N660Ti PE 2GD5/OC video tearing

When watching videos I experience horrible video tearing with my new msi 660ti.
I filmed my monitor and then took a screen shot of the problem
Note: This is mpc-hc with video tearing test enabled (the red bars) makes screen tearing easier to see, but its noticeable with normal watching.
I've tried...
both DVI ports on two different monitors.
several different types of renderers
EVR
VMR7/9
Haali renderer
(overlay or a renderer with D3D enabled seem less prone to problems)
tried MPC-hc and MPC
Installed the latest drivers 306.02 that came out 2012.08.27
Most importantly though, I installed my old GTS 450 and the problems go away, even with the newer 306.02 driver that isn't for the 450 gts. I re-installed the latest 301.42 drivers for the 450 and its still fine.
I reinstalled the 660ti, went into safe mode and removed the driver and reinstalled 306.02..... tearing.

Test with MSI Afterburner (>How to use MSI Afterburner<) if there are problems in 3d also to figure out if it is a problem that requires rma.

  • N660Ti PE 2GD5/OC No Video signal at install

    I am having the Same Problem...
    I received my custom built Maingear Shift pc with no issue other that they sent it with a PNY GTX660ti installed instead of the Msi GTX660ti PE that I specifically ordered.  So they sent me the correct gpu under a RMA, the Msi N660Ti PE 2GD5/OC came to me 3 days ago.   I replaced the (working) PNY 660card with the Msi 660card and No Video Signal.   Every attempt to reseat or troubleshoot this has ended with still no signal and an apparent 'DOA' card.  I may have to RMA this one thru Maingear Support and have them send another...  just wanted you to know your not alone with this issue

    you should follow what i told you
    i didn't expected the card to be detected when you install it in the second slot.
    but you should be able to save/write his vbios,
    which we can use it to reflash it to legacy vbios and then it should works.
    Well, I expected the card to work outta the box.   I am not a 'techy' and have no idea what your talking about, and the warnings for vbios flash make me uncomfortable.  That may sound funny to you because in your experience it's probably a 'piece of cake'.  But, regardless,  I know my field of expertise and it has nothing to do with computers.  Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the help and if I didn't have a working pny660 card I would probably force myself to do what your asking,  but right now I feel more comfortable waiting on the RMA at the moment (unless you send me more specific step by step 'dummy' flash instructions then what I read on your nvflash download page).   Thanks 

  • MSI N660TI PE 2GD5/OC DirectX Error

    I've bought the MSI N660TI PE 2GD5/OC 3 weeks ago and use it together with below hardware. I've tried installing all drivers from MSI (including the latest one released begin July), but keep having the same problem. After I installed the driver I can play games just fine. But when I shutdown the PC and start it up the next day (haven't tried it the same day so far) and play Battlefield 3, I get an error message somewhere between the 15 and 60 minutes and the game hangs. Only thing I can do is CTRL+ALT+DEL and select Task Manager so it goes back to Windows and then shutdown the game by clicking right mouse button on the game and select Close.
    DirectX function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG: Device hung due to badly formed commands.. GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti", Driver 32018
    I can't figger out where the error comes from. I've read some posts which say that uninstalling MSI Command Center should solve the problem, but that didn't help for me.

    If you need anymore information, please let me know! Thank you in advance.

    I've tried the MSI drivers who came with the video card (the 306.97, which you can also download from the website). Also I've tried the following drivers from NVIDIA itself: 320.49, 320.18, 314.22 and the 310.90, for all drivers it was the WHQL version.
    I haven't tried another videocard except for the onboard Intel HD4600 and that worked fine (even though I had to downgrade the graphics a bit, but that's understandable).
    My old computer is to small for this videocard and haven't had time to test it at a friend of mine. But he has the exactly same card purchased at the same store. He has Z77-G45 motherboard, i5 3670K CPU and some older memory. I've installed my operating system from a USB device from him, so that's the same to. I also tried the same drivers as him (forgot which drivers this exactly was), but didn't work.
    I forgot to mention it before, but I'm running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.

