|  Graphics issue
Hey.
When gaming i get a wird issue with what seems like only thin objects, there will be like a long line around thin objects that seems to outline them.
It's really hard to explain, and for the life of me i can't find out what's wrong, so i'm hoping someone can identify what's going on.
I've uploaded a video to youtube (below)to demonstrate what i mean.
Pay close attention the the edge of the object infront of the car, and the fences, notice when i get closer to them, the line-like thingys dissapear, and reappear as i get into the distance. I recorded this with 4xAA so i'm pretty sure it's not that.. and this happens in all games. Especially with textures in the distance like world of warcraft, it makes them look like they're flickering and fuzzy until i get close.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Youtube and specs below.

It's hard to take a snap shot, because it only happens when i'm moving. if you goto the youtube page and cick "high quality" and put it into fullscreen, you will see.
I've uploaded the AVI, for anyone who can't notice in the youtube vid.

Yes i'm using Cat 8.7 release 21st, flash.
The thing is.. this was happening with my old x1950 Pro aswell.. so i'm not sure it's the graphics card.. |

i assume you uninstalled the old cat drivers after upgrading right? or is this a new build? |

Spot on Juona, those little jaggys move like a conveyor belt around small thin objects, it's extremely annoying and stands out a lot more when your actually looking at the screen.
Also the brown-like object at the left of the fence, look at the top edges real close as my car comes towards it, you will notice some weird jaggys.. this is with 4xMSAA ingame and "Application Controlled" in ATI Control panel. |

Ok, it's definately an AA problem, i just disabled AA completely and the telephone wires, fences, lamposts etc were almost flickering completely.
If i enable aa 4x, it calms it alot, but it's still more than noticable.
Is it possible there is too much strain on my graphics card because my other specs don't quite match it?
