RX 480 crashes and 10k% power usage?

[Call of What?]

So i have some issues with my xfx rx480 and i need someone to tell me what the heck is going on. 

So first of all since i bought my gpu i can hear a static noise in my headphones when the gpu is under load and nothing fixes it. And it is most likely also not a power socket issue. 

I learned to live with that static but now that my pc sometimes gives me a blackscreen when im playing games. Blackscreen, but i can still hear the ingame music and when i hit my pc's power button it does not turn off so i have to manually unplug the psu when crashing. And then i noticed something in msi afterburner, something quite frightning. Have a look at the picture:

 

ITS SKY HIGH?!? 

Also when i then for instance scroll a webpage the % goes up by  about 3000. And when playing game it hangs around 100k%. The static noise in my headset is also louder when playing games and i can hear a soft brrrrt noise when scrolling a webpage. 

 

I tried alot of stuff. I installed the latest drivers i tried diffrent powercables and tried plugging it into diffrent sockets. 

 

I know this post is kinda all over the place but forgive me, english is not my first language 

 

**EDIT**: I can also somehow not control my Voltage and memory clock and such in msi afterburner anymore.

 

**EDIT 2** I forgot maybe the most important thing, Ill add a picture of an error Radeon settings gave me about Radeonwattman.

Your using Intel Graphics mate

the black screen with everything still working has been happening to me recently as well on my 480.  I think its probably a driver issue.  I havnt tried rolling back to see if that fixes it.

@Loot @Being Delirious OK i fixed that now, i just selected the rx480 again in msi afterburner but that does not change all of the other problems

About 5 months old. Had the static issue since purchase tho

[Loot]

in afterburner to you have a reset button? (to reset gpu to default settings) looks like maybe a bad auto overclock ?

I think you mean send the GPU back? Well im a little late for that now. I did not want to do it in the beginning because i just got my gpu back. This one was given to me for free because my r9 290 broke down under warranty, but it took them 3 months to reply to me with this rx480 offer so i could not play videogames for 3 long months and i did not want that again...

If it took them three months I'd have saved up and took my business else where, that's bad customer service is that.
