Sims look weird
See attachments. My computer has switchable graphics, it can switch between the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 for power saving and the AMD Radeon HD 6470M for high performance.

Haven't found a solution to it yet but maybe you can add to that thread and see what you guys have in common.
Both you and the user on the other link has a ATI card on a laptop, running with ATI's "Dynamic Switchable Graphics" software, so my guess is that that might be the problem, as that software is not as mature as the Optimus software that nvidia uses.
ATI are also known to produce buggy drivers, and it might be worth a try to downgrade to a earlier version of the current driver, say 12.2, or 12.1. It might give a slight loss of performance, but it might remove the face problem.
Another possible thing would be to check out if you simply disable the switch from one card to another, and see if the problem persists. If it does not, that means that the ATI drivers are to blame.
