Graphics Glitching Out?

Hi all, I have had some graphics problems since I got my M17x R4. I have the 7970m.

When playing games(Doesn't really matter what game, happens on Battlefield 3, Team Fortress 2, Minecraft, Fallout 3) after a short while some glitches start happening. Not really sure how to describe it but some models/textures will stretch out sometimes just a little and other times taking up most of the screen. Also sometimes 2D images turn purple/green checkerboard type thing. Walls flicker.

I updated the drivers a month ago or so but that didn't change anything compared to earlier. I have the games set to High Performance in CCP.

I checked the temps and they rarely go above 60C.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

 

Hi, it sounds like you card is failing . This is known as 'artifacting', I've seen this on a card I used to have. Dell replaced it and the problem went away.

Always worth a rollback to the dell released driver version though since their support will probably ask for this before investigating. And who knows it might just be a driver installation problem

 

True. install the dell drivers first. it should be working
