Hello,
First of all, here are my PC specs:
- i5 4690k cpu
- Gigabyte GA-Z97X Gaming 5 mobo
- 16gb (2x8gb) crucial ballistix sport ram
- XFX R9 280 gpu
- Corsair HX850 modular psu
I am having an issue with my machine rebooting. Prior to installation of my first R9 280, I could run games without issue. When I installed my 280, I was getting some vertical lines of contrasting color, followed by looping sound crashes. I was then forced to reboot as the video driver failed. This could also be triggered by running gpu stress tests. I removed the 280, and reinstalled my two 5770s in crossfire, and had no issues. I RMAd the 280, and it recently arrived. After installing it, I ran the FurMark gpu stress test at max load for 1.5 hours without issue (max temp was 69C). I tried running CS:GO earlier, and within 10 minutes, the cpu rebooted twice. There were no signs of overheating, and no other visible symptoms. I have the most up-to-date drivers installed, and I have tried reverting to older drivers, to no avail. I am literally at a loss for ideas. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Edit: I should note, I have ran all of the Prime95 tests for numerous hours, with no instability issues. I also just ran WhoCrashed, and after analysis, it did not recognize any recent crashes.
