So there is the problem for the last half year......
My screen will bounce and flickers whenever i play some HD videos, Or playing games, Happens all the time during COD:Black OP2. Some times even gives me PC freeze or blue screen. back then,I was cross firing two asus 7970 DC2s I have some render problems like objects will have lines drawn over it. then i switch to ares2, at first it gives me errors like "AMD driver has stopped responding but has recovered.", That error went away as soon as i switched to the new RAM. now i'm having this flickering issue. I have tried any possible ways to identify the problem. But this thing is by now giving me thoughts to suicide.

My setups are as follows.

CPU:AMD FX8150 (Brand new purchased, 1 year old Good functioning) O.C at 4.4Ghz Multiplier 22, CPU ratio 200
Motherboard: Asus Crossair V Formular W/ Thunderbolt (Brand new purchased, 6 month old)
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 DDR3 2133 (Brand New 2 days old) Running at 10-11-11-31 54 1.51V
Power Supply: Rosewill LIGHTNING 800W 80 PLUS GOLD (Purchased Brand New 1 year old)
Monitor: 27" Asus
HD: 1TB, Western Digital (Purchased Brand New 6 month old)
Operating System: Win 8 pro 64bit
I don't think other hardwares will matter in this case.

I have tried the following with no lucks:
-bought a new motherboard of the same type Formula V, And replaced 6 month ago. No luck
-brought a new set of Ram replaced the previous DDR3 2000 Kingston T1 3X2Gb last week. No luck
-Tried using a 1000W power supply, But not a 80 Gold Certified. Same problem, No luck
-Tried using a new HD of 1Tb, Reinstall the OS, Reinstalled Drivers..... NO luck
-Tried using new Beta drivers, or clean install OS then install stock Drivers....... NO luck
-Tried Running everything in AUTO in BIOS......NO luck
-Before Ares 2, I tried cross fire two of asus 7970 DC2s
-Single Asus 7970 DC2s..........No luck

What I have NOT tried:
-Install Win 7.
-Using a 80 gold certified 1000W
-Using a qualified vender RAM
-Crossair Formula V-Z motherboard
-CPU AMD FX8350 (Arriving tomorrow, See if it works)
-Another Graphic card.

Would Anyone please please please help me out. I don't think i have enough money to buy new parts to test them anymore.
Some body, Anybody, Please help me out here. ....

Can you describe the flickering issue? Is it all the time or only when a 3D(DirectX) application is running? Have you tried another monitor or a different connector (HDMI vs DVI)?

Moderation note: Removed your duplicate threads since we ask that you maintain only one thread per issue. Thanks! 🙂

Hi, Thank you for the response.
I have tried different monitors. as well as different cable and different connectors.
This issue happens even in youtube.com. I don't think 3D is running by then. But so far the only game i have not seen issue is the Giuld war 2.
Please help~~~~

the flickering is like, the whole screen as an image will go off an inch for a split of second then back to normal . This thing happens randomly but often when playing game or watching HD videos.

Are you certain you don't just have known issues in CoD:BO2 when using Xfire? I had troubles W/AMD in Syrim W/Xfire and had to disable Xfire in Skyrim. AMD fail.

Just out of curiousity, what DirectX do you have running? and were you forced to install any of the older DirectX packs? like the 2009/2010 editions?

The latest report is, when i play the COD BOp2, this error came out and shut the application:
atidxx32.dll

xeromist · ‎03-11-2013

Well, here's a free option if you feel up to it: Download an Ubuntu Live CD and boot into that. It doesn't require any installation as it will just boot off of the CD. Then load up Youtube and see what happens. This completely eliminates Windows and the drivers as a possible cause without having to actually install a whole new OS. If it still happens then you know it is somehow hardware related.
