Radeon Software 17.7.2 is installed on my system and i'm running the game with SweetFX. The game has these artifact on this mission:


Disabling SweetFX didn't help. My system doesn't have these kind of problems on another games. Is this a driver problem? R9 380 users, do you have the same issue?
 
Does it happen with any other game?

Those artifacts are usually then your graphics card is unstable -- Normally the memory. So if you have an OC try turning it down or use MSI afterburner to underclock the both GPU and memory to see if the problem still persists
 
What are the temps on your 380? What settings are you playing at? As @FreedomEclipse asked does it happen on other games?
 
Thanks for the replies.

No,there's nothing wrong with the temps. I googled about the problem and i figured out that's an AMD issue:

I had a similar thing with DayZ mod once upon a time if I recall... I had two 6970s in crossfire and AMD broke a crossfire profile which started causing ghosting and artifacts when i tried to run the game in crossfire. every time i ran the game id have to turn crossfire off and even then it would be a 50/50 chance my PC would BSOD at the loading screen... People were telling me it was because my CPU OC was unstable but I switched over to Nvidia and all the problems stopped....

AMD with their shoddy driver team who dont QC before release.
