susscon 45 Posted August 10, 2012 well no matter what i tried, using night vision u cant avoid the flickering what so ever!i have tried using fraps to record it, but the strangest thing is, as soon as u hit record on fraps, its stops!! LOL!this is the most fuked up problem i have ever come across, its like both my cards and the game is playing games with me hahah.well ATI can do one!! had enough of there drivers and compatibility issues with not just ArmA but all games (Good Excuse for an upgrade)... and im selling my 5850's and going for a GTX 580 SLI setup. just a single GTX 580 has good reviews for running the ArmA series so a 580 SLI setup ''fingers crossed'' is gonna be the bizz. also there aint as many nvidia users as ATI with the flickering problem either.i hope the rest of you with this problem eventually find a solid solution to fix this.but my motto is.. if u cant fix it... BIN IT and get something new Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedra 4 Posted August 23, 2012 This has been happening forever in Arma - it's the AMD crossfire profile that needs to be fixed. In the past AMD have been pretty silent on the matter, but now there are millions of you using DayZ perhaps if you pester AMD they will make a new profile. I have an HD5970 OC and have been experiencing this in Arma 2 for a couple of years now.I can get it stop happening by reducing texture detail to normal - this drops the GPU workload to around 65% on each GPU on my system and then there's no flickering. As soon as GPU gets above 95% on each card then in certain lighting situations I get the flickering strobe! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nvidia is tha way forward for me. Edited August 23, 2012 by Susscon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
