issue goes away do you think maybe its the cards? and if it is the cards what do you think spawned this problem? They worked great for a while then just started doing this. Also when in 1600x1200 on 1 screen I don't seem to see the issue at all.


Tried new drivers, beta drivers and old drivers all the same issue. Running Vista 64 Ult. 2 9600 GTs in SLI

:cry:

Quick Edit: Notices that in DX10 Games I don't have any of these issues. Seems to be the DX9 area of the card may be jacked? Is that even possible?

I know from experience that a high pitched noise coming from your GPU when under load can mean a failing VRM. I would imagine your cards, or one of, are faulty. Have you tried it one card only and seen if it works on both individually?

Right now with my upcoming Step-Up I am just gonna hold off. When I ship the first one I will Test and HOPE that the only one that I am not sending isn't faulty or gonna be a sad panda. But that does make sence only thing is why don't I have the issues in DX10 stuff? All DX9 games high pitched sound that pulses with the flashes and such in games. but in DX 10 its perfect and I don't remember a noise Ill have to check that later. Also playing FFXI when in 1 screen mode 1600x1200 no issues at all no noise or anything. Ill to check other games. Merc 2 has no issues in 1600x1200 is that DX10?
