So, i was wondering why my fps was so low when playing games. Opened up MSI afterbuner and CPU ID and here are my results:

GPU1 Usage: 24% ( goes up and down from 24 to 0)

GPU2 usage 0%

GPU 2 VID usage 0 %

GPU fan speed 46 %

GPU1 Core clock 312 mhz

GPU 1 memory clock 1350

and CPU ID only shows one reading now and its TMPIN0 : 42C

What the heck is going on? Did some setting get reset?

SPECS:
i5-3570k
PowerColor R9 290
Corsair 8gb ram
CX750M
HAF 932 advanced

No its a single 290. Still not sure why on CPU ID it only shows one reading for the GPU. Before it showed a bunch. Also, GPU2 does get spikes to 100% for one or two seconds then drops back to zero.

It seems others seem to be having trouble with the 290's. Did a setting get switched on by accident? I have touched any overclocking or fans speeds or anything for that matter.

Anyone? Did i burn out a "core" on my GPU? I dont think i did cause i think it wouldnt work at all. I read about some setting when you GPU gets hot it goes and down clocks everything. Did it do that?
