Hi just installed BF4 I originally had an overclock on my GPU so when I started BF4 I thought maybe the overclock could be causing the problem.

So I decided to set it back to default and yet still there were lines flying all over the place I only get this on BF4. Is it just beta or are there drivers for BF4?
 
I didn't get a bad overclock errors this overclock is 100 percent stable on everything I've tested which leads me to believe it's BF4.
 
well... 1800mhz for memory is a big overclock...
sometimes you are getting errors but the ECC is "fixing" the image at a performance cost and MAYBE BF4 could feel this more than other games.

depending on the game I can run my gpu memories at 1800mhz without showing any erros, but getting a better performance using 1700mhz, that is because at 1800mhz the ECC is "fixing" the errors.

lower your memory clocks to 1500, restart and test again.
 
I'm possibly having issues with my memory clock on bf4 beta as well. For instance stable on crysis 3 at 1375mhz no issue but bf4 beta seems to throw out lines at even 1350mhz.
 
Skidmarks, Even mine at stock is throwing lines everywhere. Must be the drivers :(

I'll test further tonight as I'm on 13.10 beta 2 now, the latest drivers. I actually have a feeling it is driver related as you say. I get lines or polygon type shapes and textures in places they shouldn't be. I just don't see how crysis 3 could be fine at 1375mhz yet this has issues even at 1325mhz
 
Not using fraps of or anything with an OSD/overlay, since get crazy afrtifacts with my 7970 when enabled but with no OSD fine.

Good to know, I'll test tonight as everything I've tried so far has been with fraps running with just the fps counter.
