Hi all,

I've recently rigged a display for my media centre. I have a pc with two monitors in the corner of the room and my TV hooked up in the centre with a hdmi cable running from that to my computer.

I have it set so that my second monitor displays the same image as my TV.

I'm using a DVI, Display-Port and HDMI input on my graphics card.

The problem is that my current setup has a lot of screen tearing. It makes some games unplayable.

Is there a way to prevent this? I don't mind buying some kind of device to essentially switch the signals (Say, when I want to switch over to playing games on the TV, make it so it disables the monitor and plays on the TV). I've been scratching my head over this for months.

Graphics card is an AMD 7800

I have had the same problem I tried turning on vertical sync and it helped in BF3.
