Quick Dragon Age question (visual artifacts)

[Kalmah]

Does anybody else get alot of speckling white dots around the character heads?

I'm trying to figure out if that is just a quirk of the game or if my graphics card is dieing.

hmm.. yes it seems to only appear with AA turned on. I dont remember the game doing this when I first bought it.

Thanks for your replies guys.

BTW, it is extremely bad flickering white dots around the faces.

Nevermind my previous post. Now it's artifacting all over the ground as well even with AA turned off. Looks like I need to find a new video card soon.. and for that.. a better power supply.
