    Hello everyone. I bought a clevo XMG p503. And i really love the laptop. But because the GPU wasn't as good as i hoped i decided to upgrade the GPU. Now i am using the Mr.Fox gpu driver (for clevo). And game's work fine except 1 game. (GTA) The problem is that my character is having stripes on he's face ( http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/up...epen.PNG.891e33ab18ed61a3f5e4d5d58dcc491b.PNG)

    In order to fix this i need to go to a new driver. But the problem is. I can install any new version of nvidia. But it doesn't work after the driver is installed (It open's all my game's on my intel HD graphic's. even though i've set it to nvidia)


    Does anyone have the solution ?

    Specs again :
    Clevo (XMG) p503
    Intel 4800MQ
    16 gig ram
    Nvidia Geforce GTX 860m


    Thank you :D

    change you nvidia control panel settings to
    1.multi display/mixed gpu acceleration - Single display performance mode
    2.power management mode - prefer maximum performance
    3.texture filtering-anistropic sample option - on
    4. " " -negative LOD bias - Allow
    5. " " -quality - high performance
    6. " " -trilinear optimization - on
    7.threaded optimization - on
    8.triple buffering - on
    9. " " -anistropic filter optimization - off
    10.vertical sync - off
    11.maximum pre-rendered frames - 1

    I also had a similar problem with texture glitches and shuttering. Fixed it right away. I also got a fps increase of about 2-6. and fps drops were reduced to almost 0.
