What causes side displays to flash & flicker in-game?

Post by Funkengreuven »

I've seen this before, but I don't know a good place to start troubleshooting this issue, or what the possible fixes could be. Playing the new Watchdogs 2 in Nvidia surround, both side displays flash black & white, textures flicker, and black textures appear on objects in-game. It only happens when you're outside in the game world and it only affects the two side displays which are also darker than the primary/center display. I've tried every possible setting in-game to no avail, so I was hoping someone on here might know a work-around or something they used in the past to help with this type of issue. I've tried vsync, limiting pre-rendered frames, changing CPU priority, and every other crazy idea I can think of, but nothing helps. Also, when you're in the game it will not let you choose the refresh rate in multi-monitor, so I could not try to change it from my default which is 120hz. Just wondering if anyone has any "tips" or insight into this type of issue.

Thanks!

Could be one GPU malfunctioning. How are your displays connected to the GPUs ? Did you try plugging all monitors to the topmost card ?
