i5 2500 proccessor
8gb Ram
GeForce GT530

i can run any other game BFBC2 , CoD , L4D etc and there is no problems

run furmark on Max torture settings and see if anything pops up.

Check your GPU temperatures when you run the game. It could be running too hot and causing artifacts ingame

what would be considered bad ?

cherryghost

Anything over 80 and I'd be worried, especially for a low power consumption graphics card like yours

Furmark is a gpu torture test program. Google it and download. Note the temps too.

Ah. this happened with me on my laptop. It happened to me because I had AA and anisotropic filtering turned on for minecraft in the nvidia control panel.

Yep, looks more like you're forcing some fancy hardware settings in the drivers that Minecraft is having a severe disagreement with

Without being on my laptop I cant give an in-depth description.
I remember accessing it by right click on the game icon, going to graphics processor and clicking on "change default *something*"

Scody94

This is what i get when i right click and select nvidia

Xenon560

i think it might be "manage 3d settings"

Scody94

right turned off anisotropic filtering but whats AA

Xenon560

Anti-aliasing

Scody94

Change the Anti-Aliasing mode to something like "controlled in application"
(cant remember the setting name)
