7950 strange artefact, time to RMA ?

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Hey guys, i encounter some artefacts (like white dots) on the rocks : http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2012/32/1344635972-crysis-2012-08-10-23-40-54-276.png
I already tried to underclock, did a full drivers reinstall (12.7 beta vs 12.6), I tried to turn of afterburner, to turn down details or disable filters, same story mad.gif

I have also seen some grass blinking in GW2 ...

Thanks for your help !

Everything else seems fine on the screen.If you see more strange things(like different color boxes) then it's time to rma.

Like this badgpu.jpg



I sometimes get the weird graphics also(like the grass blinking in your case) I think it's a programing flaw.

What is the make of your 7950 card?

MSI (reference card)

I'll do more tests, ATM no problem with new vegas, wow, and metro.
Some artefacts in dayz but I think it comes from the game.

When it comes to crysis, its normal, i had that "problem" with every gpu system that i owned, draw distacne sucks in crysis 1.

I dont know for Max Payne 3 though.

Edit: Ops, didnt noticed that thread is pretty old. Sorry
