Hi All,
I have a problem on my 7970's I've recently noticed. I've had moments in Bioshock: Infinite when a square of the screen has rendered incorrectly, this remains until I restart the game. I thought it could be a bug with either the game, drivers or running in tri-fire. I tried updating to the newest catalyst drivers and only running a 1 card setup but it still happened.
Then I noticed that on grey screens I get blue pixels being rendered on and off in a sort of 'sparking' effect. (See video I just uploaded, best watched in 720p rather than the youtube default. This is just the background texture in the Steam application. It's the most obvious at the end of the video)

The temps seem fine as well and the blue pixel effect happens when I'm on the desktop without any stress on the cards.
Has anyone else had this problem or is my card(s) screwed? Or possibly any troubleshooting advice? They're only about 6 months old as it is. The RMA process will be a pain I'm guessing if it's possibly a hardware issue.
Many thanks,
Dan
