Low benchmark R9 290 ?!

[Neecow]

Hi!

 

I bought recently a R9 290. But I don't know why, It looks like it have some trouble...

 

Here a 3DMark benchmark : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13421313/bench1.JPG

 

This score is it normal for my GPU?! I was looking on Google and most have a better score than this...

 

And in game (BF4 must of time), I have some lag =/

Any help ?

Thanks.

What is your full system specs? There could be a bottleneck but the i5-2500k is still a pretty good CPU

Have you made sure the driver is up to date? The driver you're using isn't approved apparently.

What size is your psu can it handle it?

Hey!

 

First thanks for your reply!

 

Indeed the problem cames from my Driver... What a noob I was here... I had the lastest but in Beta (that's why it says not approuved), didn't see the no beta version was up to! So I installed it, and indeed, the score is pretty better ! https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13421313/bench2.JPG
