MOVED: Overclock my msi r9 290..

Try OC mode.
If you want more:
Set Gaming App to game mode (default clocks).
Run few different benchmarks and record GPU clock it states there, mem clock and temperature.
With Afterburner add +10 to mem clock and re-do the above (benchmarking, temps, clocks). If it dont crash, make note that memclock on +10 didnt crash. Rinse and repeat until crashes on mem clock, for example +93 didnt crash at all within few benchmarks but 94 did.
Then proceed to GPU clock with same technique: small rise, test for crashes, record clocks and temps, repeat until you find crash point, and go slightly lower until it dont crash.
Mind the temps! If your gpu without OC hits 70C, then max 5C will be safe to go. If hits around 60, then even 15 should be ok ! Keep it under high 70s/low 80s under load

Whats your BIOS version?
The Q8400 is supported from 1.3, could be you still have 1.0 and thus the cpu is not fully supported yet.
If so, flash to latest BIOS and see if the resolves the problem.

MSI R9 290 How to switch between Gaming Modes?

Hi, I just got a MSI R9 290... with Afterburner installed. This card has 3 preset modes that are supposed to be easy to switch between OC Mode 1007Mhz, Gaming 974Mhz, Silent 947Mhz... How do I switch between modes? I just tried to up the MHz in Afterburner and must have done something wrong, becuase I froze everything instalntly and had to reboot. Can someone please advise me how to switch between these modes? Do I have the right software installed, Afterburner or is there another suite specificly for this card? I did not install the card, and sorry I am a noob when it comes to OC. . . Noob to gaming in general, but I am getting some pretty bogus 30FPS on a 2012 game, LA Noire, which shouldnt even be demanding for t

You need the Gaming APP for switching (not Afterburner): http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/gamingApp.zip
Afterburner is for manual overclocking (for advanced users) if not using the modes.

Msi r9 290 gaming edition throttling

hello has anyone came accross the msi r9 290 gaming edition gpu throttling when doing benchmarks as when i enable oc mode the score is less than when i benchmarked in silent mode using heaven benchmark

There is a fix, but MSI need to look at this urgently, see full details here

MOVED: M635 Undo MSI cd recovery process

This topic has been moved to Other MSI products.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=97693.0

Hi
You should add disk to /oracle filesystem. It seems there's not enough space to extend datafile.
After adding disk, you can restart recovery with:
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
or
you can move your undotbs2_01.dbf datafile to another filesystem that has enough space, than
alter system set standby_file_management=manual scope=memory;
alter database rename file '/oracle/folder/undotbs2_01.dbf' to '/new_fs/undotbs2_01.dbf';
alter system set standby_file_management=auto scope=memory;
then start recovery.
regards

i would like to check if i assembled everything fine, and it works as it should do. How can i test this video card?
I played Diablo 3 with a friend of mine and compering his fps with the same video settings my pc has lower fps then his pc. And my pc is much better.
Probably Diablo 3 is not the best game for test everything, but maybe is just a signal that means that something is going wrong
thanks for your answer and attention.

You can inrease gpu clockrate in little steps with >>MSI Afterburner<<. If it gets unstable reduce clockrate by a step until it is stable again. GPU will have better performance as long as it is not bottlenecked by the cpu.
i dont get it..with this u mean that i need to increase gpu or cpu clockrate? how should i set afterburner?

Please don't bump your thread: >>Please read and comply with the Forum Rules.<<
We help if we can. In this case looks like it is a reference card with AMD reference vbios and no MSI one. We have no info about those. Contact MSI about it: >>How to contact MSI.<<
Apologies, I didn't mean to bump the thread - I simply edited the URL to make it more legible.

MSI R9 290 Warranty

Hi. I have recently ordered an MSI R9 290 from Ebuyer.com, I have just seen a video online claiming that this card does not have a warranty and I cannot find any information on this topic anywhere.
I just want to know how long the warranty is (if there is one).
Thanks

ok thanks a lot man Il probably post It up tomorrow night ( I was wandering because I have just recently built my first PC and after a couple of days my ASUS DCU2 TOP R9 280X started artifacting so I RMA'd it and ordered a 290 because apparently the issue is occurring with most, if not all 280x) thanks for the help.

MSI z87 G45 + MSI R9 290

Hey all,
New here so please be kind!
I have recently bought a z87 G45 motherboard and a MSI r9 290.
Both of which should activate the MSI VGA boost.
Have downloaded the drivers for the r9 290 off the msi website, all hunky dory!
Downloaded the MSI gaming app, but when i start up i get the "Please update your VGA drivers"
So this wont allow me to connect the App to the graphics card and i cannot change its profile (OC mode, gaming mode, etc..)
Does anyone have any idea's whats going on?
Regards,
Dramz0r

I want to know the same thing. I bought a MSI Z87-G45 Gaming motherboard this month and I can't activate Secure Boot on it because it's still in Setup Mode. I have no idea how to put the motherboard into User Mode and Google doesn't help me much further either. How to activate a key? I have a I5-5670K and GTX 770 by the way.

MSI R9 290 Gaming - My PC keeps freezing, blackscreening and then rebooting?:(

So for christmas i got an r9 290 and a new 750w psu.
Before instaalling them i had never had any problems with restarting. However now that i've installed them my PC keeps restarting? what have i doneeee?
My components are;
coolermaster 750w 80+ bronze psu
ASUS m5a78l usb 3 mobo
AMD fx 6300 cpu
Msi r9 290 gpu
three fans
1 hdd
2 x 4gb ddr3 ram
What is wrong with my PC? it surely cant be power as coolermaster said i only need about 450w!
When I first installed it this morning it was working fine for a few hours then this all happened! I've made sure all the psu connectors are in properly. Just put my old gtx 650 in and that worked fine i've been able to play games?

Quote from: nhornbrook on 28-December-14, 21:34:18
I don't think it's the mobo bios because if it couldn't handle the 290 surely it wouldn't let me play any games at all? And the device is recognised?
Compatibility issues due to an outdated bios can cause all kinds of problems including the one you have. As this is also an old low-end board better check for an update. When does your pc restart? under load or even in idle? If under load what games did you test?
