INSANE FLICKERING FIXED!!! (ATI Radeon 5970 with Crossfire)

Post » Mon Jan 31, 2011 8:10 am

I managed to fix the insane flickering for my dual ATI Radeon 5970 HD PCIe cards with crossfire by downloading the latest drivers and application profiles.

NOTE: These are for Win 7 64bit

Specifically those files were...

Catalyst Software Suite version 11.2
ATI Catalyst Application Profiles version 11.2 CAP4

Here is the link for the files

http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx

One last thing, navagating the ATI website today (so I could post this fix) I noticed that the ATI website has more then one way to navagate to their drivers and that the "ATI Catalyst Application Profiles" are not the latest in some areas of the site. The correct Application profile should specifically mention Crysis 2.

If you have a different Operating System or model ATI card then myself I would recommend useing the link below to find your correct driver. It was from this page that I was sent to the correct driver page with the latest Application Profile.

Hope this info can help some people.

Happy gameing

Use Radeon Pro and under tweaks use the Bioshock profle.

Not for nothing, but telling people the solution is to disable SLI or Crossfire is not a solution. Grant it they know it an issue and they are working on, but there is no solution at this time.

That being said being I am an owner of an SLI system and I am also getting the flickering issue. I will just wait until either Crytek or Nvidia (or in OP case ATI ) fix the issue.
