Artifacts? Or are they not
Hey there,

recently I bought a graphics card and wanted to validate it's working just fine. So I ran the time spy test and I got some gfx issues, but I am not sure if they are already concerning or not.

It's just that, the mirror in the actress hand sometimes disappears and that the crystals underneath the ceiling have some "dark" or black spots.

Any ideas?

I didn't see anything at all in those screen shots that was something to worry about.

that's good to hear, it's just that, I am not used to not seeing the mirror in her hand though. It's just half there.

The mirror definitely should be there, but that doesn't look like a "gpu is faulty"-style artifact, more like "driver is buggy"-artifact. If possible, verify GPU driver is up to date and if it is, try with an older driver?

Edit: Never mind, misremembered how the test animation goes, those are from parts when the mirror has "folded". So looks normal.

I can verify this issue with:
  • Adrenalin 22.5.1 Recommended (WHQL)
  • Adrenalin 22.4.2 Optional
  • Adrenalin 22.3.1 Recommended (WHQL)

So maybe I should go back way more in the AMD driver history? I also performed "clean install/factory reset" upon every driver's installation.

Which GPU are you using and which OS?

it's normal, the "mirror" is a scanning device with a standby mode

FurMark or MSI Kombustor have a "artifact" scanner option.

This test was run on an AMD (Sapphire) RX6500 XT Device.
Windows 10 Pro, latest updates installed, latest chipset drivers intalled (AMD B450 Chipset).

Thanks for your advice. I am going to test those 2 options. And thank's for the yt-link. :)
