I don't mean to laugh but  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol: your title made me laugh and then how you expressed your issue and your avatar just made me laugh.

 

Are you sure you have your PCIe set to gen 3?

An i7 980X doesn't have PCI-E gen 3

Yeah....i meant x16 meaning is the PCIe slot the correct one

 

still does not explain why an overclocked r9 290 gets only 1800max vs my old gtx 770 got 2300 same settings

I assume that you have all the correct drivers for your new GPU right?

I can't look at your avatar because it makes me laugh too much as you that face look like if that person is really saying it....and please don't tell me it is because then i won't be able to respond to this topic for fear of dying of laughter.

 

Maybe something is wrong with the GPU but even that would be strange.....what GPU is this.....XFX, MSI, ASUS what? Can you give a model number?

SAPPHIRE R9 290 reference 

you sure it didn't throttle due to heat. I know there was a problem in the early stages regarding the BIOS that cause unnecessary throttling and there were new BIOS put up for people to flash there 290 to solve the problem and the reports were that it did fix the problem. You may want to contact Sapphire.

i just checked valley 100% no drops

Don't just do a BIOS update right away, contact sapphire first to see if it isn't just maybe a bad GPU or if they put out a BIOS....i know for a fact that Gigabyte had put out many revisions to fix the issues of the throttling as i worked on a 290 for a customer late last year.
