MSI R9 280x problems

Hello i have just gotten a new MSI R9 280x with building a new pc, when i installed all the drivers part from the GPU ones everything was fine, but when i installed the GPU drivers it started to crash such as "Display has crashed and restored" and sometimes it would just come up with a blue screen saying 0x00000116 error.
Now i was thinking its my GPU drivers so i try to install the newest ones and that does not work, still have the same problem
I also tried installing new motherboard drivers and bio's drivers and still nothing. So i would want to know is my GPU broken or my motherboard because everything for my motherboard has been working fine and as soon as i install GPU drivers i start having problems. I have tried to use the integrated graphics and that was working fine (This was when i took the GPU out my pc) with all the drivers for that working fine
PLease help me because i really dont know what to do
I have a MSI R9 280x
Z97-GD65 GAMING motherboard
i5
Pleas help Robert

  • MSI R9 280X Twin Frozr Editon Problem can anyone shed light on it please?

    Hi everyone i hope i am posting this in the right thread as i currently am in a bind.
    My card has given me a white screen again, this makes it 2 times now this week and i am wondering what my options are here as i have no second card to use and cant be without my PC and be without gaming.
    it happened when i closed down a game and once while alt tabbing a screen.
    After a reset it is back to normal no white screen.
    From what i can see it is not overheating the fans are turning it has been seated well and i have not over clocked it at all with the MSI gaming program and the driver are up to date.
    What would you guys think is going on? do you think it is an RMA for me.
    Thanks in advance for the help everyone.

    Quote from: moblawski on Yesterday at 15:54:05I've had this issue before, but not on  a MSI laptop.
    The solution or problem was, that the memory timings set by the controller, was to low compared to manufactures.

  • Vertical shifting screen after installing MSI R9 280x

    Hello,
    Just bought and installed a (new) MSI R9 280x 3G card, downloaded all drivers etc from website and it runs fine. It runs fine except my screen now and then shifts verticaly.
    Don't know how or why.
    Tried my old card (MSI HD 6580 Cyclone) wich still works fine. Tried different cable, but still the same problem (with new card offcourse). Tried changing hz on my Philips 273EQH, but without succes.
    My system:
    i5 2500k
    AS Rock Z68 Pro
    Cooler Master Silent Pro 600w
    Scyte Mugen 3
    2x4 Ram
    Windows 7
    Please help with some advice.
    Thank you.

    If you do not know how to even check the answer is most likely no. It is an asrock board so check the asrock site for the latest version and see what your bios lists as current version when entering. Otherwise contact asrock

  • MSI R9 280x 3gb GAMES CRASH AND LINES DOWN MY SCREEN

    I have been using the MSI r9 280x for sometime now, possible 7months and all has been good untill the other day; Playing CSGO My screen went to a set of lines running down and and a loop of the last noise I heard was playing over and over.
    Only a hard restart of my PC would solve the issue; this occurred when also playing Wolfenstein: The New Order and Skyrim (tends to be high intensity games).
    I have cleaned out my GPU, all of my fans, have tried to play these games on the older drivers and latest drivers and still the problem occurs.
    It manages to last maybe 5minutes when I have my fans on 100%. I haven't overclocked or underclocked by GPU but still have the issue. I know it can possible be a GPU problem as I tested my GPU with furMark. As soon as I started a 1080p benchmark, my PC froze instantly and lines all down my screen again.
    PC Specs:
    CPU: AMD FX8320 Black Edition 8 Core 3.5
    CPU Cooler: H100i Water Cooler
    GPU: MSI Radeon r9 280x 3gb
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5
    PSU: Modular CX750M ATX Power Supply - Bronze
    RAM: (4x2) 8GB Kingston 1333hz DDR3
    PC Case: Corsair Air 540 (2 basic fans at the front, 120mm corsair at the back)
    PLEASE PLEASE I really need help on this, thank you!

    Thank you for the Advice.
    I ran into a second problem this morning, when on start-up or even loading Google chrome, the same problem occurred with lines all down my screen yet again.
    I am currently using my old GPU (Radeon HD 7770) and I am able to run CSGO; Wolfenstein etc on high intensity without my PC crashing or this problem occurring, leading me to believe that it must be my GPU.
    My r9 280x runs at around 45C when idle, and sometimes that's even when my fans are running at 75-100% speed. Looking online I found that the Average Idle temp should be around 34C; something is wrong here :(
    I'm not sure if there are any other measurements you need me to take to make sure that yes 100% it is my GPU. But looking at it how it is, unfortunately it is.
    Any more ideas, suggestions would be really helpful thank you!

    None of that is a bios version. We need a link to a copy of your vbios saved to file and uploaded to a file hoster to check if there is a newer version. If not allowed to link yet add a break to the link so it is masked being a link.

    Others reported that too when using the same card. If unlocking won't work (>>How to use MSI Afterburner<<) contact MSi about it as there seems to be an issue: >>How to contact MSI.<<

    UEFI is aGOP compliant vbios that allows to use secureboot/fastboot (Windows 8/8.1). If not using UEFI booting it doesn't matter which you use. Older mainboards with UEFI but not being GOP compliant on the other hand won't work with a GOP vbios and only the legacy vbios allows to use the card.

  • MSI R9 280X Gaming 6GB Issue

    I've purchased this card about a month ago from Newegg and it's been great so far.  The only problem that i have is when navigating through windows.  Maybe it's just from using my browser but I've notice the screen to flicker when i'm in the browser scrolling or watching videos.  I have turned off hardware acceleration, used MSI drivers, beta drivers, and the latest drivers but this still happens from time to time.  I don't think the card is an issue itself because i do not notice this when I'm in game.  I believe the R9 280x 6GB that i have comes with the latest vbios already so i am not too sure if MSI currently has anything to remedy this issue.  Apparently this has been an ongoing issue with R9 cards.  So not sure if it is the R9 line of cards itself, the drivers provided by AMD, or the bios installed on the cards.  RMA won't fix this issue as it is a widely known problem throughout all manufacturers of this line of cards.

