Alright at that resolution you are probably getting tearing, turn on vertical sync and it should go away, i had a similar issue on crysis with my 4850, things just get a bit out of sync and it looks funky.

Wow, 5850 on a 1440x900 monitor. Your next upgrade should be a new monitor. I went from a 1440x900 to a 1920x1080 (HD). Fan-freaking-tastic by comparison. Crysis & Crysis Warhead @ 1920x1080, with DX10 looks awesome. :)
