Frame generation causing screen flickering?
Anyone else?
When it’s on it causes the ground textures to flicker while moving but I get 120fps, and if it’s off the screen doesn’t flicker but I only get 65fps. Why is it doing this? I have 7900xtx and this is with AMD frame gen.

For me the issue is with my Samsung Oled tv. The screen will flicker with frame gen on in game mode. Turn game mode off and no more flickering. Something to do with VRR in game mode I think.

it does flicker a lot in some places yes, many youtubers are showing that but not sure what causes it

FSR 3 frame generation does not currently work on Nvidia graphics cards, only on AMD. This is a problem of the game, it will be fixed soon.

Quote from the article:
Regarding AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Generation, although it worked perfectly fine with AMD’s GPUs, it did not work at all on NVIDIA’s GPUs. In the video above, you can see this issue on the NVIDIA RTX 4090. Again, FSR 3.0 FG worked fine on the AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX. So that’s another issue the devs will have to fix.

got it on game pass. no flickering yet. i got a samsung G7. some games would cause flickering. like dredge. turns out it was the black equalizer. mine was set to 13. set it at 14 and the flickering stopped. this may not be related but it fixed the flickering for me.

I'm using it fine with a 2080ti and yes it does cause flickering. A fix would be nice.

He's using a 7900xtx... I have the same issue, the game looks perfect with it enabled, its more the menu, inventory etc, they go semi transparent a flicker

i'm running the game under proton experimental, 6900xt, and mesa drivers. the ui flickers when frame gen is turned on.

You can mitigate some of that if you turn sharpening down to 0% but it doesn't remove it entirely that's why I ditched the upscalers and locked the frame rate to 60.

Just lock it to 60 and turn off FG dude. It’s junk tech on both sides fence.

turned my monitor's adaptive-sync on and lowered its response time and it fixed the flickering.

You need one of the AA methods active for the flicker to go away when you have FSR3 Framegen active, You can't run framegen on it own, so enable TAA/FSR/TSR, DLSS or XESS

and yes FSR Framegen will work on Nvidia cards I have a 3070

What monitor and what did you lower the response time to if I may ask?

MSI MAG301RF and put response time from fastest to normal

I tried it but I ended up putting it back to fast.

Fixed mine by changing the aspect ratio from 21:9 to auto
