Good day to all.
I've got a Gigabyte AMD R9 280X and it just artifacts when it hits 60+ degrees.
While playing any demanding games it starts acting up and artifacts, but does not crash Windows it self.
So if anyone knows an issue to this can you please help me out :)
Card is just under 2 years old.
Rig:
i5 3470
Gigabyte R9 280x
8Gb Ram
Enermax PSU 620W( not the greatest but works perfect)

I'm convinced it's the graphics driver. Probably not, but I'll have to then get a new PSU and check

Got it now just under 2 years, Card started doing it for a bit of a time now, but always running games below 60 then the card is fine. So it hasn't done the artifact in a while.
Now i saw that the card is hitting over 60 with the new AMD 17.1.1 driver

A few months ago it did the same going to 60 up and then it artifacts. But it hasn't gone up in a while until now. Lstayed at like 57-58. But now it goes up to 60-64 then it starts artifacting.
