I bought an R9 280X GPU and after a few days the PC constantly shuts down. Now the monitors wont turn on and I think there something wrong with the card. Help! I think i eiter overheated the card or somethings dead.

I have a 600W Coolermaster

That sounds like your power supply. Did you try it with a different video card?

I would look at a BIOS update for your MB... you could have jumped from PCIe 2.0 to PCIe 3.0 and need an update to address any issues. Your PSU is not the greatest, but still is plenty of power to run that 280x...
