From my side, the new driver solved the flickering issues. I’m using Directx 12, and everything is ok now.
I thought mine was resolved as well, but today I was jumping around Stormwind and noticed all the fountains blinking / flickering ridiculously. What a joke.
So has anyone had a good experience with this new Driver?
Still flickering for me 
Hey!
You guys should check your NVIDIA Control Panel for Ambient Occlusion, located in “Manage 3D Settings” switching it to “Off” resolved the issue for me, was on “Performance” before that. Hope this helps some of you. Using the latest Nvidia driver, version 452.06
Good luck 
I have that option turned off, so that’s not the cause of the flickering.
I’ve also had that option turned off since the beginning so that’s not causing the problem
To shed a bit of light here, on why solutions that work for some players don’t do the trick for others: it is very likely that this isn’t actually one unique problem, but rather a number of loosely related conflicts that can possibly occur based on various factors (many of them specific to the particular hardware configuration).
This makes reproduction of the relevant circumstances and thus troubleshooting extremely tricky (it certainly took us a while to even clearly identify where this came from), and is probably the reason why the situation as a whole is still ongoing for some players while it has already been remedied for others through driver updates that have happened since.

Ughh…it’s getting worse the more I play the game.
Now entire sky is flickering when I fly and most of the time my char’s hair is totally black…
Good day everyone. I’ve been experiencing all kinds of flickering textures issues as mentioned in this thread, all ranging from completely blacked out character textures(hair, cloak) to flickering trees. I tried to ignore them thinking its happening because my Nvidia GeForce MX230 2GB RAM is not appropriate for the minimum requirements, still the game runs on low graphics quality at 90 fps or at least 50 fps in heavily animated environments(30 people raid). After the last Nvidia driver update the black textures and flickering objects dissapeared and in their place black flickering squares appeared everytime i move the camera
(https ://imgur.com/a/sufxjeb). Asking help from Blizzard support, the answer i got is that my specs were so low i shouldn’t even be able to open the game(weird answer), so my last resort was to search about the same issue on forums where i found myself on this thread. Sadly Nvidia GeForce Experience app deleted all my previous driver versions after updating to the last one, and now i’m stuck at driver version 452.06. Not even driver manager could find another backup driver version. Does anyone have any idea how can i go back to an older version where the game runned normally? Outside of driver version, i tried every other possible sollution found on this thread like Nvidia control pannel settings, in game settings, game repair, and i really belive that its not the low pc’s specs because when i started playing the game (1 month and so ago) the game runned perfectly normally.

I experience skybox flickering when I travel via taxi. Anyone experiencing the same? Using 1080 Ti, tested with 446.xx and newer.
I’ve started having weapon and armor texture flickering after switching to DX12, so I switched back to DX11.
What DX setting are you running the game on?
Happens with 11 and 12.
It’s getting worse and worse for me really…
Weapons flicker, transmog flickers in transmog window, can’t see what I’m gonna use! D:
Hair flickers on my characters, where even character icon gets pitch-black hair.
Weapon hilts go pitch-black in the transmog and character panel.
Sky sometimes flickers like crazy.
Trees and foliage flickers.
Mounts flicker in mount panel.
Mini pets flicker in mini panel.
I had a lot of flickering, whole screen going black for a moment as if I was blinking constantly.
Switching to directx 11 seems to have fixed it for now…
Anything new with the new driver being out?
Did it fix black flickering for anyone?
Just installed it and Classic is still flickering.
If goes about Retail I think it’s fixed. Had no flickering at all at character select screen so far. Going to play bit longer and will let you know how it looks like later.
Well it fixed MSAA glitching out for me finally 
I have the same issue, but mostly with hats on my character screen, they are blinkin black and normal colour, but in game everything looks fine. It started after fresh reinstallation of whole WoW, i didn’t update my drivers for few months now.
I had really bad flickering in my game, rolling back to a previous driver version fixed it for me.
