Hi, I have a problem with my Radeon R9 280 x MSI card when gaming. For instance, when I play CSGO, it plays for about 5 mins then it crashes the PC (white/grey screen and audio out(buzzing sound)).

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this problem ? Drivers are 15.2 from catalyst and bios is 0.15.042.000.000
 
Solution
Try a newer driver. The Grey Screen of Death (what you are getting) has been a known issue for the GCN series of GPUs. Try the 15.7.1 drivers and try playing again.

You can also use MSI Afterburner to monitor temps to make sure the GPU is not overheating.
