ndunridge Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 After every update I get these weird shapes, all drivers and firmware are up to date. Just seems to happen after an update, I was on the multiplayer release today and it had been fine until I updated at the weekend. Many thanks Neil Windows 10 Intel® Core i7-7700K @4.20GHz Oculas Rift Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti 16GB RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diemos Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 This may not help you, but; Many years ago, I actually built video cards. I hand assembled prototype cards for a Bay Area manufacturer, and tested the first run of manufactured cards. In testing that batch, I have seen this exact issue. In that case, a capacitor had been wedged under the memory chip so that it bridged a few pins. Long story short, if you have the opportunity, try another video card to rule out a hardware issue?

ndunridge Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 Thanks very much for the reply with the information, I will try to get hold of another card to see if it happens again. Many thanks Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederf Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Almost every time I had that issue it was card overheating. But it can also be excess overclocking or driver issues or general hardware failing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndunridge Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 Thanks Frederf and Diemos. Tried a 1050ti and although image quality is greatly reduced the shapes didn't appear. The 1080ti never went above 60c to my knowledge. Regards Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndunridge Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 Just an update. I sent the card back and they found a fault. SCAN DIAGNOSIS - Artifacting in heaven benchmark 4K ultra settings. Thanks for all the help. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
