So, I bought myself a Sapphire Radeon HD 6870 in September 2012 for my PC cause console gaming was getting old to me. I bought the card form Newegg as well.
Games affected: Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Black ops 2 and many more.
So heres my problem. Ever since I bought this card and installed it, from the beginning I was having issues. I would always have screen tearing/splitting, getting black screens, etc. Then, one day it just started magically working after numerous reinstalls, driver sweeping, etc... and it worked for 4-5 months. But now, in March 2013, it has started all over again! It happened after I upgraded my drivers to Version 13.1. I tried everything I possibly could think of to fix the issues again, but with no luck. So, after hours of trial and failure after failure, I just said to hell with it and reset my PC to factory settings thinking that would be the fix. BUT NOOOOOO! Ive re installed all my programs and such, making my drivers #1 priority to install to make sure no other files could corrupt it. Then, once all my games were downloaded again, I did some testing. Once again, Battlefield 3 had screen tearing/splitting. Even with V-Sync and Triple buffering! And whats even worse is I have to restart my PC every time! And now Im stuck. Ive got nowhere to go, no direction. I really need help with this and I cant RMA it anymore either.
I really need a solution before I throw it out the window. ANY help is appreciated!!!!
Thankyou!
