Has anyone else encountered this graphics bug?

This is something that only happens on AC for me, but I get the craziest artifacting sometimes. It's especially noticeable in replays, but happens in normal driving too. The most common artifact is a sun flare that flashes all the time when the car or camera is in a certain place, others are large black masses around the tyres and flashing spots.

I was so worried it was my GPU at first but benchmarking tools and other games have yet to show any problem, so I figure it must be the game itself? Maybe a driver issue?

I've got an i5 6600k and a Sapphire R9 390 under the hood, and it's all new.

Just seeing if anyone else has seen these or if there's a fix.

That's weird as hell that is. Can't even think of what that would be.

Looks like your video card artifacting. I'd use something like MSI Afterburner to slightly decrease the clock speed (and memory clock) of the card (by something like 50Mhz just to check), then run AC again. If it persists, it probably not the GPU.

It persists. It also only happens in AC, and only in certain scenarios and camera angles. I'm more inclined to believe it's a bug with the game than my GPU.

What temperatures is your GPU hitting? MSI Afterburner will give you your GPU temps, run the game for a bit with it in the background and see what the highest temp is. In my experience that kind of artifacting is when the VRAM is getting a bit hot.

No higher than 69C.

And no artifacting in programs like FurMark or Kombustor? (GPU Stress Tests)

Try reinstalling the game. Its a long shot, but it might pan out.

I've already given that a try to no success. I think I'll just get in touch with Kunos.

I know what you mean. Go on brands Hatch at the latest possible time you can on Assetto corsa and it happens. I think it's to do with the dynamic lighting and shadows n shit