  • Problem with new MSI GTX660Ti N660TI-PE-2GD5/OC

    Hi , I've just bought a new MSI GTX660Ti GPU from amazon , i was previously running the on board HD4000 graphics from the Intel I7 3770K CPU.
    When i plug the new GPU in and reboot - i get the 'GIGABYTE' splash screen on my monitor , and it just hangs there -I am unable to enter any of the options and pressing DEL , F8 , F12 etc gives no response.
    I've installed all the drivers , and i simply switch off the PC , installed the graphics card , take the DVI cable out of the mobo socket and plug it into the GPU socket then switch on.
    The bios beeps once , the display remains frozen on the splash screen for about 3 minutes , then another single beep from the bios and   the display remains frozen on the splash screen for another4 or 5 minutes , then eventually the screen goes black , with just a single flashing underscore. No keyboard inputs make any difference.
    re-booting just gives the same result.
    BIOS settings are all at default  Including >  Init Display First - Auto , Internal Graphics - Auto
    So , is there something that i'm doing wrong or is the new graphics card DOA ?
    Please help
    Many thanks

  • Prepurchase question for: N660Ti PE 2GD5/OC

    I am very interested in buying an MSI video card (N660Ti PE 2GD5/OC) but I want to be 100% sure it has a VBIOS that supports UEFI GOP for fast booting with my MSI Z77A-GD65.  I have been reading topics on here and it sounds like it might ship with a UEFI GOP compatible VBIOS or there might be a beta BIOS available.
    The BIOS download page: www msi com/product/vga/N660Ti-PE-2GD5-OC.html#?div=BIOS alludes to a this video card having a "hybrid" BIOS.  Does that means UEFI GOP + legacy support?
    Thanks for your help.

    Quote from: xmad on 08-December-12, 09:44:40
    It should ship with GOP drivers, if it doesn't we can get you the vbios to flash. No worries.
    Make sure to flash you mainboard bios to the most recent, if you ask when you are ready, I can prepare an archive so that it flashes the me extension as well.
    Sweet!  And thanks xmad.  My Z77A-GD65 is flashed with the latest already.  I'll put my order in soon and see how it goes.

  • Video tearing on iMac (Late 2006)

    Hi,
    My iMac has been suffering from what i think is video-tearing and horrible refreshrate for a week now. I'm thinking hardware problems.
    The video-tearing mainly comes up when the screensaver goes on but it's still annoying.
    The refreshrate is always bad.
    I have the iMac(late 2006) 2.16GHz with 2GB ram and the ATI Radeon X1600 with 128MB VRAM.
    What to do?

    Same Model, same problem here. Much worse i think, picture cuts in half, fonts break. Happened after some update back in March. I was away for some time not using it but now few updates later still no resolution, Display looks fine in XP (bootcamp)

  • Video tearing on my 24" iMac

    I have been having an issue with my 24" iMac for the past couple of months and I was wondering if you have heard of this issue before. I am getting what I guess would be described as video tearing. On occasion, and with no obvious pattern to it, I will get a weird horizontal line of noise that goes across just a certain open window, not the entire screen. I have been able to take screenshots of this, but I don't think I can post those in the discussions.
    Anyhow, it happens in Firefox, Word, Mail, etc. There does not seem to be any program that is immune to this issue, and it doesn't happen all the time. It appears to be quite random.
    I have checked the Apple Support site and the only thing I found were some old discussions about a tearing issue with previous generation iMacs. If I remember correctly, they were pretty old iMacs. Nothing about this issue in the recent past.
    The video tearing sometimes goes away if I scroll up/down the window, and sometimes it doesn't. Though, more often than not, it goes away by scrolling.
    My machine is coming up on a year old next month, so if I need to use my warranty, I need to do it soon.
    Have you heard about this issue at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    My system specs are as follows:
    24" Intel iMac purchased 9/06
    2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
    1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    I have not upgraded the hardware in anyway.
    Thanks again for your help!

