R9 290 black screen

[ExidCuter]

So basically I've been scouting the internets for the fix to my black screen problem but nothing works for me.

 

I tried underclocking and undervolting. NOPE.

Flashed a new bios. NOPE.

Flashed a bios from another "compatible card". BRICKED CARD.

Flashed 290x bios. NOPE....

 

So to the problem: When I play games like Overwatch, GTA V, Warface I get a black screen and the computer freezes. Sometimes it happens after 30 minutes and sometimes 3 hours. 

 

I never get a black screen when the card is idle.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks!!!

 

P.S.: The PSU is strong enough!

Probably not that much help but have you tried running DDU?

Are you sure it's not overheating? Cause damn, I can't think of anything else. I had a hd7700 that used to die under load too (instantly) and nothing I tried worked. I ended up calling it quits and just retiring it.

Yea that might be the problem.But the GPU can reach 95 C but I have it set to max 85 C and it stays at 85 C. And that is an "ok" temp

Have you tried taking the card apart, cleaning it out and reapplied thermal paste? Keep in mind (however unlikely) that sensors can be off too.
