I honestly think the problem is with the memory not getting enough voltage as they should...shame there's no option for us to increase the voltage for memory directly...Stock clocks. Its worst if i OC.

Hi guys,
Just got a MSI R290 and I'm getting these black screen issues.
I have tried latest beta drivers (9.5) and other previous drivers and still no joy....i thought this had been fixed?
Are any of you still getting issues? I only bought the card a couple days ago so I can easily return it if needs be.
Thanks
EDIT: Can run benches fine, just seems to be BF4. Totally STOCK clocks.
my ocd 290 flashed to 290 x by ocuk is black screening in both battlefield 4 and tonight in 3?
Is this a gpu design floor or simply that even though temps dont go above 80 with fan on full chat, it cant handle the overclock?
I can run benchmarks no issues but soon as i play battlefield after so long it black screens.
Stable for bench doesn't mean stable for games. Usually you find the stable overclock in bench such as Heaven, then for games you'd ideally knock around at least 50MHz off the core clock and 100MHz off the memory clock to give more headroom for stability.i am about to uninstall and put those new ones on, im off to stock clocks as i not used them in a game yet as thought like normal if stable when benching it should be stable in games, how wrong i seem to be.
I have set my fan profile to max and will test from there.
Is this a hardware problem i wonder...

I was not talking about 290 hard crash issue...I was responding to your comment on graphic card overclocking of you thought that "if stable when benching it should be stable in games".Dont want to sound argumentative but it always has done for me in the past, there is a lot of people complaining about the 290 series of cards with hard locks etc, whether its driver or hardware related only time will tell.
Apart from overclocking, overvolting, etc etc...
...and on the stock cooler at that...
I did try overclocking on +150mV for 1200MHz when I was still using the stock cooler for quick bench, I was sensible enough to manually turn the fan to 100% and kept the temp below 73C. Wonder if he was running the max voltage with temp hitting close to 90C for long period of time...

There's plenty of examples that overclocking being stable in Heaven or other benches, but not stable in BFBC2, BF3, Crysis back then as well regardless of what card people were using, and fact was that they had to lower the overclock to make them stable in demanding games.
