Lubu,

I think I see what you're talking about but I don't really have a solution. There's nothing that comes to mind that you can do in the game that would affect it that I know of.

Are you able to swap out the video card in order to eliminate that as a possible cause?

Lubu,

The only sure way to eliminate the video card as a possible cause is to swap it out with something else and see if the problem goes away or not. Other games and stress tests are fine but are in no way a surefire way to test.

It doesn't need to be the same model card, just one that the game supports.

Lubu,

Troubleshooting-wise, the video card seems the most likely cause here. We can look elsewhere but it may eventually lead back to the card, requiring you to arrange for a replacement.

For now, can you post some information about your computer? You can find this information in the Direct X Diagnostic Tool:

Click on Start
Click on Run
Type in: dxdiag (In Vista, type dxdiag in the search field)
Hit Enter or OK

Click on the Save All Information button at the bottom, and create a dxdiag text file, and copy and paste it ALL here.

Could you also post your D3Prefs.txt file? It's located in the My Documents\Diablo III folder.

Lubu ,

Try disabling the in-game fps limiters for foreground and background, but leave vsync enabled. See if this makes a difference or not.

You might also try reverting to an older Nvidia video driver release.

http://www.nvidia.com/object/win8-win7-winvista-64bit-306.97-whql-driver.html

When installing them, use the Custom and Clean Install options, installing just the graphic drivers and none of the optional components.
