Well besides the bit of lag when playing now, and the tearing I never noticed before, I just don't see how the 7950 cards would introduce tearing that the 7900 cards didn't.

But FEAR says that 1680 X 1050 isn't a supported resolution. Ok it's not supported, but as I said I didn't see any problems with the 7900s but now I do, so I guess this unsupported resolution is just rearing it's ugly head now with the 7950s but if it's not supported then I don't get why you can now pick it in the latest patch, hmm.


I thought the latest patch was supported, LOL

Anyhow I use to run SLI in FEAR with 7900 GT KO Superclocks and I didn't notice any tearing, since then I've upgraded to 7950 GT KO 512MB cards and when I play in SLI with those at this resolution I get tearing, especially in areas of the maps with lights, and the flickering lights that all through out the map.

Is it common to see tearing in FEAR at this resoultion 1680 X 1050? Or it shouldn't really and is there away around it, and I don't mean by lowering the resolution, is there a way to get it to work at 1680 X 1050 and not tear?

Anyone else playing it with this resolution?
