Bought a new card (r9 290) and it was running fine for a month now. After the month strange things started to happen,my pc mostly froze while watching videos. Than after a reset my monitor would switch between hdmi and analog constantly until I turn off my pc (because i could not restart it). Than it would boot up,it happened few times until yesterday when it stopped forever. Now i thought at first it was my mobo took the battery out and parts one by one waiting for that beep when it boots up but nothing,no beep no picture. After everything done I connected my old gpu (radeon 6950) and it works now. So whats happening? Is it my gpu that is bad or smthing else that is making my gpu bad?

My specs are:

Fx 8120 3.1ghz
Sapphire radeon tri x r9 290
Wd 250gb hdd
Corsair tx 750w
Asrock 990fx extreme3
8gigs of gskill ripjaws 1333mhz
