Penumbra screen tearing. - scarecrow007 - 03-21-2011
When I bought this game during the humble bundle 2 sale everything was running great. So today I thought that I should continue you the game, but now I'm experiencing screen tearing which makes the game unplayable for me. Any suggestion?

Make sure you have enabled vertical sync (vsync)

Yes, I have it enabled...maybe I should make video to show the problem.

Update graphics card drivers.

Ok well it's not a screen tearing issue... when ever I make a sudden movement the FPS drops, but if I stand still the FPS is 60... but if I start making sudden turns the FPS drops down to 20. Also when I ever I try to update my drivers my screen gets funky

Turn off motion blur in the game's graphics options.

Tried that too.

Do you have SLI? Or some other dual GPU thing. I had a lot of issues with artifacting and screen tearing when I played the game with both GPUs enabled.

BUMP. Updating my drivers fixed the problem.
