The flickering only happens on the latest Dolphin verisions, I'm using 5.0-4446 and 5.0 doesn't have the flickering. The problem only happens on Nvidia hardware. I sent my GTX 1080 Ti in for replacement thinking it was the problem, but it wasn't. It's a Dolphin bug with Nvidia! To confirm this I tested with Intel HD 4600 on 5.0-4446 and didn't have any flickering. By the way I tried all backends as well, and they all have the flickering. Here is a video I uploaded showing the flickering https://youtu.be/SNx8k4zAHZE. I also posted this issue on [Unofficial] Widescreen Development Topic + Archive on Dolphin forums. gamemasterplc who is the creator of widescreen codes also said it was a Dolphin bug, here is the link to that confirmation https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-unofficial-widescreen-development-topic-archive?pid=445976#pid445976]
What steps will reproduce the problem?
[Start Mario Kart 64 with 16:9 gecko code enabled and as soon as you reach the main menu on Mario Kart 64 you will see the flickering.]
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on? Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which versions of Dolphin used to work?
[5.0-4446, 5.0]
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
[Intel i7 4790K @ 4.7GHz
Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti
16 GB DDR3 @ 2400MHz
Windows 10 Pro x64]
Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

I downloaded the Bisecttool from GitHub, but it contains no executable.

Gecko Codes are bad and this issue has a little bit of misleading info in it regarding "on NVIDIA" when really the flaw has nothing to do with NVIDIA. adding it to my mega issue.
