Graphics Issues

Ok, so every now and then, I load up BF3, and it looks like this;

Only appears to happen in BF3, although running 3DMark Vantage does show some flickering, but not like the above.
It only appears to happen when in xfire.
Have swapped cards around, same result.
Have replaced xfire bridge, same result.
Started happening around the same time I updated to the latest ATI drivers. Back dated to 11.8 and tried fresh build of Windows, still happens.

Has anyone else seen something like this?

I am starting to think one or both of my cards might be faulty. Maybe even an issue with one of the PCIe lanes on the mobo... God I hope not!

Specs in the sig if you need the extra info.

Update drivers, try turning off crossfire.

Almost certain to be a driver/crossfire issue with the game.

Going back to an older driver probably won't help your cause, particularly where bf3 is concerned.

Thanks for the advice. It must be a crossfire issue, as any driver set, turning off crossfire fixes it. Tis' a shame, but I can live with not having to replace my GPU's just yet.
