AMD Club3D Radeon R9 380 Graphics Issue

Note sure if this is an issue with the driver or the card itself. Tried rolling the driver back. No help. I know if’s not a monitor issue since I can view the issue over chrome remote desktop from work. The graphics issue goes away “in-game” when I lower the graphics level. When I return back to the desktop, it’s still there. It’s only attached to “active graphics” such as the background of the start menu, certain textured terrain in-game, the ghost of the window frame when I open or close a window.

Hi TheKMan613, these seem to be artifacts from the GPU. Do you have a way of cross testing with a different card in your system or with your card in a different system? Thanks!

I have tried just going off the motherboard and there were no issues. I put the graphics card into my older computer and the issue followed.

please claim warranty from the place of purchase to get your Graphics card swopped.

I explained to Amazon that I was having so much trouble with the card and that I followed the troubleshooting advice given by Club3D (which wasn’t easy since the time between the responses was averaging 3 days). They gave me a full refund. Definitely not going back to AMD graphics cards any time soon.

you just got unlucky, still a bummer of course, but the R9 380 is actually quite steady normally.
