I bought my VisionTek HD2600 Pro 512MB from best buy on black friday. The car is fast comparing cost and performance. i can run source with res set to 1280 by 1024 and have model at high , texture at high , shaders at low ( i think they are useless) , water at simple reflection (useless as well) , shadow at high , color correction enabled , msaa at none anisotropic at trilinear , hdr at full if available.
i get over 80 fps in all the maps for source except in custom maps i get over 150..
what does color correction do and does it have an effect on my performance if i turn it on

WHAT IM HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING IS THAT WHY DO I I GET THE SAME FPS AT EVERYTHING LOW EVEN THE RES , WELL I GAIN PROLLY BOUT 10 FPS OR SO... btw i can run any game on my pc with the highest settings :) even crysis.. but with 18 fps but the rest of the games range from 45 fps to 205 fps

also , i was looking at my card today and i noticed that if i touch 2 of the capacitors , they move i thought they were supposed to be in place and held tightly... they aren't that loose.. just when u touch them they move easily... other than that the card is fine...

here is a pic of what im talking bout
