Kraken G10 with H55 on R9 290 is giving Black Screens
Go to solution
Solved by alme55,
i put the stock heatsink back on and that fixed the issued so since the gpu and vrm temps were low when it was happening i am assuming the memory was just getting too hot even with heatsinks installed on them. maybe my cards memory just runs a lot hotter than the average one. In any case hopefully newegg will take back the kraken g10 and the Gelid kit i bought from them. This was a lesson well learned for me, next time i will just buy a card with a custom cooler on it as the only reason i tried the kraken g10 was to reduce the noise the 290's reference cooler made, but i guess i cannot complain having only purchasing it for $160
