New Lag Making Game Unplayable

    I've played PS2 for a a year or so now, and haven't typically had many problems with lag (I'll link my setup below). Recently (within last few weeks to a month, maybe?) I have been experiencing not an FPS drop, but a nausea-inducing, screen-tearing, seizureful kind of lag that, at first only happened when I looked a large group of players in one small area (like 30 or 40+ around a spawn building or something) but is now happening almost everywhere I go.

    As I said, it's not even really FPS-reduction, just this flickering of the screen and screen "tearing". I play a few other games and the problem has never and is not occurring in them. My video card is not overheating, nor are any other components as far as my temperature reader program tells me. My computer is approximately 3.5 years old, but as I said, this is not a problem in any other games, and I haven't noticed any other decline in performance or w/e in the laptop.

    ProcessorIntel(R) Core(TM) i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.30GHz, 2301 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
    OS NameMicrosoft Windows 7 Home Premium
    Installed Physical Memory (RAM)6.00 GB
    NameNVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M (driver version: Driver Version10.18.13.5850)

    If there is any advice anyone can provide, thank you in advance!

    P.S. I've uninstalled and reinstalled game as well.

    Thanks Rastarius for the link.

    I noticed there were new drivers for Nvidia that are a day or two old; I downloaded/installed them, tried playing PS2, no problems at all. Whoopdedooo
