As the title says, I just received my new R9 280x today, and I haven't been able to use it in any games. While at the desktop, MSI Afterburner reads 99% GPU Usage, with rare dips lower than that. I tried running Arma 3 on the lowest settings I could and the usage dropped very slightly but framerates were consistently under 15 FPS. Full specs are:
Asus M5A97 MoBo
AMD FX 8120 @ 4.4Ghz
8Gb DDR3 @2133Mhz
WD Blue 1 TB
Kingwin 850mm PSU, 850w
I am really stumped by this, I am running malwarebytes and MS Security Essentials now to see if it could be some sort of bitcoin mining thing. Please help, I just blew a lot of money on this card and I would not like to see it flop.
