I've got a problem since yesterday.Drivers don't not apply as they should :( ( they worked until now) and whatever game I play there's a significant change in FPS,like in Battlefield 3 from 60 fps to 10 fps.I've tried many driver versions even the cd's 14.4 whql and 14.7 RC3.Anybody who will need my system specs here they are:

Intel Core i5 4460
Gigabyte B85-HD3
8gb DDR3 RAM Team Dark
AMD Radeon R9 280 Dual-x (not 280x)
Zalman cnps5x Cooler
Corsair VS650
and some peripherals

Note that i ran dxdiag,ran furmark,reinstalled drivers a LOT of times but nothing.This is my first time posting so please don't take it too hard.Is there any fix for this other than RMA?

Stupid Radeon drivers. There's an art to it.

If you got CCC then uninstall it. For some reason it stops drivers installing - but only sometimes. Use a driver sweeper to uninstall all the old ones.
Then try a clean install and see how you go.

Have you done a virus/malware scan after these problems started? You might have a bitcoin miner using your gpu... Does the card run at high load even when it should be idling, like on desktop? You could use GPU-Z to check the load.
