MSI R9 390, constant driver crashing
@ArcaneNinja - Try running the card back in the primary slot again and see what happens. If the issue returns, I'm guessing it could be faulty PCIe lanes on your motherboard. It may work fine with your old card because your old card may not use all the lanes as the 390 does.
I'm running crossfire 290's on water so I've had quite a bit of experience with these hot beasts. They have their quirks and there are some tips/tricks to getting the most out of them, but when you can get their full potential, boy do they ever perform. The biggest issue with them (I've found) is keeping them cool - hence the Kraken G10 and HG10 + 2x H55 AIOs.
I see you're running Sandy Bridge, which is still a strong platform, even today. But if it does turnout to be an issue with your motherboard, at least that gives you an excuse to upgrade to skylake.
