Exclamation Possible faulty MSI 6970? - 05-12-2012, 15:48 | posts: 1

Hey everyone!

So i bought a new MSI 6970 from OverclockersUK the other day, and it hasn't been performing anywhere near as well as my old 6950 (was returned due to loud coil whine)

BF3 constantly drops below 30FPS on Ultra (AA off) and when set to high, medium or low, suffers very bad microstuttering. I've tried various drivers (12.1 upwards) but nothing seems to be helping GPU temperatures are around 60c and CPU never reaches 50c when playing BF3 so overheating can be rules out.

I just ran a Furmark benchmark. Here are my settings and results:



Any replies are greatly appreciated
