Artifacts in game, did you ever see that?
Summary:

First of all this is what we are talking about(screenshots below).
I have veryfast tilting triangle artifacts appearing for no reason in Dota2.
Because of the screen frequency i can't really get good screenshots of artifact.
So, SCREEN 1 is a screenshot with some 'minor bugs' and SCREEN 2 is the same one photoshoped to reproduce what i can see with my human eyes.

I tried a lot of thing: clean re-install, cleaning cache, opengl or vulkan, update drivers of course.
I was not able to eliminate artifacts and they happen only in Dota (i play starcraft2 and hearthsone too).

I had these artifacts on 2 different config:

first one was i73770K / MSi Z77A / Geforce 570 GTX / 8go DDR3 / windows10 32 bit
second one is i7 6700K / Asus P170 P / MSi Geforce GTX 970 / 8go DDR4/ windows10 32 bit

I did the free upgrade (my bad) to win10 about at the same time of Reborn and artifacts begun around this time.

I rarely have crashes ingame, but i guess everyone has...


Repro Steps:

I did a few tests and i don't see any logic.

- Artifacts never came at the first launch of dota on menu.
- Most of time it begins while game is launched. And i wonder if having a lot of sprites (teamfights or lots of visual effects) could major it...
- I feel like doing alt-tab can favour the appearance of Artifacts.
- When Artifact come, dc/rc don't always work. Most of time i have to relaunch the game.
- When i have one triangle i can play, but if i keep playing and moving the camera it gets worst and worst. Then artifacts stay even if i go back to main menu.
- Sometimes, changing resolution parameters can fix Artifacts


I can't find anyone talking about that on the world wide web, so you are my last chance.

Cheers and sorry for my english.
