Bought a new card (r9 290) and it was running fine for a month now. After the month strange things started to happen,my pc mostly froze while watching videos. Than after a reset my monitor would switch between hdmi and analog constantly until I turn off my pc (because i could not restart it)...

Unfortunately yes,but why? How come others get to 4.7 and why does prime95 say possible harware problem?

The copture freezes at 4.2ghz at any voltage,prime95 workers stopped and possible hardware problem,occt freezes also.

Thank you very much :)

1.3125V Thats from core temp

Well to be honest I really do,4.5 is my max needed,but Im really scared of doing it because im not an experienced overclocker. I would be greatfull if u directet me to a helping video or something similiar,or even if you can give me a few tips. Thanks in advance

It is constantly at full load,even at idle.

Im sorry I didnt answer for long,I did manage it to get in,but with much more power than the 6pin. Anyhow the card is defective and I returned it back, and im getting a sapphire trixxx r9 290 and was wondering will my psu be enough. This is my system - AMD FX 8120 4.5ghz OC with noctua nh-d14 -...

Its okay now, I needed more strenght to get it in, but it didnt amaze me as i thought it would,40fps in battlefield 3 on ultra,could my 8120 be bottlenecking it?

Just got the gpu but my 8pin connector wont connect,it just slides out. Unlike the 6pin which is connecting perfectly,please help!
