So I recently built a new rig and have ran into a problem when I try to play games. When I load the games, I get screen flickering every 3-5 seconds or constantly if I move the camera to a certain spot. I have only tried two games, those being World of Warcraft and Battlefield: Bad Company 2. WoW tended to do it much more than BF:BC2, but both did it pretty consistently. I've tried a few things to diagnose the problems. I turned off SLI and used the top card in my setup and the games work fine, no flickering what-so-ever. I swapped out the SLI connector to see if it was possibly bad, but that was not the case. Just wondering if anyone had a clue. I am on the most recent drivers from nVidia being 260.99.
Here is my rig.
