Dell 3008wfp Rev A03 Issues
Hi all. Hopefully, someone here will be of assistance as chat was utterly useless. Here's my situation. I have the monitor noted in the subject line and I also have my previous monitor still, the 3007wfp-hc.
For vid cards, I have dual ATI Sapphire Radeon 4870 X2's in crossfire. The games I'm playing are Aion, Dungeons and Dragons Online, and Star Trek Online. All games play fine on the 3007. No issues. On the 3008, I get lots of artifacts in Aion and Star Trek. I can't even play those games due to the amount of graphical issues. The games play fine on other pc's and as I've mentioned, they all play fine on the 3007. I've tried lowering the resolution and using windowed mode, all to no avail.
Are there any other items that I could try to troubleshoot what may be going on here?

Look at the monitor cable your using. It must be DVD-D Dual Link, not DVI-D Single Link.

Test it with CrossfireX disabled.

It seems odd that Dungeons and Dragons Online plays fine on the 3008WFP but the other two do not.

Exactly. What I found with some further investigation is that Aion and Star Trek Online are a bit more graphically intensive, however, so that could contribute to why that is.
