Can anyone help with this HUD graphical issue?

Post » Sun Jan 17, 2016 12:29 pm

Hello peoples,



I recently just started getting a weird graphical bug in my games where any dust, debris, blood, or blur effects that're supposed to show


on my HUD interface show up as glitched large squares instead.



I've tried different resolutions, high, and low game settings with no luck.



Any help or ideas would be awesome. The only thing I've done differently to my computer recently is get a new monitor but I'm not sure


how that could affect it like this.



Thanks!

I get that too but it's no fault of the game. It looks like your GPU is overheating/having issues.



Mine is due to the specific GPU I use. It is known it was designed poorly and the VRAM chips overheat. (Asus 280x TOP.) It does what you linked and also artifacts badly at time.



What GPU are you using? Is it overclocked at all, factory or user?

Do you get artifacts in various games, or only Fallout 4?

It could be reladet to your PSU, it could be related due to the overclocked VRAM factory settings, and a BIOS (if existend for your GPU) update wouldn't harm either.

Fallout 4 is the only game this happens in. And I haven't switched my GPU or CPU since the release. This issue only started recently.


I also upgraded to windows 10 recently too, but not sure if that means much.



I have a GTX 970 and it is overclocked by factory.

Sometimes the Windows 10 installation can mess up drivers. My laptop had manufacturer drivers for the touchscreen and touchpad, and the Windows 10 installation apparently replace both with generic drivers, which don't work quite right. Although I'd hope it would leave graphics cards alone, reinstalling your graphic card driver is probably worth a shot.

Try verify your game cache to make nothing was changed. Is it possbile to post your dxdiag report?


I m running a default overclocked 970 in Win10 and everything is okay.
