Hey guys, having an issue with my XFX 5770 XXX card. I just put together this machine a couple of months ago.
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H
CPU: AMD 965 BE
GPU: XFX 5770 XXX Edition
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 2253LW
So, it goes like this:
I started noticing 'artifacting' on the primary screen almost from the get go (I run two monitors, both on DVI). I kind of put up with it because I thought nothing of it. I finally decided to start looking into it now. The second monitor shows no issues whatsoever.
The problem is clearly evident when doing very simple things, more commonly when watching a video or when loading a video on YouTube. It also appears when minimizing Windows Explorer sometimes.
I didn't notice it when playing any PC games at all (although I haven't launched one in a couple of weeks).
So, anything I can do to figure this out? I've swapped the cables on the card and the issue is still here. I am running Windows 7 64-bit.
Thanks for any help you guys can provide, cheers.
