Topic: Graphical artifacts
Getting a lot of graphical artifacts during game play (funky colored lines randomly shooting off of objects). I've tried adjusting my settings in all sorts of ways and my graphics card drivers are the most recent available. I don't have the best system but it should be enough to run it and it's smooth otherwise. The only issue is the artifacts. Here are my system and card specs. There is also a screenshot linked at the bottom.
