I just bought a Sapphire Radeon 9550 256 meg vid card to replace my Radeon 9700 128 meg card but I am running into a problem when I try to run the new one ( 9550 ) at 8x agp, sometimes the card shuts off or I get the bsod and have to reboot. It works fine in 4x agp but I lose noticeable frame rate when playing Far Cry or evn Tiger Woods 2005 in that mode. I have a Soyo KT600 Dragon plus ver.1 m/b with a gig of pc2100 ram. According to the Soyo site, the board only supports 1.5 v cards but I can't seem to find much info on the Sapphire site about the 9550 ie: voltages etc ... Can anyone help ? Or is the Radeon 9550 not a good choice for that board compared to the 9700 even if the ram is more ?
