Second GPU jumping 100% to 0% each second

Lord Athetos · August 1, 2018

So I have a r9 fury crossfire, and today I recieved a new cpu for my system. I installed it and it worked just fine, I made a benchmark and it scored what it should, and I then played gta v. It worked perfect a couple hours, and then the displays started to go mad. First they turned all black, and then the monitors on the right and the left worked fine, but the central one strated alternating between black and a very wierd flickering. I rebooted my pc and it took longer than normal. Then the desktop was lagging, I opened up task manager and when I clicked on performance task manager just won't respond and crashed. A few attempts later, task manager showed this the second GPU jumping each second from 0% to 100%. Anyone knows what happens? Any help appreciatet

Try switching the GPU's.

I used to have this exact problem with my CF R9 290s and coincidentally I discovered it in GTA V too, turned out that one of them was a dead card. Try some stress tests with each of them installed individually

I think I fixed it, but I have another problem now. I reinstalled the drivers and the second GPU stopped freaking out, but now only my left display works, I'll make another post about that. Thanks for the help!
