Radeon HD 5830 framerate choppiness

[xxMarkIt8Dudexx]

I am currently having an issue reach 60 fraps on games like BFBC2 and COD:Black ops. I am using an asus monitor and fraps says I am getting a solid 60 FPS on both games, yet it appears very choppy. Looks more like 45-50 fps. I have tried everything from changing settings in CCC, to overclocking but nothings seems to make a significant difference. It isn't as if the card is struggling, it stays nice and cool when running these games. I have tried running it through HDMI and DVI with the same result. I was wondering if there is a known issue with the HD 5830 in outputting 60 fps, or if I have a legitimate hardware issue. Puzzles as to why fraps says I have a fixed sixty yet it seems like 45. Running windows 7 64 bit.

thanks for your help

Try another tool like MSI after burner and check your FPS.If it was 60,then Fraps was showing it right.

I have it OC'd and stable but it makes no difference if I OC it or not. It says 60 fps, but does not look like it. Could it be my monitor?

No i don't think its because of your monitor.
Is V-sync enabled ?
