Hello. In the game Zenless Zone Zero, black blinking artifacts appear in static scenes. There are no artifacts in the game itself when there is 3D graphics; they only appear in static 2D story scenes stylized as manga. I did some googling, and it seems this is an old issue that has surfaced on Nintendo Switch emulators like Yuzu on RDNA 3 GPUs. These artifacts are identical to the ones I'm experiencing. However, I don't use an emulator; I'm playing the new popular game Zenless Zone Zero. Is there any hope that AMD will fix this issue? Because in most threads on Reddit, people simply returned the video card to the store.

Here's a screenshot of these artifacts https://imgur.com/bsK0zkd

And here's the video https://streamable.com/s26okb

I want to add that the issue only occurs at 4K resolution and above. And it's not just me; I asked owners of RX 7800 XT on another forum to check, and they have the same issue too.

Is it specific to this scene https://imgur.com/bsK0zkd? or it can be seen in all static scenes?

what is the ingame graphic preset? high or medium?

Maximum graphics settings, screen resolution 2160p. Glitches are not only in this scene, they also occur on gray loading screens. It’s just that in the scene I presented, these glitches are guaranteed to be there and it’s easy to find. I thought it was a problem with my video card, which would be strange since I recently bought it. I asked another person with the same video card to check this scene and he also has these glitches. There are none at 1080p and 1440p, only at 4K and 8K. My video card is Sapphire Radeon RX 7800 XT 16GB NITRO+. If you have the opportunity, check out this scene from Zenless Zone Zero for yourself. I tried all driver versions released this year and tried the driver installed by Windows itself. Also, these glitches exist on both Windows 10 and Windows 11.

I am using 2160p and maximum graphic settings with a 7800XT, but I am not seeing these artifacts on the gray loading screens. Could you attach a screeshot where you see these artifacts on the gray loading screen?

Issues also arose in conversation scenes that used 3D models. It's exactly the same as the screenshot. The glitch occurs with the character shown on the right, especially around the face.

Radeon RX 7900 GRE (24.10.1)

High Graphics settings and 1440p resolution.

Yes, it’s very frustrating. I live in a poor country, and I had to save for several months to buy this graphics card, and now I feel like a fool for purchasing it. This is my second AMD graphics card. The first one was the Radeon HD 3870, and it also had issues; it had bad GDDR4 memory from Samsung, which only showed up in some games. Now I’m wondering if the problems weren’t with the memory, but also with the drivers, just like in the case of the game Zenless Zone Zero.
