Glitching Composition

This is a very simple and straightforward composition with simple effects like levels and only keyframes of scale and position. It was doing okay the previous day and then one time I purged all memory & disk cache then this happened. I'm only having problem with this project. What seems to the problem?
PC Specs:
PROC: AMD Ryzen 7800X3D
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti SUPER

MOBO: AORUS ELITE WIFI7

RAM: 64GB (4X8GB CORSAIR DDR5)

Thank you for the replies, I already did everything I read about the gpu driver updates and the renderer settings but it didn't do the job. Right now it went back to okay! I just did my windows update and it seems to do the job. No more glitch/corrupted on the comp preview and renders. I still don't know the main problem of it, maybe something with the cache folders having conflict with the project. Idk, hopefully the problem won't come back

It must be due to some driver-related problem that got resolved with the Windows update. Glad that you were able to fix it.

Feel free to reach out if it happens again.


Thanks,
Nishu

    It could be GPU-related. Try updating your GPU driver to the latest Studio driver from the Nvidia website, and then try clearing the media cache. If that doesn't help, go to After Effects Preferences > Display > and disable "Hardware Accelerate Composition, Layer, and Footage Panels" to see if that brings any change.

    Let us know how it goes. Moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for troubleshooting.


    Thanks,
