When I try to play BF3 the screen flashes like crazy and is impossible to play. I have the latest drivers. I have the latest updates. I have had this problem for a long time. What gives?

Just to make sure your video card is not overheating try running Furmark for 10 minutes or so. If you start seeing artifacts then that maybe the problem.

sorry guys i dont know how usefull my comment will be, but i have heard the exact same issues with other guys with 560 ti's... and i think it had something to do with them either being factory overclocked, or running not enough volts or to much volts, i just dont remember, it was over at geforce dot com forums, IIRC dropping the OC would fix it, or increasing the volts would fix it.

Yip there was a big noise on the nVid forms and also the BF forums. Not sure what the fix was.

To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

I agree that you have to check carefully at what volt they are running as that can be the deciding factor on this side. There are some who say that they are getting over clocked a little too much that they are not able to function and work at a comfortable state already.

Or trying to run Furmark for a couple of minutes will surely be very helpful here, to determine possible causes of it.

Mr notu how did u go in solving this issue?

Syber · ‎03-15-2012

It could be because you are running an FX. not all Games support the FX series, no idea why though

Current Specs:
Asus Crosshair II Formula ( running old school )
AMD Athlon64 le-1600 @ 2.8Ghz
2GB DDR2 800MHz
Sapphire Radeon HD3870 512MB @806Mhz

Sorry for the delay. Some guys would under clock their GPUs and that worked for them. Seemed to have too much factory on it. Mine would run with one card but not two. Seemed to have worked itself out. I get better play at stock settings than OCing. FutureMark ran just fine with one or two cards. Also 3dMark11 got a decent score and ran fine with extended tests.

Why can I not play BF3?
