wow that's some nice troubleshooting. first of all are you on the latest amd drivers for the r9 290. what storage are you using when hdd go bad they usually freeze and have problem before giving up. 

No, i dont have last driver for my gpu, beause i the same happend to the newst driver, so i downgraded agian. I have 500gb ssd only, and sometimes my ssd goes from 1-3% to 30% but goes down agian 1 sec later?

This is what someone said on a reddit thread...

"Some versions of Afterburner have conflicts with certain versions of CCC (catalyst control center). I had this happen numerous times on my radeon. You can try to completely uninstall afterburner, radeon drivers, ccc (preferably using DDU)

Then installing a different version of CCC, afterwards reinstall afterburner. If you do not have a radeon card then this still applies but I have not seen this issue on nvidia cards."

Something is conflicting with Afterburner....

Some kind of update was applied and that messed it up. Just forget about it, after all, MSI Afterburner isn't the best software to use with AMD GPUs IMO...

This is a software conflict. AMD's Catalyst Control Center/ Wattman (idk how they call it) is conflicting with MSI Afterburner. This causes a system freeze.
