Strange shadow artifact. Anyone else seen this?

Hi guys. I just started getting this shadow artifact that happens when spot lights or directional lights intersect each other after I upgraded to a 1070. At first I assumed the worst; faulty graphics card? But I've played numerous other games with no issues whatsoever so I'm curious as to if this is just some weird incompatibility issue with Unity 5.

Can anyone else with an Nvidia 1000 series card test this issue and let me know if I should be alarmed? Thanks!!!

 

Try to increase the near clipping plane of the camera. It looks to me like the same exact deferred precision issue I had a while ago

Hmm... it wasn't an issue with shadow or lighting settings for sure. It seems it just... went away when I made a new scene. I think it may have had something to do with a corrupted scene.

 

If it IS the issue I mentioned above, it may come and go away. It may only be noticeable at certain camera angles or distances. The shadow pattern shown is the same issue I had, but at certain camera angles/distances the issue seemed to go away only to come back.
