I recently bought a AMD Radeon 7970 video card and for the past week had no problems in game until today. I get flickering terrain and noticed textures doing a ‘lighning’ effect e.g. on roofs. This seems to happen randomly and then seems fine. I was logged in 5 mins into the game and the walls were flickering at Vigil’s Keep. Worst flickering glitches were doing the Legendary Karka queen event. I had been playing for perhaps a few hours when this occured, once event was finished no more flickering.
I have run Valley benchmark for 1 hour and temperature was stable at 75degrees. Played Skyrim on ultra settings over an hour and had no proplems.

Its a Radeon 280x/7970 series problem. Many people have it. Try to contact AMD to try to push them into looking into it.

I see, I ran stress tests and no errors. I read further through forums and came across past posts with this issue. Will see about getting this info to AMD, previous gpu I had was nvidea and not encountered this problem before.

I have had three different 7970s, two of which I still have and they have had no issues at all.

If possible swap it for a nvidia card. Did that myself when i had a radeon 7870 and there is no going back. Thats the only fix for it at the moment.