    Yeah, I got the same issue. Windows 8.1Pro (64bit).  Same card (6GB).
    If I'm on the desktop and I leave a game running in the background and sometimes when using the browser displaying videos and/ or flash video ads, I get what looks like a screen shift.  The picture flickers or jars upward/ downward. It reminds me of something you might have seen on an old CRT monitor when you hit the degauss button, but not quite as bad. It's like some kind of vertical screen refresh or something and looks like someone smacking your monitor from the top while you are using it. The only way I know how to fully re-produce it, at will, is by running my Unigine Valley benchmark in the background and then proceeding to do things on the desktop.  It's definitely not heat related because my GPU temp can be at 33c or lower and still doing it. If I leave my Elder Scrolls Online game running in a background, depending on what's happening in the game, it can do it in this scenario too.

  • MSI R9 280X GAMING 3G bios

    Hello, I've recently bought an MSI R9 280X GAMING 3G video card and so far it works very well without any problems. However, having read some pretty nasty things about it overheating, coil whining, and fans going all wrong, I thought it might be a good idea to update vbios.
    According to GPU-Z my current one is 0.15.040.000.003.003435 (113-C3865000-G77)
    Is there a later version of bios for my GPU? Because MSI Live Update says no. Thanks in advance

    If all is fine there is nothing to do. Either you have problems or not. These issues won't appear suddenly.

    That information is useless. We need your card's S/N and a copy of the current vbios. However as said above if everything works don't bother with updating vbios just to update.

  • MSI R9 280X dimensions question

    Hi,
    I am having a serious problem with my Micro ATX case (Lian-Li PC-V355) trying to "squeeze" a high end card inside it.
    So far I have tried Asus DC2 Top 7970 and MSI Lightning GTX680 without success. Both of these cards were two thick (or too tall for me) with dimensions 129,54 and 129mm respectively.
    I really want to buy the MSI R9 280X but I fear its width will too high for my case...
    Can anyone explain to me how they calculate the width? From which part of the card do MSI start counting?
    Thank you in advance
    Yannis

    Quote from: yannis76 on 04-November-13, 14:26:12
    Is it possible for someone from MSI to tell me the actual width from the PCB to the end of the cooler?
    I am asking this because In my case there is about 20mm free space from PCB and upwards.

  • MSI R9 280X BF4 3GB SWITCH DVI TO HDMI???

    Hi All
    It has been quite a while since I have been in this forum, My old profile seems to have vanished maybe due to lack of login so I have re-registered
    I am still running my trusty old 990FXA-GD80 mobo (see sig) & today I just received an MSI R9 280X BF4 3GB graphics card, I installed it & did not get any signal via the HDMI output so I found a VGA cable & DVI adaptor & connected it to the TV (Sanyo 42" LCDd) via the VGA input & it booted up fine & I was able to install the drivers & AMD catalyst etc software
    I typically run MSI Geforce graphics cards so the AMD Radeon in depth options & menus etc is fairly new to me, Normally I would connect a GTX card & it would simply recognise the HDMI connected monitor or TV & all would be good but for some reason I am unable to get the HDMI output going at all?
    I have both cables - DVI to VGA & HDMI to HDMI connected between the TV & graphics card
    I might just have to buy a DVI to HDMI cable in the morning & see how that goes?
    Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks Nichrome
    Yes it is currently connected to a 42" LCD TV, It may not be easy to get hold of a monitor with HDMI input on loan to test either
    I will be able to connect my brand new LG 60" LED LCD 3D (60LB6500) TV tomorrow & see if the HDMI will work that way? (The new LG only has HDMI inputs as far as I can find but I will know for sure tomorrow?) It may just be the older 42" LCD TV not playing the game, If the new LG 60" does not work via the HDMI output then its onto the other options........>
    The previous Geforce drivers & software was completely removed before the Radeon install but I do agree it may be an issue & a clean install via driver fusion might be needed?
    The current or latest drivers I could find is> 14.501.1003
    I originally installed the latest drivers from the MSI site & could not find the option to connect via HDMI so I went to the AMD site hoping to fix the issue with new AMD drivers
    The audio runs direct to a receiver via SPDIF so for me there is no real need for HDMI output unless it is going to be a better quality option?
    From what I have read the quality or performance should not really be any different between the DVI & HDMI output so it should not be any major trouble to buy a DVI to HDMI cable? Any opinions

  • How to undervolt MSI R9 280x for Linux? VBE has no effect on cards

    Hi!
    Does someone know, how to lower the core voltage for a MSI R9 280x under Linux? I have 2 cards. The old one is a s/n 602- V277 -28SB (great!) and the second one is a s/n 602- V277 -38SB (bad!).
    I tried with VBE on my Windows-machine and set the voltage in the "State 1 - Performance" tab to 1062 for #6 and #0. After flashing the modded bios Vgpu is still at 1200 mV when measured directly on the card with a multi meter. Power consumption at the wall is 270 Watts. However, GPUz shows 1062 mV. Afterwards I set the voltage to -100 in Afterburner. The card now reads 1097 mV and the power consumption dropped to 235 Watt.
    I have no idea why the card ignores the VBE settings. Any advice would be appreciated.

    You are lucky, on my 28SB I can't boot after any change from 1200mV, even with 1193mV
