Can anyone help with an AMD GPU problem

[Girugamesh]

I bought my R9 290 (not x) about a month ago, during this time I thought I had solved the problem but it turns out the game I was playing at the time wasn't that intensive and didn't cause any problems.

 

So here's my problem, every time I run a graphically intensive game, my computer black screens, almost like it's completely disconnected from the monitor, and can only be resolved by hard reset. This problem occurs every 3-4 minutes when playing games like Fear 3 (Wanted to play coop with a friend, as you can imagine we didn't get very far).

 

I'm on the verge of sending it back, and want to know whether anyone has a solution they may have found that worked....cause non of my solutions did.

 

My Specs:

OS: Windows 7 64 bit

Motherboard: MSI Mpower S1150

PSU: Artic red 750 watt 

CPU: Intel I7 4790k

GPU: MSI twin frozr r9 290 

 

Edit: I already experimented with drivers, none of them worked, also my first solution was to go in afterburner to increase both the core and power limit, I thought it worked....but it didn't.

Update drivers.

Increase the power limit and core voltage, then run a GPU stress test.

Same thing happend to me with 270x what I did was clean installation of windows, new drivers and then it works.

There are other factors too see if there is any update for your windows is pending if it is first update that (don't worry if it give a video card driver update, just update it) after updating, check temperatures.

And lastly it happens because of poor quality of power supply.
