Hey there.

Today my GPU started acting weird. No matter what game I play and no matter what resolution and graphics detail I configure them to (they're usually just at max), many of the objects in the games are constantly flickering (like the mountains and bushes in Crysis). I've tried reinstalling the drivers, and then tried updating them. Nothing works.

Help!!
