R9 270x flickering question.
Does the famous "flickering" bug among the R9 series still exist or has it been fixed in previous updates?

Cheers.

I haven't heard of any flickering either. I've had my Sapphire R9 270x for around a month now, and it's been fine. What drivers are you using? I personally can't use any of the 14.x drivers so I went back to 13.12. Maybe you could try that.


I haven't bought my Sapphire r9 270x yet but I read in forums about the problem and last complains were almost an year ago.
I just wanted to make sure if the problems are fixed and it seems so since you guys don't have flickering problems.

My Gigabyte R9 270x is a week or so old now and I haven't had any form of screen flickering at all. In fact, this is the first time I've even heard of screen flicker issues on this card (My previous one had a terrible flicker).
