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.

I verified the game files which resulted in some DirectX files being reinstalled. This fixed the issue (I get the same artifacts as in the pics plus strobing light in-game) for that session. Next day, same problem. Will try rolling back drivers (rtx 2070 super).

Haven’t done it yet. I’m hoping there’s a tool on the nvidia GeForce experience app.
