Just installed my R9 270X 4gb on my



Asrock fm288x extreme 4 Motherboard

2x4gb 1600mhz Team Elite Memory

A-10 AMD fm2+ 3.9ghz Cpu

500w Corsair psu

60 Sharp LED Tv

Hooked up VIA HDMI

Previously had older catalyst drivers on a different setup with a old HD6670 That was not good enough for games. worked great on same monitor for 1080p movies.





I am getting screen tearing watching anything on my tv. Haven't even got to play games yet. I think it may be the 15.7 driver. Anyone know? I heard its the drivers or the card is putting out to much frame rate...Any help would be appreciated. Last but not least what is a better card at same price point if I cant get this solved within 30 days.

Hi

I would suggest you check the speed of your TV monitor first and see how fast it is. Check if you cant enable V-Sync in the GPU software, this should help the screen tearing.

Hope this helps :)

Looks like the Motherboard driver may have been fighting with the r9 it had an exclamation and said it needed more resources so I disabled the mobo driver looks ok now havent tested thoroughly yet. if not than I will enable v sync which is I believe call vertical refresh in catalyst to on. Thanks!

almost fixed by turning on vsync! tried changing hdmi cables refresh rates look good. I do think disabling the mobo driver and vsync worked for movies but I get tearing when scrolling on firefox... played with setting refresh rates etc but firefox scrolling seems to be the issue now. Not a huge deal but kinda bugs me. also cant get that dang toolbar transparent again! still more movie testing to do seems games are doing just fine without any tearing.

Wow ok figured it out. So needed to enable Vsync thank you for the suggestion. Disabled mobo graphics driver so the r9 would work without interference. Last but not least after my clean install of windows 7 64 I had to go in and change Desktop management through running "services" and set it to Automatic also set themes to automatic. For some reason those were not on..... wow. Thanks for the help Zyb3r ! Have a good one and hopefully this took care of it all!
