Thank for the reply

but i'm not facing FPS issues, its just the connection but only when I enable multisampling. Ambient occlusion drops the FPS but it does not d/c from the game. It's just odd how going up to 4x MSAA and beyong I get connection issues and this was never an issue. I just updated nearly all my drivers (besides apple stuff that just wont update).

Thanks for the reply though, at least other people are not facing this.
