Hardware acceleration causes artifacts and othe wierd rendering glitches on new pc
This is probably more suited for bugzilla, but I wanted some sort of confirmation, has this happened to anyone else?
So I just built my new PC and was starting to think my video card was faulty because of all the artifacts and weird rendering issues I was seeing.
So after trying several versions of drivers for my graphics card with the problem persisting; I noticed the artifacts only appeared when firefox was open... on a hunch I decided to turn off hardware acceleration.. tada! no more artifacts.
Specs are as follows:
Video Card: ASUS EAH6850 DC/2DIS/1GD5/V2 Radeon HD6850 1GB GDDR5 PCI-E
CPU : Intel Core i5 2500K Sandy Bridge 3.30GHz 6MB 95W LGA1155
MotherBoard: Gigabyte GA-P67X-UD3-B3 Intel P67 DDR3 USB3+SATA3 Raid SLI+ CrossFire LGA1155 PCI-E
This is pretty annoying, but I can live without hardware acceleration.

Yes, this feature is not yet fully baked. I don't know what bugs have been submitted, but I'm sure there are a few at least.

I assume you have the latest drivers for your graphics card, but if not, it would be worth trying an update.

Try to disable "Morphological Filtering" in the Catalyst drivers:
- Catalyst Control Center > 3D Settings > Disable Morphological Filtering
