I got a sapphire dual x r9 270x from ebay cheap(~$70) and it has artifacts in torchlight 2 and marvel heroes 2015 when set a default clock speeds of 1070hz. Also get lots of errors in OCCT when at stock speeds.

I can alleviate these by reducing the clock speed to ~950hz, but was trying to figure out what else I could do to address these issues and get it to run at factory clocked OC.

Unfortunately I cannot RMA it because I bought it used, so I am trying whatever I can do otherwise.

Try setting the clocks to reference level. Also, check the temps when gaming. Maybe it is too high.

I only see artifacts when over clocking or over volting.

I get the artifacts when I run it on the defaults clock settings, I only get rid of them when I underclock through CCC. Need to check the temps but I am pretty sure they do not exceed 75C.
