    Hi guys.

    I went from a 6950 xfire, then to a single 6950, then i tried the Gigabyte Nvidia HD 670 Windforce 3X. but i sent it back as for 1 i just couldn't get all aa working in rfactor.(no problems with AMD cards) and it stuttered in games to much!

    Now i'm on a Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD 7970 Windforce 3X.
    I've been trying BF3. in game i have everything maxed out, 1920x1200, but no blur!
    In the CCC Control i have, as seen below!
    Does everything look ok there?

    It just don't feel butter smooth like i thought it would! if i turn 4xaa off in game, it helps abit.
    I uninstalled the drivers, then rebooted in safe mode, run Driver Sweeper, rebooted, installed the drivers, rebooted.
    I have tried 12.6/12.7 drivers. still the same. (not sure which would be better) do you think i'll have to reformat the drive and start over?
    Some advice would be much appreciated.

    Cheers :)

    Well saying "it's not smooth" doesn't really help much...is it stuttering/fps drops/lag you're describing or....?

    With 6GB ram it's possible the PF is being used which causes stutter...BF3 runs best with 8GB ram....is it only BF3 that's affected?

    I wouldn't reinstall the OS either, a good clean out with DS or whatever should be enough.

    The game play don't feel smooth! it's like a slow down of frame movement.
    I have 16GB of ram :)

    Not sure what the problem could be then, i really thought that card would be much better. happends in other games abit also.

    Cheers anyways :)

    The mouse is fine, just the movement of moving around isn't as smooth as it should be :)

    Only play multi player

    Update your specs then. It's kind of important.

    mate what u talking about lol
    i uninstalled the nvidia driver blimy im not that thick!!!!!!!!!
    what difference would it make installs GTX 670 over amd installed OS ?
    i have never had an issuie.. most say it be fine, u dont seem to think so
    so u think each time u change from amd to nvidia vise versa, u have to do new os install ?

    exactly. uninstalling the driver still leaves remnants behind. which causes conflicts..

    Ok I start over and see if it sorts it. I just tried C.A.R.S and thats so slow.
    Is it best to install service pack when updating my os 7 64bit.

    Cheers.
