Showrbeast posted over on nVidia and official forums the following:
I may have a solution to this issue. Try turning off 'Threaded Optimization' in the driver settings (especially for dual core computers). So far it has helped on my system (Opteron 185/8800GT).
Can somebody please try this and post back the results? I don't want to resub just to find out.

ok so I dropped the ball a bit here. I've been over on the thread on the Ac Forums and not here...
We are trying to insert a program called 3DAnalyze into the launcher of the game to see if we can find a setting that might either solve or eliminate the problem...
we are still working on this...

Preliminary reports show that we might have a very good viable solution in 3DAnalyze.
Fyrie is working on some tweaks to make it easier for the average player to get the program to run, and we are trying to nail down more trial and error in options of what makes it better.
Stay tuned...

There is now a work around for XP. Unfortunately this will not work with Decal.

The chat window workarounds -
1 - raise the main chat window by 3-x lines, this changes the camera view by enough to move the skyboxen up out of visual range.
2 - Maximize the main chat window.
3 - Try putting one of the floating chat windows over the flicker and make it opaque.
4 - tap 2 on the keypad to alter the camera angle.
these do not always eliminate the skyboxen, but they can make it a bit more tolerable.
as always YMMV
