    This is the only game that shows artifacts, after a random interval of time.

    Any way to fix it?

    It's been a long time since I played BF3. But does the artifact show with 310.33 ??

    I haven't tried, should I? 306.97 were the first drivers I ever installed, and the 310.33 were the second ones. I'll try 306.23 right now and report back.

    i'm not trying to insult your intelligence or anything but humor me is your card overclocked or anything....just trying to figure out why your artifacting. Also does it do this in any other gpu intensive games or do you not play any other then bf3.

    No problem, I didn't really expect anyone to be able to read my mind and I haven't provided much info.

    No other games do it. I've tried a few, such as crysis, devil may cry 4 (something like 6 hours straight, even), Stalker COP, Vampire bloodlines, and the Heaven benchmark (left for a few cycles). No games show any problems whatsoever.

    I also have the MSI power edition, which comes overclocked by default, but I haven't touched any settings. In fact, I did try overclocking it for fun (just +80/+200MHz) and it worked, but wasn't worth it, so I set to to default.

    Temps are usually around 30ºC idle and up to 80ºC in load.

    This is what it looks like, too:

    I only have mesh quality on ultra.

    I've never seen texture problems like that in BF3. Do the textures look like this all the time or does it only happen after playing for a little while?

    I'd almost guess your game install is corrupted, have you tried to reinstall it?

    It's artifacts because it's always random. This didn't happen with my 5870, and I haven't touched my game folder since then. Can happen in the first 20 minutes or not at all for hours.

    are u using Max pre-render ahead limit value = 1 or more from nvidia control panel for the game profile ???? for me thts the main culprit :bang:

    this issue started for me with driver 304.48 still continues 310.54 beta and drivers prior to 304.48 works fine :)

    Yes, in fact, I did use it on 1. I'll try again in the following days and tweak that setting.

    Anyone have solution to this bug exist since (304.48 till 310.54 beta and continue ) (only happening to all r304,r306 & r310 branches ) only BF3 exclusive



    Maximum pre- render frame = 1,2,3,....8 cause this specific issue

    What graphic settings do you use in game? Also NVIDIA Control Panel (if you are using any overrides)?

    @gattsu, disable colour-blind support and try again.
