Im having trouble with what I think is failing video memory. Textures will appear on screen where they shouldnt be and are somewhat static after they appear. Ive gone the more cooling route and have gotten load temps (with a house fan blowing on the open case) down to 50c at load and it still screws up. Im wondering though...can I increase timings on the memory in the bios for stability or even reduce the amount of ram I use? My hopes on the latter is that maybe only 1 chip is bad and I would be happy with say 256 ram instead of 512. Its almost a paperweight as the video card really is only fit to run the desktop atm. Thanks.
