HELP XFX HD 7950 in Crossfire getting strange flickering

Shadyreaper · Aug 27, 2015

hi everyone I play world of warcraft and when I log in and sometimes in game I get weird flickering with of colors in my screen
my rig
CPU: AMD FX-8350 stock speed with no power saver mode on so it stays @4ghz
Motherboard: Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0
Video cards : XFX AMD Radeon HD 7950 Double D x2 no OC stock 900/1250 speeds
Thermaltake Smart M750W 750w PSU with 62a 12v rail

could this be a power issue this doesn't happen with one card
if you look on the left side you will see white wall pieces that arent there normally

I also get flickering in game and not just with world of warcraft it happens with Dying Light and BF4

I forgot to mention ULPS is disabled and I have the newest catalyst control center and driver with windows 10

this is what it looks like with 1 card what it should look like

Hello,

We're sorry you are having issues. It could be the video cards drawing too much power and the PSU unable to sustain it. Its very rare, but it is a listed cause of artifacting.

have you tried both video cards by themselves? its more likely one of the video cards is just faulty. does it do it in any other game or benchmarks?

I bought 1 brand new and I think it is the one I am having an issue with cause I also get random screens where everything disappears all but colored lines and I have to restart by the button cause you cant see the desktop and it also has way too much coil whine I am gonna RMA it and see where it goes from there I think that might be the issue

okay, did you make a ticket yet at xfxsupport.com?

have you tried running with half of your ram out of the computer, then swapping the set in to see if possibly a stick of ram is faulty?

Shadyreaper · Aug 28, 2015

yes I have made a ticket and I have an RMA # I just have to send it in how long does it usually take to have it returned to me once they receive and make a decision on whether or not to send a new one or fix this one every thing i have read says around 2 weeks

and no I havent tired taking any of the ram out yet

I have been running the card I just got with no issues so far the screen has only cut out 1 time since the card swap I think it is the one that I am having RMA I didnt think that all that coil whine was really causing so much issues but there must be something wrong with it for it to be so loud and make the screen freak out the way it does
