Has anyone had any flicker issues with Call of Duty 4 and the ATI 5850's?
I just set up a pair and the game flickers in both the startup menu and actual gameplay.
FPS are fine (running about 250 average at 1920x1200 with 4x AA)but there are bands of flickering running up and down the screen.
The odd thing is that Call of Duty World at War (which uses the same engine) runs perfectly.
I tried a couple of other games and ran 3dmark06, all without issue.
I monitored the cards temps and they never exceeded mid 50's celcius under load.
My 3dmark06 score (ironically enough) is actually a bit higher than I got with a pair of 5870's (all other settings the same). Not sure how that happened but that's a good thing.
Next option would be to roll back to a prior driver version (I am running 9.11 currently) but the game ran fine with these drivers with my 5870.
Any thoughts?
