Hello,

I'm having problems with my r9 290 gaming by msi. The card keeps switching itself off and also shutting down my whole pc. Along with these, today it doesnt want to spin its fan so I cant play any games or even watch youtube videos at 1440p. I have a 750w psu by corsair and have taken the side off my case for extra air flow. My case is the aerocool x-warrior midi-tower case. Any help would be welcome.

Thanks

I would try a different psu if can otherwise RMA the gpu. Try updating or full reinstall of the drivers first just in case.

Spoiler

Is it just me or is Grammar slowly becoming extinct on LTT?

Swited over to second pci-e connecter and its working for now. Might go for a psu with more watts

Meh, a good 600w PSU can handle R9-290.
