At one point I thought it was ATI cards too as I run a 4870. After observing the posts on the two official TS3 forums it turned out that it wasn't as NV owners were affected too.

I don't think anyone really know. It certainly isn't limited to ATI. I certainly don't get much lag, but it is noticable...considering my specs I was very surprised to see it happening when I first loaded it up!

There's got to be SOME kind of driver issue, theres no other explanation haha

Yes, its the only thing I can think of too. Unfortunately for people with really bad lag, I don't think it is something EA will fix in a patch.

Yer, i emailed em about it, and they jst directed me to a couple of links about checking you have the right specs, and i know my system should be able to run it haha

I can't see it being patched either, especially since EA will be most likely focusing on shoving out expansion after expansion instead. I just can't be bothered playing it as much anymore because I have to save every 5mins.

It's so annoying.
Just realised it cant be nvidias.
My comp does the same, but even worse lag, and specs are shown in my sig.
