Try to get a refund and then spend a little extra at amazon.

I stopped messing with Newegg a while back because of their shytty return policies.

Yeah both games have a shytload of bugs, it's probably bad optimization.
On top of that, you are running a configuration that probably only applies to 3-5% of the user base. Only you and @2gunsup on here be running with off the wall shyt trying to run at 20K.

Yeah, but @Barney Rubble has the exact same setup as me, and he isn't experiencing any problems. I'm testing each card separately tomorrow (I tested enough games today). I'm still only getting flickering in BLOPS 3 and Fallout. I'll know if it's a bad card or not tomorrow, because if one flickers and the other one doesn't then I'll know the cause. I really hope both flicker though. I don't wanna go through RMA again with nvidia. I already RMA'd 2 titan x's. They're gonna give me the runaround trying to RMA a third Titan X, I just know it....ugh :beli:

Dumb question but did you try changing the resolution or anything while playing BLOPS3 or FO4?? Any graphical settings to change perhaps?? I remember I would get distorted colors and shyt on my screen playing Skyrim and it literally was just because downsampling wasn't working right.

Nah, newegg is refunding me in full because I'm a premier member. Their just not refunding me shipping charges - I pay shipping because I'm in Alaska. It's okay tho, at least they paid for the return shipping. their not as big a company as Amazon and have only a few retail stores so I can't expect to be spoiled like Amazon.

I will order one from Amazon... whenever it's available. Just ain't ordering expensive shyt from newegg.

I haven't touched the settings at all. Just all ultra (except God-rays on Fallout 4). Tomorrow will be the key. I've tested the cards enough. I'm gonna test one by one to see what's up. I really didn't want to do that, just because it's kinda a pain in the ass to remove gpus from my case and you always run the risk of breaking shyt, but it needs to be done. Sigh...

Nvidia is going to hang up on you.

BTW has anyone in here messed with an OCZ SSD? They have a 240GB for $60 on amazon. Thinking I might try that for the Xbox one. @daze23

That's what I'm afraid of. Nvidia is definitely gonna give me the runaround. It's gonna be a fukking hassle :mjcry:

I'm gonna have to provid videos from multiple games and do a bunch of bullshyt. Then it'll cost like $50 to insure the shipped cards. Then I gotta wait 2 weeks for them to test the cards themselves. Then they might not find anything wrong and send me back the bad card. Please, please don't let there be a bad card tomorrow :sadcam:

Why don't you just touch the settings? It seems like you're spending time on the complicated things first when it could've been something simple to check.

I was getting this on my Skyrim out the blue:

A077FEF6006A363CDF964406940B15F4893CBE1D

BACC9FAA4E9B32AB34C0FAFE9ECFD09955B256BC

and was going nuts. I couldn't tell if my card was bad because only Skyrim was doing this.

I finally changed the resolution and then realized it would do that whenever I tried to play Skyrim at 1440P downsampled. Problem was solved. Skyrim just was bugged out.

Maybe I'll try lowering the settings in Blops 3tomorrow first. That's a good easy thing to do. It might fix it. I hope :sadcam: that game flickers after like 2 minutes of playing.

Only reason I'm using one myself is cause as of now I have no way of having a wired connection. It serves me well for the most part, though my download speeds are trash. I average about 15Mbps up and 4 down, although I could probably fix this by getting a router that's AC capable. The particular card I'm using now is this.
I wonder if my shyt speeds are due to my network card? :patrice:

I mean i'm hooked up straight to the motherboard.

Should I try getting a network card for the pci slot?
