Hi,
Im using a radeon 7970 Gpu with windows 8 and the latest amd drivers and whenever I use my gpu for gaming my pc screen will go black and the audio will become frozen. It remains in that state until i hard boot it. I have tried underclocking it and have tried the furmark test. At 85 Celsius it will just crash, i have noticed that my fan only goes to 50 % at that stage so cooling could be the cause. I am using a n 1000w psu so I dont think there are any errors related to power. I just completed installing a new windows 8 onto a new hard disk and before that my Gpu encountered no errors but i do not know how this is OS related.
Thanks for reading
Please Help