    Hello lizardsrdizzy!
    Did this video tearing issue for sure just start happening, or did you just notice it for the first time? I ask only because this sounds like the known Apple/ATI issue that many of us with ATI video cards have had, but only eventually noticed.
    HOWEVER, since you do NOT have an ATI video card, I'd definitely recommend you need to pursue this flaw immediately within warranty/AppleCare.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86823
    I strongly recommend adding AppleCare to maintain the value of your iMac, either for your own use, or for eventual resale. Considering the original cost of your setup and the still rather high cost of replacing a 24-inch display, at full cost AppleCare will be a bargain and that cost will either be fully returned to you the first time you need to use it, or when you resell your iMac. Discounted it's available from Amazon and various Mac sellers.
    If you need to get a bigger bargain, occasionally they show up, but give yourself time to find one on eBay, and refer to my recent post here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4980575#4980575
    Best of luck, and please return to let us know the resolution of the matter.

  • [Solved] Minimalist setup with no video tearing

    Hello all,
    I maybe jumping the gun a bit here (as I still have other issues with flash and can't really test properly - see here), but here goes.
    After lots of reading and experimenting, I came to the conclusion that I really like the minimalistic approach of using Openbox and adding stuff as I need (Tint2 etc.).
    However, It also came clear pretty soon that should I want to make things look a bit nicer (that is, using some sort of composite manager), I will most likely end with screen tearing to some degree, using one of the non-opengl composite managers (xcompmgr, cairo commgr, compton).
    That is when I came across the option of using Compiz as a standalone WM, with no DE, which should solve the problem of tearing and still remain pretty minimalistic.
    Compiz, however, if I understand correctly, is going through some development "difficulties" this days (mainly used in-house by Ubuntu).
    Bottom line, my options, as I'm aware of, are:
    1. Openbox + no composite manager - should have no tearing, as minimalistic as it gets, a bit rough.
    2. Openbox + some composite manager (most likely compton) - will probably have tearing, still minimalistic, a bit nicer.
    3. Compiz 0.8.8 from repos - not sure, actually, except from the fact that I will probably not have video tearing and that it's a bit outdated as the 0.9.x line is considered stable by Canonicial.
    4. Compiz 0.9.7 (or 0.9.x should I feel adventurous) - I think I've read somewhere the 0.9.x line isn't really suited to be used as a standalone WM, something to do with the absence of Emerald (not too sure, though).
    Any input regarding those 4 options is highly appreciated, Adam.

    Doesn't matter what video card you have. OpenGL is OpenGL. Older cards support older versions of it, but it should still be enough for basic desktop effects.
    I was thinking of using a script that kills (or pauses) the composite manager if the media player window is fullscreen, since video tearing is more noticeable in fullscreen videos than windowed. Maybe adapt this script? Bah. I'm too lazy... Right now I can't be bothered with eye-candy. I used to have the tint2 clock set to right click and left click. One killed xcompmgr and refreshed the desktop and the other one started it, and restarted tint2 (for the true transparency to kick in). It's doable but I kinda gave up on it and went with vanilla Openbox + pseudo-transparency in tint2, guake and aterm because that's the only 3 programs that I wanted transparency in. And I can live without shadows. Easier on the resources too.

  • Horizontal video tearing in xfce and ion graphics (nvidia)

    Hello all,
    I have arch + xfce running no problems, but there is significant horizontal video tearing when I play videos (in vlc or firefox/flash). I have already enabled 'Sync to VBlank' within the nvidia-utils control panel. I think the problem arises from the xfce monitor settings window that only allows the frequency output to the monitor to be 50Hz. Can someone confirm this and/or offer advice?
    Thanks again,
    DF

    Since Devotedfollower is using a nvidia ion card he will get the best results without compositing at all.
    If you want to use a nvidia card along with compiz without tearing, I found these additional steps to be necessary:
    put
    Option "TripleBuffer" "True"
    under Section "Device" in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you don't have one, run "nvidia-xconfig" once as root)
    put "nvidia-settings -l" into your startup applications
    install and launch ccsm, open up the general options and look for a tick called "Sync to VBlank" and activate it
    within these general options there is a tick called "recognize refresh rate" (or something alike); deactivate it
    try playing around with the refresh rate slider (I got the best results when using the exact refresh rate for my display or something higher)
    Note that these steps are only necessary if you really want to use compiz on nvidia cards. They worked with several GTX cards for me. Don't know about your ION though.
    My netbook has an ION but it was one of the first ones. As far as I can remember it had no tearing on xfce without compositing but on compiz it had a bit tearing at the top of screen even with all the steps above.
    Nevertheless I wish you best luck!
    P.S. Tearing has always been a huge problem on Linux for me. After a lot research I found compiz being the only compositor able to almost eliminate tearing. So the only choice for nvidia users to get rid of video tearing is either to use no compositing at all (which results in teary desktop graphics) or to use compiz along with vdpau...

