use the amd OC tool or another OC tool and pull the memory frequency down 200mhz or so. see if that helps... ive seen a lot of recent amd cards have issues with their ram speeds... not quite sure yet why. if they go away, rma your card, if they don't, continue troubleshooting.

I've had that error message before and I fixed it using Display Driver Uninstaller after booting up into Safe Mode, and completely wiping the display drivers out, then reinstalling the latest stable version (not the beta) which would be 14.4 right now. It fixed my problem haven't had an issue since. Be sure to create a system restore point before using the driver uninstall tool, in case something goes wrong.
