Hi,
I'm having trouble getting my r9 290 to work with my setup.,
the problem I am having is at seemingly random times my Pc will freeze up sometimes with sound glitch, black out and then reboot., it will do this whether I am playing a game or just sitting idle on my desktop., this happens somewhere between 5 min. to an hour after start up.,
nothing I do seems to remedy the situation.,
I have checked my ram, I have made sure to uninstall all of the old drivers before installing the new ones and so much more I contacted Sapphire And they said I must have a faulty card but even after I got my new card its the same I replaced my PSU no fix. I've scoured the forums for fixes to no avail Its been about a month now of working on it and i'm at my whits end i feel like i'm just doing the same things over and over again., Sapphire says to RMA this card too but what if my third card does the same thing ?
My system is rock solid with my AMD 6450 installed even with the 14.4 drivers so whats the deal.,
could it be my mother board? (PC specs below) is that even possible? I don't mind replacing it but I'm not made of money I blew a large amount on the GPU and then had to buy a new PSU too, So i'd like to be sure..,
Please give me guidance~

and there is is this new thing were the screen will go black and come back or it will just lose connection out of nowhere but the PC is still on in the case. lights still flashing and whatnot. Its not the power settings like sleep mode or anything I turned that off before I finished updating windows that seems to me like it would be the GPU though not the MB what do you think? maybe its a combo of both..
