Indeed there are certain games out there which appear to benefit from alt tabbing.

Amongst those apparently Batman Arkham City and Saints Row 3.

I'm still not totally sure what the issue was, but I did a few things to try to fix what "alt tabbing" was fixing...

disabled and uninstalled precx
disabled and uninstalled all drivers
also pulled cards, for a diff reason...
re-install... win!

I do still get some skips on dual 670s @ this res, but i think my new loop and oc'ing will fix all of this easy...tell me what you all think? would i need a 2nd pump and rad and a dual split res to link in cpu

still undecided on if im going to order a new mobo also, thus maybe a diff size bridge... this will be my 1st major water project & this is only phase 1.. removing h100i will be later
