I had some lag wassnt terrible went into bios and set pci/e frequency to 110 and seemed to help alot. Are you running the game @ 1680x 1050?

That is no surprise. I would guess the way to fix it would to be to make sure to use a driver cleaner so the old drivers are definitely gone.

i think not because of that..maybe ati didn't fix CF in this hotfix..it doesn't shown anything about CF in change log..
