I have a Sapphire Tri-X 290 and was having the same problem.
I loaded up Afterburner and noticed that the memory clock was jumping between 1300mhz and whatever the idle clock is.

Turns out it was Windows 7 Aero causing the memory clock to jump around so I turned Aero off and I have had a black screen since.

Just to confirm have you put a 6 AND an 8 pin power supply in to it? What power pack (PSU) are you using? My Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X is fine and have been running like a dream for several days. Also you may as well list rest of your rig.

RAM: Corsair 16GB 1600MHz CL10 DDR3 Vengeance

Case: Cooler Master HAF X
Sound Card: Asus Xonar D1

Wasn't an answer in my situation - my monitors don't have HDMI ports. However, I solved the problem. I bought a new card, and am using the '13.11 Beta 9.5' drivers, no black screens anymore
