I guess I'll leave vsync on then for my games. But can you guys explain why movement doesn't feel smooth when I'm gaming?

So I just built my first pc last week and had some problems with the 5870. Games run fine, but when anything is moving horizontally, it doesn't look smooth. It looks like it's jittering or something. Like there's some slight pauses. I tried lowering some setting's in the games but nothing helps. Is it also normal for every game to have screen tearing? It seems like playing in windowed mode minimizes it, but in fullscreen it's very noticeable. I know vsync helps but is it possible to not have screen tearing wothout vsync? Here are my specs if it helps

ASUS 5870

Intel i7 860

ASUS P755D EVO motherboard

Windows 7 premium 64-bit

Corsair Dominator 4gb DDR3

How would the 5870 do with the haf 922 case? Would you recommend any other case?

So I'm finally building a pc this week. It's my first time and I'm really excited. I was wondering if extra cooling is needed. I'll be running everyting at stock speeds, and will not be overclocking.

Awesome trailer. I didn't really like the demo, but I'm still buying this game at launch. A new Splinter Cell is better than nothing. I just hope we don't get another disappoinment that was Double Agent(360 version).

[QUOTE="Makari"]input lag != pixel response time - there's still room for there to be lag even if the panel itself has instant response time. :( best way to tell is probably crack out rock band 2 and try the calibration - it's good at letting you know where the TV sits when it comes to that

Yep. Pixel response time and input lag are two different things. What you have is a problem with input lag. What model is your LG? Also check out a site called www.avsforum.com.

Dude needs to stfu and start making good game's or stop completely. I don't usually say things like this, but Fable 3 is going to be a complete failure.

[QUOTE="SmokieX"]

This game is friggin amazing. I just got the electric whip thingy. What weapons are worth upgrading? I already maxed out the Blades of Exile and upgraded the Cestus to level two.

Sollet

Max the cestus out after that I'd say the Nemsis Whip, I really underestimated it on my first play through.

Okay, cool. I'll do that. The Aphrodite part got before that got me paranoid. Everyone was sleeping and I didn't want to wake them up with the constant moaning, so I had to lower down the volume. Anything with moaning coming from my room equates to me watching porn:(

Meh, i havent liked the series since Pandora tomorrow. It was kind of fun, but there was something not right. The production values or something seemed low. The cutscenes were pretty awful, and the last cutscene before the demo abruptly ends was just terribly executed imo. A rental maybe, if i feel like it.Anjunaddict
What!?!?!?! No love for Chaos Theory?:( Double Agent was horrible and I was also letdown by the Splinter Cell Conviction demo. No more hiding bodies, throwing cans and whistling makes me sad. The new mark and execution system is all right, but takes away from the stealth aspect of the game. Can't see myself using if too much anyways.
