Hi guys please see the image, is this artifacting? What can be the cause of this?

Ongoing problem with this graphics card (4th one of same type) ready to get money back if this is the case as I;ve tried enough to get this to work.
 
AMD 8320
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0
Superflower golden green 650W
Sandisk 120GBHDD
Seagate 1TB SHD
Rajtenik Thermis CPU cooler
Teamgroup black 8GB 1600MHz RAM
 
Just played an hour of Rome 2 and all seems fine. Still looks great. Will try BF4 again tomorrow see what happens.
 
Still getting it now. Seems to be a lot of stuttering in the game also, is this just how poor BF4 is? I get in to a plane and it basically shakes!
 
Still getting it randomly in BF4. Ran a benchmark on Cinebench and got no problems, not sure how I can test the GPU. Anyone know if there is a way to test the GPU to make sure it's not faulty?

Just out of interest, are you using the latest 14.9 drivers from AMD?

Using the latest non beta drivers. Getting the problem in Rome 2 now, only firefox open in background.

Anyone have suggestions what I can do?

download DDU and uninstall all your drivers completely. ( Safe Mode ), then install driver and see how that is.

Thanks. Did this when I first got the card back from RMA but did it again yesterday just to make sure. Nothing else open except for the game and still has the artifacts. So both games I play Rome 2 and BF4 has it.
 
I lowered it and the artifacts reduce but do not dissapear.

That was at 1050, should I lower it more? Would like to RMA and get a different make/model as I can't run both of the games I want without artifacts on screen and can't run the card at the speeds/clock it was sold to me at.
 
Card didn't break 60 degrees.

It is a factory OC card (why I bought it as I thought it would be stable and didn't want to OC myself).

I will find the standard clock for the 280x then and set it to that but to be honest I paid the extra for the factory OC that I can't run it at. To say it's dissapointing is an understatement!
 
It wasn't OC'ed by OCUK though it was done by the manufacturer. Trying to RMA it as I can't play the games I bought it for but being told it's a game bug rather then GPU issue. Not sure what I can do now :S

Does rome 2 use the same engine as BF4? Not at home untill Friday now was going to try beta drivers then to see if that helps any but Matt on different thread said this wasn't a reported bug.

I play battlefield and loads of my friends and none of us have heard of that or get problems like that on the game. He also gets the problem on another game so it can't be down to Battlefield. Also there is nothing about it online. Its not down to BF4 i don't think Daz.

Do you have another pc to try the card in?

I've got my old PC hardware now I've changed my case I can set it back up and run some tests again. Probably need a copy of Win7 though. Wish it wasn't this difficult!

Also going to use fraps to record everything from now on. When/If you see what happens in Rome 2 you'll have a good laugh!
 
Thanks guys.

It never happened previously untill now, and it's on Rome 2 total war also but I couldn't get screenshots of that. Going home Friday to test it some more but all benchmarks come back ok and no errors reported on them so it is looking like a game glitch unfortunately.

I'll try record it just to show everyone.
