I recently got a 7950 and I noticed some weird graphical errors.

Any idea what it could be caused by? Looks like a texture and/or shader error. It also disappears if I alt tab and return to the game apparently.

Edit: More shading errors

    Alt tab graphical glitches are usually unfixable; there was an area in L4D that I recall was pink or something after alt-tabbing, and fixed when you alt-tabbed back. It has something to do with redrawing the game (especially a problem with source engine, never run HL2 or HL2 mods in anything but windowed mode).

    I've never looked for it, but it looks reproducible on other cards?

    It wasn't a problem with my GTX 580. If it were a problem I would never have noticed it with my 7950 but it's pretty distinct to me.
