I get graphics corruption if I don't use the two together, I would suggest new kernel + graphics update, or old kernel and no update.

As I asked in the other 512mb video card thread, what does Darwin show as your video cards RAM? 512mb or 256mb?

If 256mb, search for my A8N32-SLI, 7300GT thread for details on flashing your video cards RAM so that it will work properly with OSX.

I'm guessing your problem is tied to the sse2 then.

The issue is resolved: i put my old geforce 7300gl and now no graphic distortion. the only thing that doesn't work is World of Warcraft - iguess some OpenGL problem.

Where can i chek opengl status?
