Ok guys, so mine R9 280X started giving me bad performance on 3dmark, on fire strike only scored 6600-6800 when it should be7300 (cause its my second r9, 1 one went to RMA, and it did 7300, had artifacts tho)
I thought it was another problem with the gpu again cause this one its also giving artifacts (im switching for a gtx 770 this time), but i tried a saphire AMD 7950 3GB and its only giving me 5800 on fire strike and 5100 on 3dmark11?? Shouldnt it be higher than 8000 or even 9000 on 3dmark11? My other components are just fine, ran memtest86 it went well, ssd everything cool so whats happening? can it be virus? drivers?
Should i wait until i have the gtx 770 to formatt my computer?
Thanks :)
 
update your drivers.... dont oc your gpu ... check if you have sufficient psu because i think your psu is the culprit for not delivering enough power.. 2 cards of r9 280x means you need to have 750w to 800w atleast to be on the safer side
go check
