Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/11/27 03:07 I have a problem getting this card to work wih 3D, everytime I boot up my computer everything is fine, but when I run a program that uses 3D features such as a game, I get tearing and all kind of weird stuff on the screen. When I turn off my computer for like 5 mintues or so and turn it back on, everything is back to normal until I run a 3D program that uses the 3D feature, could it be overheating?

Re:Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/11/27 18:36 Okay, so you know that that card is designed for workstation operations, meaning rendering and OpenGL 3D modelling? It is not designed for gaming? Just making sure about that. Secondly you got this card as a new card or already a long or second hand? Was the card doing the same all the time? If it is a new one then I really wouldn't bother much but return it to the shop and get a replacement, most likely it has a memory chip issue giving artifacts at default operation.

Re:Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/11/28 02:25 Well, I removed the heatsink and fan assembly and installed a water cooling unit on the board. The only thing that I think is not cooling might be the memory, cause the GPU block only cools the CPU and I had to use ram heatsinks to cool the memory. The ram heatsinks doesn't have any thermal pads on them. Could that be the problem?

Re:Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/11/28 11:20 Could be, but that is hard to tell. So that means you are only experiencing this issue once you setup the water cooling? You didn't have the issue with the standard, default cooling solution?

Re:Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/12/06 03:25 Well it worked for a while when I have water cooling all setup and then in a week, I get the artifacts on the screen and the 3D feature doesn't seem to work. Plus do you guys have the PNY Quadro FX4500 BIOS lying around? I might try flashing it.

Re:Quadro FX4500 workstation card, giving 3D major problems? - 2007/12/31 13:06 Strange, but that sounds more like an issue with the card and you might just need to return it to get a replacement and since those are very expensive cards that is what I should do as soon as possible. An no we don't have the BIOS laying around, and we really don't think that reflashing will fix anything...