  • Video "tearing" on monitors

    I am using Premiere CS5.5.  I have a GTX 460 card with the MPE GPU acceleration turned on.  I am using the DVI output from the card to my GUI monitor and the HDMI output to a second computer monitor (Samsung - supposedly hi-def, though I know this is not the same as a true hi-def production video monitor).
    I am still working with a lot of SD footage.  It seems like anytime there is significant camera movement in an SD clip, there will be tearing somewhere across the middle of the image.  This is true in my source monitor, my program monitor and my second full-screen monitor.  The location of the tearing can vary with each playback.   If I look at the same clip with the VLC player, I don't see the tearing.  Is there something I can do in Premiere to stop this from happening?
    J. D.

    DVI/HDMI Monitoring is a smart solution and has a lot of benefits (e.G. GPU processed video can send directy out to the monitor) but also has drawbacks becaus sometimes you are at risk of occasionally stuttering (SDI framebuffer cards are more stable at this currently) and you have to set the screen refresh rate for yourself (50Hz, 59,976Hz, 60Hz, 48Hz...)
    --> Video tearing is a thing that should not occour on a modern computer with a GTX 460.
    Do you also have video tearing with VLC media player or Windows Media Player?
    --> You have to check you Video driver settings to get rid of the tearing I think...
    I don't have any video tearing with my Nvidia Cards exept one really old 8400GS in a server...

  • Video tearing

    Lately I've been noticing quite a bit of video tearing on my 3g iphone. It looks like the kind of video tearing one sees when connecting a computer to a tv. I don't know how else to explain it.

    Can you describe this a little better? I have a Mac Mini connected to a tv and video plays fine.

  • Fix for video tearing ATI Radeon HD 4200 using Catalyst Driver??

    Hey guys, as the title asks, is there a fix for pretty serious video tearing that I am experiencing on my ATI Radeon HD 4200 video card? I'm using the proprietary driver (catalyst, built from AUR) and would prefer to use that one or, if need be, radeonhd driver as I need HDMI sound output.
    Below is my xorg.conf.
    Many many thanks in advance to anyone who may have some ideas/experience with this.

  • Video tearing under Linux w/Air 2.6

    Flash 10.2 fixed the problem of video tearing of Flash applications under Linux with the move to use OpenGL for displaying.  Does Air 2.6 (or will a future version) support the same OpenGL layer and/or is there a config file like the Flash mms.cfg that must be edited to enable hardware acceleration?
    Video tearing is a massive issue with full screen applications under Linux and we need a solution now with Air since Flash >= 9 does not allow keyboard input when fullscreened.
    Thanks,

    Though AIR is no longer being actively supported on Linux, do you happen to have a bug number that we can look into from bugbase.adobe.com?  If not, would you mind adding a bug report?

  • Video tearing using catalyst 8.4 and a Radeon HD 3600

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing very annoying video tearing problems using my new device (especially during fast movements, travelings...). The problem doesn't seem to affect 3D games, but I don't play a lot.
    My googling helped me find out this had something to do with vsync, but I don't understand much all about this... I've tried several options for my xorg.conf , nothing seems to change my problem. XVideo is working according to xvinfo.
    I've noticed a strange thing using the catalyst control center. I have a LCD screen, its refresh rate is 60Hz ; this appears correctly in the "Display Manager" of amdcccle, but just below, there's a "Digital Screen" section where I can see 85 Hz. May this be related ?
    What are exactly the xorg.conf options that I should use ?
    Thanks for helping me !

    That might  be a driver problem, but it was supposed to be fixed in 8.4.
