GPU artifacts,only with Windows 10

[Mancube]

@wkdpaul That was my idea also,but I tried Win10 this summer,same problem, I gave up and installed Win7,all worked nicely until last week,when I decided to upgrade because of DX12 and the fresh GUI etc.

The problem returned again,so I really hope it isn't the GPU(this is my second R9 270x,I had to RMA my last one,died 2 days before the warranty ended )

Testing VRAM now,maybe it is the issue again..

 

 

Edit: As I'm writing this,this happened..

Test completed,no errors.

Yet still, corruptions on the screen

Some dumb option in Win10 or maybe a driver issue?

not sure if it's an option in Win 10, at this point it could be the core itself, also it shows corruption in Chrome because GPU acceleration is enabled by default, if you want to turn it off;

 

• Go into Settings.
• Click on "Show advanced settings" and scroll to the "System" section.
• Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available" and restart Google Chrome.

@wkdpaul That fixes it in Chrome, but what could I do to test and eliminate all possible defects?

to be 100% certain, installing another similar GPU (270, 280, or even an old 7950 or 7870) in your PC. That would clear everything up since they are very similar and you shouldn't need to re-install any drivers.

GPU burning test,no artifacts.. (I really don't have an idea what could be causing this)

@wkdpaul Only GPU i'll have access to is my brother's R7 240,could I use that?

[Mancube]

I found the artifacts, PhysX test..

Also,this.

Going for a DDU driver clean,and then I'll try the WHQL driver 16.7.3 (now I'm on 16.9.1 hotfix)

 

Edit: No artifacts now on Kombustor tests,no artifacts currently.

With the Microsoft default gpu driver,no artifacts appear and all works OK.
