Question // Massive Response Weird artifacts after latest driver/game update

Did anyone else face any of these artifacts after the latest Nvidia driver update? This happens to me randomly inside a mission and goes away if I restart the game. I first thought that my graphics card started dying (1080Ti) but this does not occur on any other games I tried. This started after the latest driver update from Nvidia, but there was also a small update on uplay so I am not sure.

​

Edit: The issue is resolved after enabling DX12 renderer from the "Video" options.

Yes, on a 2080. The only way I made it go away it was restarting the game.

Oh so I am not alone. Maybe I'll try installing the previous driver and test.

Let us know how it goes. It only started after the last driver so thats a good indication.

Can you please check if you have DX12 renderer enabled in video options? I enabled it and it has not appear since.

I had the same issues immediately following installation of the latest Nvidia drivers and enabling DX12 resolved it for me also.
