 I can't say what would have happened throughout the beginning of the game as I'm past that point, but I went through on medium / high custom settings with my GTS 8800 640 from Nvidia when I first got the game, then I switched (at the Vartarell level) to a GTX 570 from Nvidia and set everything to max settings on DX11 which my system can handle with an i7 950 processor and lots of ram and the like. Unfortunately, when I was in the cave facing the first mash of spiders, the screen started tearing, more so when I started adjusting graphic settings while actually playing the game (in an attempt to fix them), and then black patches just began filling my monitor on the left and mid left areas of the screen.

I left that and decided to change things down trying to turn off v-sync and a few others things, but that didn't work, so I turned it to just "HIGH" and turned everything on that I could with that and went to the Black Emporium to change my settings because of the horrible imbalance I saw (in my opinion) of primal-spells not working all that well throughout the game, and so I got a potion and respeced and then accidently clicked the mirror. After I did that, I noticed and clicked "accept" to go back to the game and immediately my game froze and I had to alt-tab and at that point it said it had crashed.

Through my custom-medium high setting I was fine and had no crashes and no issues, but now with my new graphics card I get so many errors because of poor programming or game support with drivers?

I can't see how ANYONE could let that slip through quality-testing as max-graphics testing would DEFINITELY be used during quality-assurance testing.

In any case, I'm not going to keep playing until I see a confirmed fix, as it will embitter me to the game more than I already have been.

Hope this somehow helps.

Oh and I'm using the BETA drivers from Nvidia for this card.

Do you have the 267.59 beta drivers or an earlier version? Also make sure you do a clean install of the drivers when installing them. Turning v-sync on should get rid of screen tearing.

And, i have the same processor and card. You need to set AA to x2...not MAX. And install the Beta driver mentioned above.

First, I SHOULD be able to put AA to whatever I want.

Second, V-sync on or off did not fix screen tearing, and yes I have the newest beta drivers.

Are you sure your v-sync setting isn't being overridden in the driver, set to "off"?

Also, can you confirm your driver version is 267.59, which would have required a .inf hack to work. There is a 100% performance gain in DX11 between 267.59 and anything released before it.

I downloaded 267.24 as that's what I found on the site under beta drivers.

It installed with an exe.

I know of no .inf hacks.

It only shows up for (and officially supports) the 450 / 550 Ti, but with the .inf hack it will work with any modern GeForce card. Check out this thread: http://social.biowar...index/6571278/1

Interesting take.  Regardless of what you THINK you should be able to do, it doesn't necessarily mean you WILL be able to.  Until the next Nvidia driver release, AA performance is severly hindered beyond AA x2 in this game with DX11 enabled.  Sorry.

Is this stuff fixed without beta drivers and with having full max on yet?

Hey mate, I had problems with my 570, it was crashin but the sound would keep working and I would have to rest my comp.
The solution for me was that the 570 had a production overclock. Check what speed the card is running at, if its over 732Mhz that could be the problem. It seems to have worked for me and lots of others with 5xx cards.

Exactly, those overclocked 570's crash the game.

My 570 crashed as well till I used msi afterburner: http://event.msi.com...nerSetup210.zip

Downclocking to nvidia recommended values helps

here you can find stock values for your card:

Yep, down-clocking fixed it for me as well on my Gigabyte GTX570. Worth a shot for sure.

So I can't use the card the way it was meant to be used?

These cards were not "meant" to be overclocked in the first place, even by the manufacturers. If it runs at it's default speed settings, you are good. I would suspect the upcoming April driver release will have some 570 optimizations. It is a new card and only the original official driver has been released for it, so far. Expect optimizations and improvements with upcoming releases.

Unfortunately it is not always like that, I have a factory overclocked version from Gigabyte and it kept crashing till I downclocked to the stock values recommended by Nvidia. I did not do any overclocking by myslef.

Apparently some cards with very aggresive overclocking done by manufacturer are crashing under some circumstances.
