Hey there. Iv'e been struggling with my Sapphire r9 290 tri-x oc for a long time, trying to solve that extremely annoying 'blackscreen' issue. When I tried to flash bios for the last time a week ago, I've noticed that...

Pixel Fillrate, texture fillrate and Bandwith values are gone. I smell the dead memory here (seen same once on a 9800GT or so). Can anyone confirm "rip"?

p.s. These screenshots show both flashed and default bios slots.

Did you backup the original BIOS? Try download and flash BIOS for the same card model from TPU BIOS database.
