this looks like a faulty GPU issu even tho u said u tried different GPU. Could also be a RAM issu.

Tried formating entirely your PC?

Apparently Nvidia broke OpenGL 1.1 games (and other old games) with their tile based rendering changes.

My next GPU will be AMD for sure.

Hmm, what is your OS? Also how come other ppl with GTX 10xx dont have any issues?

I have a GTX 1080 Ti and never had any issues (not even in QL), even tho i upgrade my driver very frequently (up to date almost all the time).

Are you using vertex mode in QL? I use every thing to default expect a few stuff and it works perfectly.

Yeah I use vertex mode. You gotta realise that these issues are very rare and only happen maybe one in ten times and even when they do happen they only last a split second. The recording I took was an exception where it was really bad for some reason. Most people wouldn't notice these things, so saying nobody else has this problem is assumptuous.

Woah I had this issue on my GF2 MX200 15 year ago

Buy the $1300 Turing™ card instead, it just works.

Are you sure flickering is not caused by a certain ingame command ?

I'm pretty sure i've seen that before in either Q3 or QL.
I can't remember when or which gpu i had.. but it definitely wasn't with gtx 1060.

Try with default game settings and see if it still happens.

It's not just a flicker, if you notice carefully surfaces actually become removed momentarily. Also my config has not changed through different graphics card revisions.

wh, rapported

Update: There have been two very helpful suggestions in the Nvidia thread linked. Please try them if you have issues, so far they seem good to me.

Hi storm-[D] :) !

Could you please upload or share the profile with me?

I got the same issue with my GTX 1060 6GB.

Maybe I'll see you around soon, as I'm moving back to the UK next week. Looking forward to some euro quake again :)

Great thanks a lot mate! :D

I will test it out as soon as possible.

See you around soon!
