Having this odd problem currently.
I have two powercolor PCS+ 290's, and decided to put off building a custom loop for a while, but wanted to noise down a bit, so figured I'd get a G10 and a Corsair H110.
Now, card A used to be on top, as it ran a bit cooler than card B. So I figured it would be better slapping the G10 on card B, and move it to the top.
Temps are absolutely fine, both on GPU and on VRM's (probably due to the PCS+ having sinks installed on the VRM's).
The problem: if I adjust voltage up or push the clocks up, and not even very much, I start getting black screens. This is only with Card B on top. If I swap them around, I don't have issues. But having the G10 on the bottom is pointless.
Out of curiosity, I put the stock cooler back on card B, and put it on top, and it was fine. I could up volts and clocks.
Put the G10 back on and back to black screens when ever I try upping anything.
Temps are absolutely fine. Though of course, I have no way of measuring temps on RAM, but I even tried clocking that down with no luck, and struggle to think that would be the cause.
Part of me is thinking (and I know how bizarre this will be) that it doesn't like not having a fan attached to the card. I will find a way to test this theory shortly.
I don't want to remove the cooler from card A and stick the G10 on that just yet. Leaving that test as last resort as don't like removing things unnecessarily...
But anyone got any ideas? Or better yet, experience of this kind of setup?
