I use the term tearing really really lightly, i really don't know how to describe it, it's like repeated patterns of lines being presented on the monitor, like so: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zRS1_O8gCU[/media] I have tried switching both my graphics card with my old one, and switching my monitor with a different one, doing either of these had no effect on the problem, so i come to facepunch to plea for your help.. Thanks.
Does it happen in every game?
It happens in every game, however Assassins Creed and Batman seem worse affected than CS:GO. I have tried different settings on the Vertical Sync using the nVidia control panel, turning Vertical Sync to On seems to almost solve the problem in CS:GO however you can still notice it in dark spots and becomes worse when the graphics card is put under stress (bomb exploding, ragdolls). I tried 2 monitors, one was a 19" with a resolution of 1440x900 and I have just tried another monitor that is a 17" with a resolution of 1280x1024 and the screen tearing stopped!! My system specs are: Intel i5 8GB Ram nVidia 660 GTX Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
