Out of curiosity, which cable do you have going into the TV? Display Port?

HDMI I was thinking it could be a cable... but the only HDMI Cables I have are from my PS4 and my other tv which is what I am using and I just order a higher quality one which should have by the end of the week but I thought the cable should not matter that much because when I play games at 1080p on the same cable that works

I know who this is. Is it doing it in other games then Far Cry 4?

Yeah I said it was a ubisoft issue, but it seems more like its either the cards or a driver issue.

Also you only get 60hz over Display Port or dual HDMI

Anyways it sounds like a driver issue/ bad cable

Does your TV have HDMI 2.0 support?  Does the cable you bought support HDMI 2.0?  Does the P-series use MST?  Is it a single 4k panel?  or is there Nvidia Surround being used to merge 2 panels?

All cables support HDMi 2.0 its a hardware level change not a cable change.

All the cables 'support' HDMI 2

There are diffrent versons of HDMI, you can do 4k at 60hz if teh GPU and the HDMI cable are compatible with that verson.

 

DVI and or DP will most likly be your only way to do 4k at 60hz

 

 

Check your display settings for what Hz the TV is running at.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that HDMI is limited to 4K at 30Hhz.

 

 

I have p series vizio 4k tv which is capable of 4k at 60hz but when I go into games it has a green flicker that will not go away unless I disable SLI if anyone has a fix or have heard of this issue and can point me in the correct direction for help I will be in your debt

Hi guy. I'm having the same SLI 4K flickering problem when running games. I have a Vizio M60-C3. I'm using HDMI port 5 on the TV. My PC has two reference GTX980 in SLI mode using Nvidia drivers version 353.30 and Windows 8.1 64-bit. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
