Battle Field 4 Beta's graphics are spazzing out

So ever since I downloaded the Beta, which I have a 64 bit operating system on Windows 8 on a relatively brand new laptop and whenever I join the game the graphics are spazzing out even in the mini map before I deploy I have tried messing with the video options and everything and by spazzing out I literally mean spazzing out I can not see a thing but run around and shoot at random and maybe for a millisecond once every couple hours I can see my gun partially help please?😕mileysad:

    I have brand new laptop too, and im having the same problem. Look this video and see if it is the same problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1DVYnLXZAM. I really don't know what to do.

    AMD Radeon HD 7730M

    @Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3230M CPU @ 2.60GHz

     Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit

    (sorry for my english)


    Brand new does not equal good. The AMD radeon HD 7730M is about the same speed as the minimum AMD card, but in my opinion, the minimum requirements are set too high. Beta drivers might fix the artifacts, but performance will still be bad.

    In your case, the mobile chipset may be the issue, since they are technically not supported.

    Okay il give it a try, how do I find out which one to download?

    You need to know your hardware specs.

    On Windows, press the Windows logo on your keyboard + R. Then type dxdiag in the popup box and press enter. You'll get an overview of your hardware. Go to the display tab to view your video hardware.

  • So will I be able to run? according to yougamers my system meets the minimun requirements but not the recommendeds. And sorry to ask what does the chipset do and why my chipset is not technically suported. And will I be able to run at least in minimum?(sorry for my english)

    Sorry, I should have paid more attention.  The interloper is the one whose questions I have answered, rather than the actual owner of the thread.  Sorry about that, OP.

    Ever since the Radeon 6000 generation of AMD cards, the lowest ranked video has generally been integrated into the same package with the CPU cores, in a computing device that AMD  refers to as an "APU" instead of the more awkward CPU/GPU term.  Only one of their APUs has had the equivalent of the old HD 6570 "Low-Medium" card, with the majority of mobile APUs requiring a separate dedicated mobile GPU to reach past the Low End. 

    Prior to the concurrent development of AMD's earliest APUs and the Intel i3/i5 equivalents, integrated video was added into the supporting hardware of a motherboard in two large ASICs referred to as the MB "Chipset"; your APU is newer than that era.  There are multiple sources for reviews of the AMD integrated video solutions.  Google / Yahoo / whatever can assist you there.

    Just look at what it says under 'device'. That should give you an idea what drivers you need. It's probably best of you post what device you have so we can guide you towards the correct driver.

    If YouGamers says you meet the requirements, then I guess you're alright. The beta is a bit unstable, so it's possible you're experiencing issues that will not be in the complete game.

    By chipset I mean the graphics hardware. Laptop graphics are usually not supported in games because they are low powered versions of the desktop graphics cards. That doesn't mean laptop graphics are always bad, just that the game developers don't officially support them or test on them.

    Any computer that doesn't have better graphics than an HD 4000 needs a video upgrade, if a desktop, or replacement of the entire machine, if a laptop (laptops have no video upgrade option), else just forget about BF4.
