Artefacts only in SWTOR

[ChrisD.]

Is this a known issue with AMD cards? I'm getting weird artefacts, like lines coming off people's hands etc. If I alt tab out and go back in again, they go for around 20 minutes then come back again.

BF3 and Diablo 3 are fine, I've not tried any other games yet. Temps are no higher than 60 degrees and settings are stock (Sapphire 7950 OC).

Sounds like the OC is a little high to me. Maybe try lowering a little and see how that works.

He said settings are stock.. I have no problems with my nvidia cards in swtor but if I run my alienware which has amd gfx its really buggy

No probs here. Try going back to reference clocks and try that (presume you meant stock oc)

Ok, I just see the Sapphire 7950 OC at the end and knew he had a card that OC's real well.

Maybe try different drivers?

The OC is whatever it is out of the box, and like I said, BF3 (more demanding) and D3 are both perfectly fine.

Drivers are 12.4 on a brand new build (well, was built on Saturday due to a new SSD).

Awesome thanks, how can I enable AA without CCC (I don't have CCC installed).

I think you will need to install CCC to force AA on in this game as it does not have it as an option (Stupid for a 2012 game). Not sure what you use TBH and an AMD owner maybe able to help more.

I just have the drivers installed and use MSI Afterburner to control clocks/fan profile.

Thanks for that insightful post...

You should be able to force AA via radeonpro if you don't have ccc installed.

Thanks, will give this a go.

Started doing it in BF3 now.

Temps never above 60 in game, stock settings for the card.

Tried 12.4, cleaned out then tried 12.5, cleaned out, 12.4 again and now back on 12.5, still the same.
