In Far Cry 4 when I'm running around in the bright sunshine (like always in this same spot going up a hill of grass and trees) the screen kinda flashes bright with a spread line cheese cloth kinda look. Is that normal? Or, what is it?
My computer is a X99 with GTX 980, set to optimized mode by GeForce Experience.
Is it my monitor, my video card, or just the game?
I have had a similar problem, green flashes. It looks like a frame didn't fully process on the video card and I got a green flash for that frame instead. I 'think' it means your game settings are right on the borderline of being too high. You might experiment with backing different items off one step to see if one of the settings eliminates the problem. This was the case for me and I am using the GeForce Experience settings also. Fairly certain this might be the case.
Best of luck,

Doesn't seem to happen on a R9 290X, and yes, the framebuffer (Unless Ubisoft has done something very, very, very wrong.) is completely GPU side.
It might be caused by the drivers, too. (GTX980 is quite new so they probably haven't gotten around to fix all the issues yet. Some problems like this tend to exist for quite some time after the new series' releases.)
I ran an SLI machine once and decided never again. Sometimes it can be a royal pain keeping two sets of drivers up to date on two video cards. Plus, hoping the SLI driver is working for that particular game. I had a heck of a time with it on FC2. Just decided to save my money and jump a couple generations with a single video card. I am running a GTX 770, but it is a bit unusual in that it has 4GB of video ram. I do a lot of gaming plus video capture and editing so it worked out well for me. But, it is running FC4 with the GeForce Experience optimization but for that card most settings are in the high range, with specific Nvidia functions, not ultra.
