Hi,

So about 2 weeks ago i had a video card exchanged out for a new one due to this same error. I now have a R9 280x( MSI). When the orginal card was tested it had something like 500k errors logged in its memory. I cant remember which program they used to identify it.

Any way i am now having the same issues with this card, is it possible that its something in my system thats wrecking the cards? or am i just getting unlucky?


***To explain what i mean for the issue i am having its serveral things.

Any time i try and pull up a context menu in my browser(tried serveral broswers) it disappears but will only reveal options i move my mouse over.

Then any time i have a widow over top of another and i move it the edges shadow kinda like how you can get a tail on the mouse pointer(if that makes sense)

Right now it happens regardless of if i am running a game or just sitting on the desktop.

I have dual monitor(one hdmi one dvi)
850x power supply
amd 6core processor


Any info would be much appreciated. Sorry for the bad english as well.

if there's onboard graphics can you try using that and uploading your results?

To do that do i have to remove the video card or can i just simply swap the cables?
