recently and becoming more often my card will stop working. it is being detected by my system and normally works fin and as intended. but sometimes it gives up and i cant run any graphical intesive programs. it was fitted about 2-3 months ago but is a second hand card from a friend and he used it perfectly fine.

Card : AMD Radeon R9 200 SERIES

The GPU is ina PCIe slot, yes. Depends on the type of cooling, if it's a blower fan then you have to use a very small screw driver to remove the top and clean it, if it's a branded one with top-down fans then usually some careful compressed air application will clean it out.
