    I went through 3 GTX460 1gb and now gtx465@470. Swapped out to new motherboard, memory, harddrive, powersupply. Its the driver. New driver fixed my flickering but card still downclocks to 405.

    yes i did. Its the driver. Alot of people getting similar problems in SC2, mafia II, and bfbc2. sc2 works fine at first. I get only 50% gpu usage and driver downclocks to get it up to 100%.

    nVidia Forceware 260.63 download all OSes.

    People are still having problem with stuttering/flickering in the game. My sc2 was flickering and down clocks to 405 in game. New driver fixed flickering but still downclocks to 405Mhz in game. 90 fps to 40 fps drop ..... I regret selling my 5850.

    Custom Cooler for GTX 470?

    I couldnt find one myself so I did fan mod. Take off casing and attach 80mm fan to heatsink using ziptie. dropped my temp to 50idle 65 load. Was at 70idle/94load. No more loud noise. Cheap $3 mod that works. But you'll need 3 slots.
