I get these lines going all over the place.

I think it is driver issue, but my card is ATI RADEON HD 4890, and I can't update the driver properly, beacuse it fails after the restart (maximum resolution allowed is 800x600, 16 bit). I've heard that ATI driver uninstall is flawed and it leaves leftovers which cause the whole thing. Fellow ATI user, please tell me how do you update your drivers?:confused:

Those looks like artifacts. Have you clocked your card. It might be a temperature problem

Get yourself a copy of GPUz and run it in the background to log your GPU usage and temperature while running the game (you need to tick the box telling it to continue logging in the background). I have a feeling that your problem is an overheating card and I believe that's a result of the GPU going crazy in game, something that only started happening to me in the last update before the beta went public. I need more people to check their cards to be sure though, as I can't go to TW with my own experience and nothing more.

No it was driver issue. But I managed to update it properly, I found a normal advice on updating it properly (The official ATI guide is ~50 steps long:rolleyes:). And now it's flawless. Thanks for the help though.:)
