There's obvious texture pop-up in nearly every game I play. It's ridiculous in games like BC2 and Crysis when framerates are completely fine and I can't even see some patches of grass until I'm within a few feet.

I've updated my graphics and motherboard drivers, messed with CCC settings, etc. I know it's not the games themselves, it's still a problem even with in-game settings set to minimum.

This is really annoying. I'm not sure that this is a problem with my graphics card, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

What kind of hard drive do you have? Turn up draw distance in the settings. Sometimes it's the games themselves. Try running the game on absolute minimum using the IGP of the i5. Is it the same problem?

WD Caviar Black 2TB 32MB hard drive. Changing draw-distance on games that have the setting doesn't seem to change much, and neither does messing with processor affinity.

I'm not sure if i'm right on this, but it sounds like mip mapping is wrong, is it textures on the ground too? if you look carefully, you can see several lines running along your screen in a game with a completely flat surface for terrain. If you find an area where the mip mapping is removing textures try to see if one of the mip mapping lines is the point at which the problem occurs. Its a long shot but its the only thing i can think of.

also its a radeon card, so 11 out of 10 times its a driver issue.
