Well, I tried all that, and seems the only way is to set the lighting quality to the minimum. It also comes with the Nvidia optimization, but, the picture with the low lighting settings looks very awful. So it's kinda unplayable for me. Well, thanks a lot anyway for your help, hope I will find something to do eventually 🙂
I am sorry there isn't a better answer. There must be something about the driver for your particular card, since I can find a few other posts about the same card, with the same issue and resolution (lighting set to minimum).
You might have some better luck if you don't mind playing around with the Nvidia control panel. I played on Windows Vista Home Premium for years with a lower-end Nvidia card, and had the best luck by creating a profile and tweaking the settings in there (under "manage 3d settings). Interestingly, under SimCity 5, they recommend setting lighting = minimum and shadows = off. I agree, it looks awful like that. Sorry there doesn't seem to be much more to do. (Edit - here's a quick tutorial on finding the profile area http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2615/~/how-do-i-customize-optimus-profiles-and-settings%3F)
Hopefully, once your city grows past the Low Wealth Low Density phase, the issue will go away. If that's the case, you won't have to bear it much longer. Happy building!

Okay, I'll try to build some more to see if the glithes go away then. Thank you for your help anyway 🙂

Hey again. Want to report. So I tried to build some more zones and yeah, all blinkings has gone. Seems it works, the glithces appear at the start of the game. I will try to build really big city and see if that happen again or not to make sure 🙂
- BlackjackWidow7 years agoHero (Retired)That's so good to hear! Thanks for the update - I was just wondering if it worked out. Helps others who might have the problem in the future, too. So glad that you don't have to deal with that the whole time, it would be such a pain
