Either the game stutters when you move arround in large arreas or textures just pop up! Like when you move near an object and as you get closer it changes suddenly. But suddenly and im not even very far like on Far Cry 2 when you move near things they change to more detailed. I have this on all games Hitman 4, Crysis , Oblivion, Last Remnant, Wanted, ect... I have Q6600, GTX 260, 4 gigs of ram, IP-35 pro and vista 64. It's not the graphic card, i used to have 9600gt and it was the same. It's not the video drivers i tried old, new , beta... What can be causing this?

When i first bought my computer games used to look great and ran smooth. Now they just look like crap.


Here a link to gameplay video.

I think that is just the tendency of the games themselves.

See what the fish or whatever do...It's like this everywhere, you can't really drive a venicle without these flashes distrating you. It's like this on all games. And i don't think it's the GPU because i haad 9600 gt and it was the same.

It's normal and happens in all games ,because the gpu can't handle all the high polygon model at the sametime ,so it just shows a low poly one when u're far from it ,and replaces it with the high poly one as u get close to it . Some games has a gfx setting for it ,but i don't think that it should be that noticable.

Btw ,i notice this only with crysis and farcry2. I think that there's a console command to override this ,ie : increase the detail distance ,but it'll impact the performance heavily. U can google it . But other than that ,i don't think u can do anything about it :(

No, but i cant find it...Can you tell me where to download it?

tone down the res and details
Tried it, it's still the same.
maybe update the drivers

I am using the newest i downloaded from Nvidia Site.

Btw ,i notice this only with crysis and farcry2.
I think that there's a console command to override this ,ie : increase the detail distance ,but it'll impact the performance heavily.
U can google it . But other than that ,i don't think u can do anything about it


And I've tried tampering with the console, i changed view distance and other similar commands to 100, 150, 1000, 10, nothing changed.No it's not just Far Cry 2 and Crysis. It's Hitman, too GTA IV, 5 of 6 games i have installed now. Here i made another video of Hitman 4. It's not very notecable on youtube quallity but you can spot it

Hey thanks, but i chouldn't find those drivers on that page. I am i school now but when i get home i will install older drivers.

Look if this was the way it supposed to be i would just quit bothering everyone. But when i got my PC, Crysis and Far Cry 2 and all games ran without a glitch. It was as smooth as it can get. Obviosly something went wrong with my computer. I just want to play again smoothly again. Pls if someone has an idea tell me. Can it be that something is dragging down my GPU or something..or something...i don't really know computers really well. Pls someone help me.
