So these drivers have made my display act really weird with freesync on. I'm using a XL2730Z right now, and whenever I play a game and alt tab out of it the desktop starts flickering annoyingly, like the backlight is changing brightness quickly. Before I updated my drivers, I was getting this problem in heroes of the storm, however, it never happens in any other game I've tried or on the desktop. With the crimson drivers, every time I alt tab out of the game the backlight is flickering weirdly, seems to be somewhat tied to any movement on the screen, if I move the mouse around or something like that it starts flickering. It still doesn't do it in-game except for in heroes of the storm so I don't know what's going on.
Also, when I first installed the crimson drivers today it was making my system crash quite a bit, after uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers it stopped crashing but the flickering is still there. FWIW this happens in both windows 8.1 and 10, with the same behavior for pre crimson and the crimson drivers. Not sure if I should report this as a bug to AMD or something, it seems to be driver related but maybe it's a problem with my monitor as well. Anyone else here having any problems with freesync at all?
Edit: Downgraded my drivers and the flickering on my desktop went away completely, still happens in game in heroes of the storm though. I'd really like to know if anyone else is having the same problem using freesync, I'm wondering if I should return this monitor but it really seems to be more of a driver issue.
