RTX 5090 weird shadow glitches in benchmark

Can anyone with a 5080 or 5090 confirm that there are weird shadow glitches in the benchmark run? You can mostly see them in the left side of the track such as car shadows blinking in and out of existence. Thanks in advance!

Video of the glitches here:

That’s a GPU fault and not a game fault.

Setting Dynamic render quality to High instead of Ultra seems to have resolved the issue. Hopefully Ultra settings are patched for 5000 series cards in a future update.

And there i learned something new.
But it’s still a very weird bug for sure.

Getting this as well with my RTX 5080, so it must be affecting 50 series cards. Setting Dynamic render quality to High doesn’t fix it for me either. Very annoying bug.

It’s offtopic but man you guys with 50xx cards really made a bad deal so far.
I hope for you Nvidia gets that under control

Thanks I already thought I am alone with this problem.

That shadow bug is all over the game, not just in the benchmark, it only happens at night.

I also made a video.

Same here on 5070 ti on ultra settings and it’s not related to DLSS (tried on / off). Maybe shadow quality issue.

I can confirm I have the exact same glitches with my 5080. It happens during night races: shadows all over the place :confused:

Yeah, I’m also having this issue on a RTX 5080. Tried changing DLSS, shadow and RTGI settings but nothing seemed to help.

Please fix the problem. I updated driver to 572.83 and it didn’t help. It seems only the new RTX 50xx series is affected, this is so annoying.

Same issue here as well with almost all shadows at night with 9950x3D+5080. Hopefully either a game or driver update fixes this soon. Very disappointing.

5070 TI, same problem.

Content Update: Was this happening prior to the most recent content update or did it start after the update? Since I’ve updated my GPU

Have you tested rolling back the GPU driver to see if this clears the flickering?

Hi, this seems to be an nvidia 50 series issue, there’s another post about it here if you want to upvote it!

The graphics card is a 5090D, not sure if it’s the graphics card that’s broken or if it’s a problem with the game.

The 4090 graphics card doesn’t have this issue.
