Edit : its easier for me to just say oh well I will work around it and trouble shoot it myself. But when your giving something to someone else it some what reflects on my on how good a job I'm doing. I gave the same client a GTX 295 last time and it never had any driver issues that I know of the entire time.

I have had that problem with all the 7970 cards I have tested very small flickering some times very small line with small pixel glichs straight down the screen in desktop mode its just drivers. Some times just turning off the screen and turning it back on will get rid of it.

That is strange. I don't seem to have any flickering in games and so on.

Btw, who else is using Trixx on here? Decided to try it because I do have Sapphire cards after all and I noticed that I can overvolt to 1382mV indicated whereas AB would only give me 1300mV. Unfortunately my benching SSD is borked from driver install/uninstalls so I'm going to do a fresh Win7 install tonight and load up the latest 12.7 drivers. Can't wait to really start pushing this new water loop! Running Heaven 3.0 at 1250MHz and 1275mV and my temps never got over 49C...

yeah right now memtest passed 100%. I just reinstall my GPU into my second 3.0 slot so im going to test to make sure its not my mobo. Im going to install my 7950 onto my Samsung F3 500 gb here shortly to make sure its not my SSD. If everything passes then it is a GPU issue. The only things ive added in the last couple of weeks are my 7950 and my samsung 830 ssd so one o the other is the culprit
