Running 2x Sapphire Dual-X R9 280 3G.

I see both cards in my devices and am able to enabled crossfire.

I am running AMD's latest patch (16.1)

When I disabled crossfire I am able to run everything fine. Only issues occur when I enable crossfire. I was able to run 3dmark and had an improved score, but all other games crash when I attempt to launch them.

I have tried a variety of possible answers:

  • Cleaning out drivers and reinstalling with both cards connected
    Using one display
    Updating BIOS on both cards (identical) to latest version
    Disabling ULPS with regedit

I'm running Windows 10.
My PSU has 1k watts/gold standard

Any idea on what could cause the issue?
