In the sky, the artifacts and it flashes and flickers. Serious obstacle to play.

My hardware:

Gigabyte LGA1155 GA-Z77-DS3H Z77
Intel Core i5-3350P 3.1 Ghz OEM
12 GB (2x4096 DDR3 1600Mhz Kingstone HyperX + 2x2048 DDR3 1600Mhz Kingstone HyperX)
Sapphire AMD Radeon РВ7850 2048 MB

W7 & game installed on SSD (120Gb OCZ Agility 3 SandForce SF-2281).

Drivers 120.10 & 120.11B8

in other games (Borderlands 2, LEGO LotR, FAR CRY3, NFS MW2, Torchlight 2, Minecraft) the problem does not notice.

do you think the video card's fault?

Use 12.8. I have the same problem. 12.10 and 12.11 causes flickering in the sky. I don't even have to watch the videos to know what you are talking about. I have a 7870 by the way.

Hey I also had the SAME EXACT problem with my 7870. Following Wanderer11's response will definitely fix it for you!

Drivers 12.8 are ideal. I had tried 12.6 first and I thought the problem was fixed but then it messed up all the shadowing in the interiors. 12.8 is the way to go.

12.8 problem is the same. what am I doing wrong? reinstall windows?

 

[wanderer11]

Did you use driver sweeper to uninstall 12.10 before you installed 12.8?

 

[bioann]

Just uninstall 12.11 & install 12.8.

Driver Sweeper it is special software?

 

[wanderer11]

You should use driver sweeper to make sure everything is uninstalled. Simply clicking uninstall doesn't get everything. So follow this procedure: Download 12.8, uninstall 12.11 via control panel, reboot in safe mode, run driver sweeper to remove all the AMD stuff, reboot in normal, install 12.8.

I uninstalled 12.11, cleaned windows program Driver Sweeper 3.2.0 & installed Catalyst 12.8

Now there is no flicker.

thnkU wanderer11! problem solved.
