Not just in your games but in all applications as well. Have you installed the latest driver for your GTX 650? If not, what is your Operating System? Are you using 32-Bit or 64-Bit?

Okay, so what was your previous graphic card? I checked your Graphic Card and it says that it is a 3.0 card. Does your board support 3.0?

Another thing.. What OS are you using right now?

 

[UmeshNanI]

windows 7 32 bit os

 

[alz_solstice]

Okay, forget the photo thingy T_T Just need the Operating System you are using.

 

[alz_solstice]

Okay, uninstall your graphics driver first in the Programs and Features window, then reboot PC and ALL NVIDIA programs on it.
- Click Start button, type Programs and Features
- Press Enter
- Uninstall all NVIDIA programs
- Reboot PC

Okay, forget the photo thingy T_T Just need the Operating System you are using.

windows 7 ultimate 32bit os

bro i tried it 2 times like u said uninstalling and installing i m getting same problem.......

 

[UmeshNanI]

but i had a doubt that u r saying there is performance loss due to monitor pci 2.0 slot.mainly screen tearing causes due to monitor refresh rate na so i think it doesnt matter which motherboard it is???

 

[alz_solstice]

Gonna trash that comment, it was kind of wrong. Sorry bout that men, people do faults sometimes 😀

Anyway, to check the refresh rate. Right click in the Desktop, then click Screen Resolution. On pop-up window, click Advanced Settings. On pop-up window, click Monitor tab. Check the Refresh Rate. Mine is 60 hertz.

 

[UmeshNanI]

mine refresh rate is 60hz and my resolution is 1920*1080 i m using hdmi cable...and while using windows photo viewer m not getting tearing only in picasa i m getting tearing

 

[alz_solstice]

On your previous card, the Zotac GT 630, were you using HDMI too? Can you try using VGA or DVI cable if the same problem occurs.

 

[UmeshNanI]

in zotac gt 360 there is no hdmi for that graphics card so i used vga cable and there is no problem wit that

 

[alz_solstice]

Can you try using VGA cable on your GT 650 for the meantime? Then check if there are any difference while using VGA and HDMI.

 

[UmeshNanI]

not gt 650 bro gtx 650 ti 2gb graphics card....... and i tried it bro same problem presists

 

[alz_solstice]

Oops.. Got it. OK, do you have a friend with a PC where you can test your GTX 650? If the same problem, then you might have a bad graphic card. Still got the warranty? Try to replace it with a new one.
