I Installed a new FX5700 today REPLACING the old old Nvidia GF2 TI which ran HL2 fair with no real problems but it looked like Crap and lacked good FPS ....... I dont care about having a monster machine at this point I am in the process of building that But I would like to play Half-life 2 until that point ......
The Problem I have ran into is when i now try to play I get white streaks / colored lines and artifacts all over
I have Installed all new drivers BOTH Nvidia drivers / Omega Drivers I did the uninstall for each set and Used
a Driver cleaner before installing a new set to be sure all traces was removed I have only 1 video card in my sys config / and removed all traces of the old card before installing the new card I did a fresh install of XP & SP2 less then a week ago I tried setting at low / high / Etc I have Direct X 9 installed even though its running in 8.1 ; Half-life 2 / CS / farcry all run about the same way here is my setup and everything installed that might help the OMEGA Drivers and NVIDIA Drivers was the new ones out.................

I'm having the same problem I'm getting about 35fps on my fx5700. I got that on my mx440. WTF mate?
 
Well, the 5700 isn't a great card. And your fps isn't only determind by your graphics card.

I'd blame overheating/faulty card for the graphic glitches.
 
the 5700 is a great card! i use a 5700Ultra but still....that sounds like you got a bad card. Can you take it back to the distributor for a replacment? (BEst Buy, Wal-mart *snicker, snicker* Circuit City)?
 
the card works fine and works in game. Everythiung looks great but the fps is down thats all. Unfortunately I got it off pricewatch.com
