Been using Heaven 4 as a stability test for some time, but when installing my two new Powercolor PCS+ R9 290, it seems to frequently crash in Heaven 4, and usually at the exact same point - when flying between the bronze houses.
At first I though it might be one of the cards, but have tested both individually, and happens on both. Ok, so maybe both cards are bad, but I'm thinking that is less likely. Or at least I hope so.
Have tested on 13.12 and 14.2 drivers. Only difference seems to be that 14.2 when it has a problem recovers better.
Usually happens within a few minutes, but up until just a short while ago I had only been testing Eyefinity in 5760x1080.
Just did a run at 1080p, and ran for while without crashing/hanging/causing display driver to stop responding.
Just wanting to get feedback from people with similar setups to be sure it is my system, and not something to do with Heaven itself. If it happens for others, I will feel a bit better about things.
For now, going to leave it doing a 1080p run again for a bit, and hopefully will come back to the good news that I'm not the only one
Edit:
Everything is at stock - CPU, Memory, GPU (which have factory OC though)
Did try downclocking a bit, but still seemed to have issue - though will try this more later.
