Hey guys, today I finished my build, test boots were all fine, no issues installing os, the only issue I have is my monitor will loose the hdmi connection within an hour after boot. I have tried to unplug the card (both its power and it) have looked around the forums and internet in general and I am at a loss as to what I should do next. build is
Motherboard: MSI Z87-G41 PC MATE
CPU: i5 4670k
psu: corsair builder series cx 600w
gpu: Gigabyte r9 270x
ram: kingston hyper x blu 2x4gb
Hdd: WD Blue 1tb 3.5 inch
Case: Rosewill challenger

Thanks for your time!

Edit:
I think I found part of the problem, but it still doesn't make much sense to me. I had an xbox 360 plug&play and an xbox 360 wireless receiver plugged into the rear usb ports (along with a wifi dongle, mouse and keyboard) when I removed these two it worked for a good 2 hours before I decided to shut it down for the night.

Try a different cable.

Try a different monitor.

Try the monitor and cable on a different pc

What's your AMD catalyst version? I have very few issues with Catalyst 14.4 Beta right now aside from drivers crashing when I load a video while playing a game.
Have you tried another cable?
Different PCI Express slot if there's more than one?
Tried a different connection? DVI or other?

I'd give a go in Safe Mode on start up as well. If it doesn't happen at all in Safe Mode, it's not a default setting.
As far as another power supply even?

Also Heya Hex :p
