I have this card for a month now and its a reference ASUS R9 290X. Before I watercool this card I want to be sure its actually stable. I seem to get a totally random BSOD with code 0x1000007E usually when watching youtube videos with the HTML5 or the flash player. As this rig is quite unbalanced until I get my new motherboard. I am not sure what is causing this BSOD. The card performs good under load but seems to have some severe clock drops while benching. Clock goes as low as 400mhz and goes back up to 1000mhz instantly which causes a stutter. I am not sure if this is the fault of the GPU not sure how I can confirm tho.

CPU: Intel Core i7 2600
MB: Gigabyte GA-PH67-UD3-B3
RAM: Kingston HyperX Predator 8x2GB
GPU: ASUS R9 290X
Ram and GPU are a league above Mobo and CPU I know the 2400Mhz ram isn't supported but it looks like it downclocks fine. This is actually all for a new build but I've been testing the parts on my old Mobo and CPU.

If it's a reference card it's most likely from heat. If not, it could be something else like bad power or something, whats your power supply?Its a brand new RM850 I am pretty sure I have more then enough power on it but don't have a multimeter to check the PSU. The temps never went above 83c while in Heaven isn't that way below the throttling point?
That PSU Should be more than enough, what are your full system specs?
