No gaming on 6956 ??

Mitch

How does 7000 stack up for gaming?

Currently I´m playing with the 6801 x64. After having some issues with the sound drivers, I´m able to play Need for Speed Underground flawlessly. Anyway the Flight Simulator X still is quiet and the Windows games like Minesweeper looks like this:



You can't see this in the screenshot, but the highlighted square is not the one under the mouse cursor. This problem also happens in the cards games, but I hope that this will be solved in the next builds. The major problem is with the FSX. Looks that the sound driver is not working properly, although it was working very well under XP x86.

the compatibilities on windows 7 build 7000 is the same on build 6956.

hi all......:)

i have been playing around with 6956 for a few hours now, just setting it up, updated the drivers & i finally got round to gaming & i cant game AT ALL...?? they install ok & launch, but just disappear, no error....nothing.

i tried my benchmarks & its the same deal, it just wont render anything complex...??

this will be a real bummer if they never got round to building the necessary parts to game...

so i just need confirmation, has anyone gamed on 6956 yet..?? or been able to run anything more complex than Aero...lol
