Hey all, I got fed up with artifacts showing constantly in CS Source so I finally took matters into my own hands. I updated drivers, undusted the card and after someone telling me to take the fan off and put new adhesive on, I did that as well. I was CERTAIN it had to be the adhesive because once I took the fan off, the old adhesive was flaking off (not to mention it was the adhesive that came with the card). I put a new spread on and tryed CS again. To my suprise the artifacts were there though a little quicker. I know that if you put to much adhesive it's bad to and i've done plenty of this with mobo's so I know when enough is enough. I was wondering if anybody know's a different reason for something like this to happen? I'm sorry if this post is quite juvenile though i'm not the smartest guy with computers
Thank you all for your help
