   Recently I am seeing light streaks in game. Searching for answers i find this guy who has the same issue shown in link below
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=j6DD816c7Mk&rdm=18auwm6ro&client=mv-google
  I have the same problem as seen in the link above. Also the video is a few years old so I know he was using much older drivers.
For me he the streaks pop up and hang for a while then go away. looks like bullet tracers suspended in the sky .

Used older drivers but had same issue . Restarting the map makes them go away but after 10 -15 min it comes back .
Temps are all good and nothing is overheating. I have tried lower graphic options . My bf3 is an origin dl and I have tried the repair game option .
 I run bf4 on high and no problems. Running bf3 and bf4 with 100+fps and the card temp stays at 62 to 67 c
 The cpu runs between 41 to 47


My pc build
Evga x58 sli
InteI i7920@2.6 ghz ( running on default mobo settings , no oc . turbo is enabled )
Evga nvidia geForce 770 gtx 2gb super overclocked atx gpu (default settings)
12gb corsair xms3 1333 mhz
thermaltake 700 w psu 
3TB seagate barracuda 7200 rpm
windows 7 
 
Could this be a result of having to much virtual memory allocated to the hard drive ?
 performance monitor while running game the cpu averages 80% to 88% usage and the physical memory a little over 3gb
 
 I ran bf3 fine for a few months and had not seen this problem till recently . My next option would be to reinstall the game


Please help . Thanks in advance

    Try running driver 337.50 and downclocking the card on both the core and memory -105 from default clocks to see if it helps the problem.
