HD 7950 Flickering?

[Jamy]

Hey guys, I got this card recently and am having issue, it isn't very often or very major when it happens but there is just an occasional flicker on games I've looked out and about and found out it is apparently a fairly common issue?

Does anyone know any fixes of have some info for me on this?

could be driver related... is it a new issue or been there from the start ??

I've got the newest drivers for my card, it's been setup for about a week now and it's been there since day 1. As I say I've read a lot of mixed things about people talking about not having the problem after fixing it but no real explanation.

Contemplating flashing the bios to a 7970 and seeing if that changes anything.

Be careful. You could void the warranty instantly. Have you tried a different cable and/or slot on your card and monitor?

Do you mean tearing? If so, try switching vsync on.
