    R9 290 dieing? video inside

    Anyone? It seems to be somewhat of temperature related, i tried fiddling with fan profiles, under/overclocking/drivers etc. Even put a support to the card so it doesnt "hang" No matter what, when the temperature climbs to the 90c range, it fails. 900/1200 clocks - 91c gone 947/1250 - 92c gone...

    R9 290 dieing? video inside

    Shuts down, but all lights stay on (keyboard/mouse/power button) Edit: actually it doesnt even shutdown, only black screen & gpu fan stops "screaming" More edit: GPU-Z 12v isnt accurate, most of people it shows 11.75v & 11.63v under load for 290's (quickly googled it)

    https://vid.me/bmM0 so basically, stock clocks/speed XFX R9 290 Core edition (reference cooler) does this when on heavy load, test can be replicated for the same results. The temperatures look normal to me, for an stock cooler 290 atleast Core 92c Vrm1 67c Vrm2 74c Card around 2 years old...

    Looking for a mouse upgrade, what would you suggest?

    Yeah, ive read that, also that it has the best laser/optics available etc... but the weight concerns me, since the rat7 feels kind of heavy sometimes (if i have to do tiny adjustments to aim etc)

    What mobo would be the most ideal for upgrade.

    I'd say an MSI Z97 Gaming 7/9, would look awesome paired with that MSI Gpu. ;) Or if you want to go ALL-OUT then something like Maximus VII Formula (one of the best, if not the best LGA 1150 Motherboard available)
