Hello people,
So here is the situation. I am a proud owner of an Asus DC2OC R9 290. And recently I bought another one, second-hand, from a local "ebay" and soon I discovered that the card goes insanely hot insanely fast.
To note, I didnt OC at all so both cards run as they are.
One card stays nice and cool at max 70-75 after long stress test, while the other in the first minute rushes up to 80-90 C. I didn't wan't to accuse the guy for selling me crap from the start so thats why im asking you guys.
So is it a hardware fault?
Thanks in advance
P.S: I tried driver sweep, reinstall and bios update, uber and silent modes and it is still happening.
