I'm having a weird problem playing some games on fullscreen. It's not exactly low fps, not exactly screen tearing, and not exacting stuttering. Rather it's almost a combination of all 3. The screen "shakes" and "rubberbands" horribly, especially when I move or look around. Now here's the weird part: if I try to record it with game capture software like OBS, the footage will NOT have the weird shaking/rubberbanding and will appear perfectly smooth, so in other words it's not really recording what's happening on my screen for some reason.
I've narrowed it down a bit now:
- Seems to happen the most often in brightly lit places, especially fire
- Seems to happen more at the beginning of a level, once I hang around the same area for a while it happens less or stops happening. Something to do with loading?
- Turn on/off v-sync does not make any difference
- Does not happen with all games. For example this happens in Outlast and Resident Evil 5, but not in Alien Isolation
Anyone know what in the world might be causing this?
Here's a vid link. Sorry I had to record it with my phone since as mentioned, the video capture software won't capture what's actually happening on my screen. https://youtu.be/n9UIJDvJFQc
Computer info:
- Lenovo IdeaPad V510P
- Windows 8.1 64-bit
- Intel i7-4700
- Nvidia GT750M
- Latest GeForce Exp and drivers (358.50)
The games used to work perfectly fine full-screen. I didn't install anything (other than a few games and the occasional Windows update) between this time except updating the Nvidia drivers. I forgot what was the driver version before updating since I haven't updated a long time.
