Change the GPU power settings to what? Running 3x 480GTXs and having horrible issues. AA has been turned off.

That is a problem I don't have, so you have plus one problem on me.

CAUTION: DO NOT LOAD SWTOR UNLESS YOU HAVE AFTER-MARKET COOLING INSTALLED!!

Fixed settings, maximum performance - use this app ---> clicky

Also be aware SLI is horribly bugged in SWTOR - you're going to need to disable that :S

Yeah was going to try that when I get home from work today, but just realized in the patch notes for today that the flicker issue apparently is fixed. Check the patch notes.

Not going against you on the driver issue, cause I definitely believe you. Just putting this out there.

I play with GTX 560m and have noticed the screen flickering, gonna rollback to 275.33 now and check.

But my biggest problem is the temperature of my card. been running EVGA precision to see what goes on and its stable around 80-84c when in TOR, and allways at 100% GPU usage. This doesnt seem healthy and wondering what i should do if it persists?

I rolled back to 275.33 with my GTX 580 and I really don't notice any difference at all, I still get sluggish and choppy performance.

It's really starting to bother me and I haven't seen Bioware address this at all.

I'm also experiencing stuttering on GTX 570. Although I have no down-clocking issues because I have 120Hz monitor, which keeps my card in 3d clocks ALL the time. Game definitely needs better optimization.

It's also swell that nVidia drivers 275.33 doesnt recognize GTX 560m cards. Just so great!

What do you mean it doesn't recognize 560 GTX?. I have the same exact card except mine is super clocked. Mine recognized it without any problems.
