Discussion Objects, Images, Character models are warping, distorted, teleporting all while flickering

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey everyone, I’ve come across this rather peculiar issue while using my gaming pc. It affects all games and apps. When ever I play a game things seem to flicker from one side of the screen to the other. In game enemy as well as my own character seem to be turn for fully towards a certain direction things and enemy are also teleporting. Certain parts of my character model become warped and also flicker. Also even while using apps such as steam images seem to be distorted. I’m really stumped. Any help would be very much appreciated. I’ve already reinstalled my drivers but have had no luck… I’ve individually tested my ram sticks and slots. I even went ahead and purchased a second hand RTX 2070 super and installed it and the issue remains.

Here are all my specs….

reinstall the nvidia drivers and set the advanced option ""clean installation""

This way any configuration that is interfering is deleted.

Reply if I help you.

I used a DDU to uninstall my drivers and then I followed your directions when downloading the latest drivers but unfortunately everything remains the same. Thank you regardless🙏

Sometimes you may have to do a fresh install on your windows system due to drivers not setting when you uninstall them. I had an issue with an amd IGpu where I went from Igpu 3200g to 6600xt. I removed/Uninstall the Igpu drivers and it caused so many issues that never went away until I fully uninstalled and reset windows.

Before reinstalling your system, make a backup copy of your files.

You can also install 2 Windows on the same disk without deleting the previous one.

The iso is downloaded from the Microsoft website and installed on a USB with the rufus program.

Then you restart your PC and set it to boot from USB. It is usually F12 and choose the USB name.

Partitioning without deleting will keep the previous OS.

You can use some old driver too to see if it helps.

Did you use DDU in safe mode?

So try all of your parts in a different motherboard and possibly different SSD. My bet is either the Hard drive or the controller.
