Common issue with the R series. I personally just wait 5-10 minutes or just restart. Is she running more than 1 monitor?

flickering how?

 

check the cable connection, also check if the cable has frays.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

if it's that fast a flicker it is the card. not the cable.

it's almost never the display.

 

update the card drivers. then restart.

That's not what I was thinking of. When it happened to me, my screen flickered red. Try reinstalling the drivers on another monitor. Definitely check the cable, though.
