I implemented the following Order Independent Transparency paper: Memory-Efficient Order-Independent Transparency with Dynamic Fragment Buffer | IEEE Conference Publication | IEEE Xplore
using cuda 9.0 (VS 2017) in a gtx 970 driver version 388.31;
The problem however is that as you can see in the following screenshot, those strange incoherent temporal artifacts will happen no matter what;
(left side is fixed function alpha blend, right side is blend done with the paper algorithm): https://i.imgur.com/hNH8zvA.png

The same algorithm runs fine on a gtx 920m with the same drivers.
For a moment I thought it was due to undefined behavior with unsychronized image load/stores in different shader passes, but even after adding glFinish/glFences and glMemoryBarriers nothing changed;
I can provide the entire Visual studio solution as needed; dl link: https://ufile.io/2trjm
Have anyone faced a similar problem before?
Thank you
