Weird graphics problem

[Rustfx]

Hi,

I've been trying to search a solution to this problem, but haven't found one yet so I decided to try if I can find an answer here.

So... lately I've been getting this weird graphics bug in all the games I've tried. The edges of textures appear with sharp and sawblade like edges. The problem doesn't stop there... The shadows are also behaving oddly and form from either small or big squares (depending on AA). I've already checked that it probably isn't a GPU related problem by swapping between my new and old card (and the problem was still there). The drivers are up to date and the settings are default.

Here's a couple of screenshots to show how it's like in SWtOR with 16x AA:

Thanks in advance.

Edit: added computer specs if that helps

CPU: Intel i7 2600k 4.8 ghz

GPU: MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr

PSU: Corsair 950w

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z68-V-PRO

RAM: 8gb

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

As you've tried changing the gpu and its still the same, i would back up save files and reinstall the game, Can't see anything els it could be apart from a game patch.

I hope this helps. let us know, weird problem.

Hi, thanks for the reply, but the problem is in every game - not just one. So I doubt uninstalling would help. Do you think a faulty PCI-E port could cause this?

Download and run 3dmark 06 with everything on stock, do a screen print with results also showing gpz all windows open and report back.

Here's a link to the 3d mark results: http://3dmark.com/3dm06/16318867

And here's the screenshots of gpu-z:

Disable cuda, phys x and direct compute and try you game again, just a hunch.

Alright, will try that as soon as I get back from work. Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate the help.

Reinstall drivers? I had a similar problem to you, all my colours were brownish, updated to the latest beta drivers and it fixed it.

Haven't tried the beta drivers yet - guess I'll do that first, thanks.
