Sims screen keeps flashing

Hi

I updated the game yesterday for the big patch, now my game's screen keeps flickering when using directx 11. When using directx 9 it's fine, my graphics is capable to use even directx 12 so I don't understand why it's having an issue with 11..

  • Simisle  Thanks for the dxdiag.  One of your monitors is plugged into the motherboard, so please plug it into the graphics card instead.  This shouldn't be a problem—the GPU should have a couple of DisplayPort ports for you to use.  Restart your computer afterwards.

    It's worth unplugging and reconnecting the other monitor too just to make sure the cable is properly seated at both ends.
