Hello all,
As the title suggests, my new build crashes when playing hardware intensive games. I started off with an Asus AMD Radeon R9 270X and every game I had ran smoothly.
I then upgraded to a 280x model which was when problems began. I could play games like Rome Total War (1) perfectly fine, but after 10-30 minutes the display drivers would crash, the sound would continue for 2 seconds then block onto a loop. The computer would then be unresponsive. The computer would not bluescreen, but the monitor acts as if there was no imput.
I ran driver sweeper to remove the previous drivers, after looking at another thread on here, to no avail.
I downloaded MSI Afterburner, only to monitor temps and control fan speeds, and the temp of the GPU, under load, typically never goes over 75 degrees C.
Today I downloaded and installed 'AMD Chipset Driver V8.0.877.0' from the Asus website, the problem still persists but now the sound completely stops at the same time as the display.
I'm at my wits end now, so if anyone could help me out, that'll be grand.
Many thanks in advance.
