Title: Weird screen glitches when mining on 14.2 beta drivers??
Post by: taruntj5 on March 06, 2014, 02:31:49 AM
I get weird screen glitches like blinking white boxes when I mine on catalyst 14.2 drivers, i'm using 2 *280x and cgminer 3.7.2
here what config file looks like cgminer --scrypt --intensity 13 -g 2 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 --temp-target 70 --temp-cutoff 90 --thread-concurrency 8192 -o
I really wanna use 14.2 drivers because of mantle, so if anyone knows any fix for it that'd be really great.

Thanks

Try swapping the 2 cards.  It sounds like artifacting from the primary display card which could be an indication of the card beginning to deteriorate.  If swapping the cards resolves the issue the card that is current primary is beginning to have physical issues.  MANY users mine with cards that are artifacting for extended periods of time, but this is one indication of a card failing.

but the card works fine on 13.12 drivers.
