Unable to select "AX 5750 512MD5-H" in rebate registration form

PowerColor — 2010/3/11 下午 12:51:16

Well, this problem is hindering me from registering for my rebate.

I purchased a Powercolor 5750 (the 512MB version) from NCIX lately and am trying to register for the rebate; I'm currently at the registration step, but in the second drop down that allows you to select what card from which series, I only get these cards in the options: AX5770 1GBD5-DH, AX5770 1GBD5-PPG, AX5750 1GBDH-PDH; there is no AX5750 512MD5-H option so I can't register the rebate. Can someone fix this?

I'm not sure where to post this so I just posted it here since there's no specific section for posting website problems.

Many thanks.

Cursor corruption

PowerColor — 2010/3/11 上午 09:25:09

Mouse cursor becomes jumbled, not really sure when, only on primary monitor. Cursor is always ok on 2nd monitor but not on 1st monitor after the problem occurs. No such thing happened with my nVidia card.

Please advise on a fix.

Stability problems with 2x HD4890 in Crossfire

PowerColor — 2010/3/9 上午 05:00:13

About a year ago I purchased a pair of Powercolor HD4890s, part number 1GBD5-UH for use in a Crossfire configuration. E ver since I installed them I've been having inconsistent stability issues. Sometimes my machine will run all day, running various games with nary a problem. Other times I can barely run ANYTHING for more than 15 minutes without my machine freezing up. I can't definitely blame it on the video cards, but the timing seems suspicious. In any event, I'd like to update the BIOS on these cards as they were very early versions and I'm hoping an update will help. Only problem is there doesn't appear to be any BIOSes for these cards available from the Powercolor site. Anyone know where I can get updates for this card? Please?

Thanks in advance.

Overclocking the Powercolor 5850 PCS+ (AX5850 1GBD5-PPDHG)

PowerColor — 2010/3/7 上午 05:28:52

Hi,
I recently bought a 5850 pcs+ and found that while the cooling solution is great, the video card's poor ability to overclock renders it pointless.
While catalyst control center allows for a range of up to 875 on the gpu and 1225 on the memory, the card becomes very unstable when set near those ranges. An example is when playing games like Mass Effect 2 or Battlefield Bad Company 2, where it would have random crashes and freezing.
At first I thought it was because the clock speeds I set it at - 875/1150 (gpu/mem) - was too high of a setting, but when the clock settings are at the default settings of 760/1050 the card would still cause random freezing and crashes.
The only solution I have found to prevent freezing and crashes was by lowering the clock speeds below the factory settings to 725/1000.
Having purchased the powercolor 5850 pcs+ over a cheaper HIS 5850 (reference card) because of its higher factory clock speed and what should have been a greater allowance in overclocking I hope some sort of bios update can be released that will solve these stability issues.

Thanks.
