So I've had this card for a while now and I have been pleased with it so far. However, ever since I updated the driver to version 372.90 last week I’ve been having a weird issue when I play Street Fighter V, in which I get sometimes once in a while after a long session a weird green artifact in the screen that only lasts there for 3 seconds and goes away. Prior to update, this was not a problem even after long sessions, yet it did not happen on any other games such as Doom or Deux EX MD either (before nor after I updated the driver).

It even made me doubt of my OC tweaks, that I had to revert everything back to stock speeds and yet still happens. Quite honestly, I can't find anything on SFV forums of other players having the same issue nor find anything else. Anyone else having a similar problem with this driver? perhaps the new Windows Anniversary edition? Any input on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
