Asus AH3650 best drivers (yes another thread :P)

valouris · Dec 13, 2008, 12:28 AM

Hello, I have the following system configuration:

Abit IC7 MAX3
Pentium 4 Prescott 3Ghz
2x512 ddr ram 400mhz
and i just upgraded to an asus ah3650 silent 512mb agp
Win XP Pro SP3

I am having trouble finding out which drivers are the best for my graphics card, and I have no idea what is the deal with the agp hotfix or any of the new drivers for that matter, and I could not figure it out.

So lets say I am having a format and a clean install of everything. What drivers/utilities/hotfixes do i have to install for it to work perfectly?

I know this has been asked a lot since I have been reading about problems of this card, but i didnt manage to find a definitive solution/thread in any site. Please help me out here, I am starting to think I wasted 70 euros down the drain. Thanx

Have you tried any of the newer AGP hotfix drivers? This is the latest one.

AMD Customer Care

It should work. If not then you just have to try an older one.

What about the driver on the cd that came with the card? Doesn't that work? If you don't have it you can find it by following this link and chosing your card.

If this is not what you're asking for you have to clearify a bit more.

I am asking from other users with my card, (or any agp 3xxx card for that matter) which drivers did they find had the best performance and no problems :P

ive had a Sapphire 3650 512mb ddr2 for about 6 months with a virtually identical system to yours and i find the keeping the most up to date agp hotfix drivers installed works the best for me, since there are still improvements to the 3xxx series performance occasionally and bugfixes for newer games are always nice.
