Any Crossfire/SLI Users NOT Having Flickering?

I'm sure we're all quite aware that many are having flickering texture issues with a multi-gpu setup. Disabling multi-gpu seems to remedy the issue, however this also impacts performance, negatively, and at least for me, makes the game unplayable.

With that said, is there anyone who IS NOT experiencing flickering/missing textures while running the game in a multi-gpu configuration in fullscreen mode? If you are not experiencing issues, perhaps you can share details as to what you have done as a temporary workaround?

I'm sure DICE will release a patch quickly to resolve the issue, as I am sure a significant portion of its' user base is affected, but in the meantime, I as well as many others I am sure, would like to play the game.
 
DICE, if you have a hotfix available, please release it.

    To tell you the truth I am not seeing any of this all I can think of is that I have a really powerful rig that is all I don't think there are workarounds for this only fixes in the patches to come 

    if this helps pleas give XP to my account thanks
    mark this as solution if it solves your question so others will know the answer when they come here

    If you aren't having the issue what type of GPU(s) are you using.  How do you have them configured? Are you running SLI/Crossfire? Are you running the game in borderless or windowed mode which effectively disables xifre/SLI?

    Unfortunately your reply has not helped at all, stating that you have a really powerful rig does not provide the details necessary to make necessary adjustments.

    Hi,..

    Well i'm having the issue after the update of the 16th. It is giving me a headache playing with this flickering screen.

    I have two MSI AMD Radeon HD 7900 series in crossfire.

    After I disabled the crossfire option the flickering was gone BUT the card couldn't handle the ultra settings anymore so I have to switch to auto modus.

    But what's got be worried is that Vincent OK (http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/view/2955064768683803785/) only talks about SLI and not Crossfire while BOTH setups experiening problems.

    I am running all games in fullscreen modus not windewed an not boxed !!

    2x MSI HD 7930 crossfire

    Intel i7

    2x SSD samsung

    16gb memory

    Having the exact same issue. Dual 7950, 3930K, 16GB. Everything is on stock settings, nothing is running Windowed or Full Screen Windowed. Everything worked fine up until the patch of the 16th. The patch seems to have broken the game for ***ALL*** Crossfire/SLI users as far as I can tell.I still love the game but I'm glad I have not yet paid for Premium.

    **Edit:** apparently some guy had some luck with some NVidia Beta driver but the guy claiming it worked was actually using triple videocards so it may or may not still be broken for dual videocard users.

    So not a single crossfire or SLI user without flickering.  Way to go DICE/EA!

    Looks like they already have a fix developed and are testing it (@twitter)
