Lastest Drivers installed and the graphics cards are the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 6950 TOXIC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Cards. There are two of them. The screen is the Dell UltraSharp U2711 27" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Midnight Grey. However the screen keeps flickering??? From centre to right. I am using the white cable. Any ideas as to why???
 
That's a bit too technical for me :rolleyes:

You need to be using the dual link DVI cable supplied with the monitor.

Is that the one you're using?

Yes i am using the Dual Link cable. Had a mental blank with the name. It still flickers. I am using two Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 6950 TOXIC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card's. Any ideas?
 
Also, after checking the dual link DVI Cable - are you sure you have enough power running to the card from the PSU?

I had the same problem on my old card whereby I had to upgrade the PSU to stop the random flickering.

If you use a DualMonitor/TV setup then I would also check that the TV is not in standby mode as that can cause the monitor to flicker (as it thinks a new device is continously being inserted into your GPU) if that makes sense?[/QUOTE

I am using the Corsair Professional Series AX750 High Performance 750W Modular '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply. Which should be more than enough power. I am not using the Dualmonito/ TV setup. Think it could be the cable or the screen. Is there any way of test if it is??
