[SOLVED] Asus Dual RX580-8G flickering artefacts

[Casso_cz]

I am getting flickering artefacts whenever I play any 3D game. Video:

I am using MB Asus P6X58D-E, which is old, but I got the graphic card basically for free... So why not get it working?
I installed the latest drivers and utilities (Win7), the card was not used for mining.

What 3d games please list it and also, does it still happen? And if anything else fails reinstall drivers

 

[Casso_cz]

I already tried reinstalling the drivers a couple of times. The Flickering basically applies to any game that does 3D rendering... Cities: Skylines (see video), Mudrunner, Disco Elysium... The problem certainly is not in the games themselves... 2D games like Banner Saga or Darkwood are unaffected.

Well here are the lists of things you should check
1. GPU clocks
2.the ports if they are damaged

1. Damaged cable of hdmi/DVI or displayport or damage of GPU cables power
2. Cable not properly secured : GPU power cables and hdmi or displayport fable

Chek

I used to sell these cards - if cooling is ok, the number one reason for artifacts is the driver. The number of times I had people reporting issues after they had installed the latest Adrenalin drivers from AMD was shocking. Best thing to do is let Windows install the drivers for you. They are almost always stable.

Eventually my friend who sold me the used card gave me another one instead. It uses the same chip (RX580 - 8G), but it is marked as Sapphire instead of Asus. I put it in and it ran great, no artefacts whatsoever. We will try to get a refund on the faulty one.

Just to be sure/on the safe side... what is the exact brand and model of your power supply?

It is Thermaltake Toughpower XT, 675W

Ok, yeah, the Toughpower is a good one. I was just concerned if maybe you had a PSU that was of lesser quality, and somehow, the Asus RX580 was pulling slightly more power than the Sapphire, and that slight extra power draw might have been just enough to push it over the edge.

Should be fine.
