I don't downright hate Windows 10. It was a free upgrade, so I thought, "why the heck not"?
The OS itself is pretty good but ever since I upgraded I've been having graphics issues in numerous games, but I'm not sure if this is a software issue or a hardware issue, or if it's just a game specific issue that I'm not aware of.
Here's a list of some of the games I've been having issues with (all Steam games):
Dead Rising 3 (This is the most recent one; shadow and texture flickering; weird line effects on shadows)
Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (texture flickering; missing eyes with custom character)
Borderlands (really bad texture and shadow flickering; the menu went crazy when I loaded the game)
The Witcher (texture flickering)
Here my specs:
Windows 10 Home x64
AMD FX-8350 4Ghz Processor (Non-overclock)
2x8GB 1600mhz Kingston HyperX Blu DDR3 RAM (Dual channel)
Crucial MX200 500GB SSD (Boot Device; does contain some games)
WD 1TB 7200RPM HDD (Contains a large chunk of games)
EVGA 600B PSU 600w
Gigabyte GTX 660 OC Edition 2GB
I rolled back the video driver to a pre-Win10 version (347.88) and no luck. Issues still persist. Updated to latest driver but I'm unsure if it will fix anything. Next on my list is to re-seat my GPU into my other PCIx16 slot. Again, not sure if it will help, but I'm willing to try just about everything at this point. But I am certain that I never experienced these problems before upgrading to Win10, especially with Borderlands and DR3.
What do you guys think? I'm not a great troubleshooter so I welcome your feedback.
