Hello my friends!
I have a little problem , I'll describe it.
I saw artifacts several times and I brang my videocard to the shop for repair or change , after 3 weeks they said that everything is working fine , they didn;'t see any artifacts. I got Sapphire Radeon R9 280X , it's working just fine , I tested it in games and programs like Furmark , 3D mark , Unigine Heaven , it's working good , good framerate , temperature from 30 to 70 degrees , like it used to be , but sometimes I see artifacts in some demanding games , like Witcher 2 , Crysis 3 (1 time) , GTA IV , I didn't see them in Outlast , for example , so they appear only in stressful games , when videocard is working hard. I already reinstalled Windows and I got last drivers . What can I do , what's the problem, how do you think? Thanks in advance !

My PC :
- Sapphire Radeon R9 280X
- AMD FX-6300
- Asus M5A97 LE R2.0
- 8GB Goodram (1 stick)
- 500 GB HDD
- 700W Chieftec PSU
- Windows 8.1 x64
My PC is working ok in all games , artifacts are showing only in some games (NO overlocking)

Drop your GPU clocks to see if you still get the artifacts. If you do, it's time for an RMA. If you don't then it's up to you on if you RMA or leave the card at lower clocks. What are your temperatures like in the games that artifact?
