    I own a hp dv6-6153cl for about 2 years now, there hasn't really been problems until recently. In the last few days i've been experiencing horizontal lines or tearing on videos and in games. I tried driver sweeper and tried to install either of the only 2 drivers that exist for the card and both have the same issue. I get 100+ FPS in game, but I can still see that it seems like the graphics card is unstable and has vertical tearing with or without v-sync. Anyone have an idea what might be wrong with it?
    :confused:

    i7-2630QM 2.0 Ghz
    AMD RADEON 6770M
    8Gb RAM

    update: seems like when i start up a game (leagueoflegends) the horizontal tearing starts. A few days ago when i enabled V-sync on the game client it didn't do anything.. now with V-sync on, it makes moving around slower as well as having more severe tearing

    GPU is dying or the AMD CCC parameters are not okey (try to see V sync forced or s.th like that)
