Hi all,

Anyone come across this issue before?

https://clips.twitch.tv/GrotesqueCourageousEggplantKevinTurtle

Happens in both PUBG/Apex, which are my main games.

Goes away if I change 'render scale' temporarily - when I start a new game, it can come back, others it stays fixed for a little while.

Since it happens between the two games i play mainly, I'm not sure what the issue is... Drivers perhaps, faulty card perhaps?

Anyone else had this issue?
 
RMA time I believe, sadly. Others more knowledgeable will hopefully chip in but that looks like a dying card. This is a a lot more common with these cards than it should be
 
Thanks.
I've contacted OcUK support, who have put me through the standard drivers reinstall, using DDU.
I've also used a separate SSD, to install a fresh Windows 10 installation, same issue.
Waiting for a further response from ocuk webnotes, since i'm in the office all day.

It is a bit saddening that these cards at £1250 are failing so regularly.
 
Is it overclocked?

Set all the settings to stock. Still happening? drop 500mhz under stock from the memory clock - still happening?
 
I'm seeing this on a 1060 since updating to windows 1903 last night in Forza so I don't think it's your card.


Supposedly disabling the geforce overlay fixes the issue for some.

Already tried this, lowered both down huge amounts, don't remember the exact amounts now - but used GPU Tweak and lowered them as low as they could go. Same issue.
It wasn't overclocked either, although set to Gaming mode in GPU Tweak.

I think this is a different issue? I only see the lights in your car flickering.
On my one, there are random areas of the screen, that have large balls of flicking lights, with artefacts in the dead centre of them.
I'll try and grab some more examples from my recent streams.
