I guess what i need to do is determine if there is an issue with the card that way i can get it returned asap. So if those charts make since to you and there is an issue with the card please let me know. Or if there is another way to test the card to ensure its ok im willing to try so i know.
PS: The cards where from me for me and him for an early Xmas present.

Didnt drop any frames tonight was at an average of about 90 fps every time i check with Not counting TQ where i was at 23. Drivers have tried both the newest and the beta and both have the issue.

New PC built 2 days ago

CPU – i7 4790k 4.0ghz
GPU – R9 295×2 (single card)
MOBO – ASUS Z97 Mark1
RAM – 16gb Corsair Vengeance (2133Mhz)
PSU – Thermaltake SP-1200M
OS – Win 8.1
HD – Kingston Hyper X 250gb SSD

When in game the lighting on my character and some times others flicker like a strobe light. Also getting FPS drop, when i log in its around 175 fps after an hr 6 fps… Not a faulty GPU or CPU because it has no issue with other games and brother also runs the same GPU from a diff manufacturer ( one Visiontek other XFX) and is having the same issue with the lighting. Not sure he is getting the FPS drop but 100% sure he has the strobe issue. This set up should be way more than enough to max out GW2 on max setting with great FPS. Don’t know what the issue is just looking for suggestions because the FPS drop makes the game unplayable

I just purchased R9 295×2 and am getting a lighting issue on the characters causing a strobe light effect as well as dropping frames. Going from 175 FPS to 6 in about 45 min to an hr. My brother is having the same issue with his card and they where purchased from different manufacturers. With that said I would assume that the game is not optimized for the R9 295×2. Hopefully they do so soon cause it makes the game hard to play when you have a strobe light effect on your toon and have to reboot every hr.
