So i have a Sapphire r9 280x Toxic i use in my spare rig for mining, got it rolling @ 810 Kh/s @ 77c~

Anyway Thing is i wanted to lower the volt abit and then suddenly i se artifacts on my desktop, so i close all programs, still there then i reboot my PC, they are gone, phew.
everything seems to work but when i start up Cgminer its mining at 40 kh/s instead......i lower the settings to my old settings that gave me 750 kh/s and im still getting 40, another thing thats bothers me is my pc is "lagging" now when and ONLY when im mining, i had no problems before.
No artifacts are showing, temps are ok,  GPU is behaving normally aside from the mining part.
No weird smell either 

Did i damage my GPU?
Did the drivers get corrupted?
Did i damage the PCI-E lane?

I haven´t tested gaming yet, downloading Hitman Absolution right now for testing.

Suggestions??

lower your cgminer settings dramatically like set intensity 10 and decrease concurrency to 8096 see if you start to score closer to your previous result
