Help With Graphics Issue

@GoddessLydiaMoon

Just to tie forum posts together I gather this is your post at this link

How are the temps for CPU and GPU ?

they are normal, if they were over heating i would know, i have my pc set to shutdown automatically if it gets to hot, and most of the time i usually have GPU tweak running

and yes that is my post

@GoddessLydiaMoon

The directx redist had no affect I gather

Its been a while since I have seen that, had a quick look at my saves but doesn't appear to be listed.

20 minutes playing and then start to get artifacting can be heat based though

it has been doing this since 5.0, it NEVER did it before that, and i was using a Radeon HD 6450 1Gb ddr3 card, only when 5.0 hit that is when it started doing that, i doubt its a heating problem as i have my case side open and a fan blowing on it 24/7 as well as a well ventilated case.  I have been reading in some places, dunno if its true, but that most games prefer a Nvidea card rather then an AMD, like my star trek online just recently corrected these issues with amd cards.... all i am saying is that it is most likely not a heating problem.  a buddy of mine told me it may be Windows 10 doing it to me, but i know for a fact it is not, because when i had windows 7 it was still doing it, even on the lowest graphics setting. i would just like this issue fixed somehow, i spent 1000 dollars building this pc, and would hate for it to be for nothing

I can dig for older posts but wont be tonight, the screen you have I have definitely seen the exact thing before and all I can recall is someone saying oh it was "this" 

unfortunately that was years ago and my memory isn't that good i'm afraid.

thats fine, i am patient, i have been playing the game like that for months now, another day or so is ok, as long as we can resolve the issue lol

@GoddessLydiaMoon

What I can say is I will try and help

Edit - found this one related thread post - not the one I was looking for though yet. it is exactly the issue though.

Woody though it could be an overlay issue - the following is an nvidia link but it shows how to turn some game stuff off in win 10

like i said before, its not windows 10, it was doing this even before i upgraded

i also did everything woody said to do for the settings in windows 10, still does it, meaning its not a windows 10 issue

@GoddessLydiaMoon

Can you provide a dxdiag per this link

I have found a few other threads but nothing concrete just people pointing to the driver  

here is my Dxdiag
