[Help] Sapphire HD 7970 OC Edition

[zmiac-97]

Hello guys,

I am a major fan of FPS games like CoD and BF on the PC. I bought my new nice PC 2 weeks ago and i am facing some problems now..

It seems like the 125fps max'd in Black Ops 2 drops to a significant 90fps for me. I am using the 12.11 beta driver for the card.

Some might say that if i use a 60hz monitor, it doesnt show any difference but if you try it yourself, there is. Sprinting is a lot more faster on 125fps than 60.

CPU Temp: 55 ~ 65c
GPU Temp: 45 ~ 55c max

Both when gaming on load.

Please help me guys, i might rma the card as i am still under warranty.

Turn on vertical sync, that should make it smooth again.

And those temps are plenty low for gaming.

Hi, please don't make the same thread on basically the same topic.. it makes it confusing for some people browsing the forum.
