Graphical artifacts only in fullscreen

Discussion

Hi guys,

So I just bought the game yesterday and when I try to play the game I have weird graphical artifacts on screen (for example the sky in main menu is bright blue). However these artifacts don't show up in screenshots and when I switch to windowed mode they disappear. I tried messing around with other settings too but they don't seem to have effect. It doesn't happen in any other game.

My specs:

i5-2500k, 16GB RAM, GTX960 4GB, win 10 (edit: CPU/GPU are not OCd, system on SSD, game on HDD)

what I tried so far:

  • verifying game cache
  • rebooting
  • reinstalling nvidia drivers
  • turning off all the overlays (steam and geforce experience)
  • messing around with various graphics settings
  • setting my second monitor as primary

but nothing seems to have any effect (except switching to windowed mode). Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

edit: here's how it looks on screen, in screenshots it's fine.

edit 2: manged to fix it using this. Forcing the game to run as borderless window fixed it.

edit 3: started working for me with the newest windows update (OS build 16299.15, nvidia drivers 387.92)

I was able to fix this by using DDU and installing all old drivers then reinstalling them.
