Guys. Having major graphical errors in the witcher 3. It's throwing black bars all over the screen and water is really freaking it out. I thought it was 16.12.2 but I've rolled back and it's still doing it.

Not played wither 3 with 17.1.2 but I have put in 80 hours on driver 17.1.1 and its been rock solid

YEah, there are major problems in GTA V too. Flashing green lines and white flashing pixilation. Its only 60 degrees and completely stock. no overclock, check all my connections are good....not looking great....
No problems in windows or videos. only games.

Glad i bought a FreeSync monitor with DP now.

If it's happening more than one game and even happening going back drivers it might be the GPU failing?
Soldato
Im thinking so. Going to try full DDU and monitor swap. If its still doing it then its RMA time I guess.
You dont have any issues with freesync in ubi titles using the latest drivers? if not, what screen are you using?
Soldato
does anyone else get a regular game freeze for about 1 second when the ReLive function is enabled? it doesn't have to be recording, just enabled in the driver section. No matter what game I play when I have mine enabled, quite regularly I get a complete game freeze for maybe 1 second. The game is playing in the background, because when I regain control I'm in a totally different position. It's happened to me on every ReLive driver I've tried, so I just have to keep the damn thing disabled now and it doesn't happen.
Soldato
Ok, I've done a full DDU. installed the 17 driver this time, tried another monitor and still getting crazy artefacting in all games and heaven. RMA time?

Hi I wanted some advice regarding the ReLive recorder.
I have a 3440x1440 monitor so I did a recording in what should be the native resolution 3440x1440, Does it do that in Relive? I ask because I uploaded it to Youtube and the highest resolutions on offer are 1080p50 and 720p50 and I'm unable to see what it looks like on a regular 1080p monitor or if it is in widescreen properly, It doesn't look too bad on my 3440x1440 monitor but it isn't looking as sharp as it should. The game itself was running closer to 150 fps as I used the fraps on screen display so I could see how big the hit was..

On 17.1.2 and on a previous version as well (I think it was the one right before 17.1.2) I've had two BSODs giving the error message THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER. One happened on boot and the other while watching YouTube.
Anyone else getting this? It's only happened twice so very infrequent, might DDU tho.

I've not seen that, I did DDU when we moved to ReLive though, so if you didn't it's worth doing that first and seeing if it happens again.

The Youtube video's now have 1440 and 4k options which is better. But the quality isn't that good though, Textures become blurred when moving, I don't mean motion blur I mean the recorded quality is looking low even when running the 4k youtube option, I posted the recording in the same format as Relive recorded it, Is that right or do I need to do something to it before uploading and if so what is it?
Well with delight I can unsubscribe from this thread. My 7870 started seriously playing up to the extent i couldn't wait any longer - ha planned to wait a few more months.
Anyway after years of petty niggles and patches of unreliability across two cards I'm back on NVIDIA probably in the first time in nigh on ten years.

You are in for a surprise my friend. They have their own issues over there in the green driver thread.
A vendor swap can also be an introduction to realisation of PEBKAC
I own and use both AMD and NVIDIA hardware on an almost daily basis, both practically have no issues for single GPU systems. You have to be doing something very strange or odd to get frequent problems, in my experience at least.
For example, that Tonyturbo guy who has posted more issues/problems in this thread than anyone else combined, all stemming from the fact he didn't research the limitations (and general bad state of Crossfire/SLI) of purchasing two 390 cards etc.

Indeed.
Been looking at AMD reddit today and noticed this:

That's the biggest problem, The idea of two cards giving double the performance is great, The reality is a bit different though and it doesn't surprise me that some people get caught out but it does when it's techheads who spend a lot of time on forums like this.
