Hi, i have a seriously annoying and frustrating issue with my computer. It restarts randomly for unknown reasons. I'm running windows 7 ultimate 64bit with a intel i5 2500k oc to 4.5ghz with 16gb of corsair vengeance 1600mhz ram, xfx 850w psu, kingston v300 ssd, AMD R9 290 and a asus P8Z68V PRO/GEN3 motherboard. I also have a custom water cooling loop with a pump and fan controller.

I have tested my PSU with OCCT PSU test, i have removed the OC from my CPU. This issue seems to come in different periods or are just random. The thing is that it reboots more often when i haven't used my computer in a while, so usually within the first 30-60 min i get about 2-5 reboots and sometimes 0. And after about 2 hours i get 0 reboots (sometimes it reboots). Some days it doesn't reboot at all and sometimes it just turns it's self of. I found that someone had a similar issue (http://) and it seems like it's the R9 290 that's causing the issue. If you take a look in my profile you'll see that i have had some serious issues with my 290. (FPS drops, BSOD and such) but now my reboots has no BSOD. It'd be great to get an answer to my issues because my computer just get's on my nerves and i really hate dealing with it. It even reboots before i have enven signed into windows. During the login screen.

A response is much appreciated.
