MSI radeon R9 290X gaming artefacts

Hello,
 I've bought an Radeon MSI R9 290X twin frozr gaming
Artefacts (little squares) when video memory reach 1900 or 2000Mb in game then game freeze
Artefacts comes when video memory reach 2500 Mb when opening a lot of google chrome windows or IE for example.
GPU stress test pass OK, leo demo from amd for example.
games like tomb raider work ok (not use a lot of video memory)
PC memory verified with memtest booted on usb stick, no error.
config:
Power supply corsair AX850
Main board MSI Z87 G45 gaming bios V1.9
core i7 4770
16Gb RAM DDR3 gskill 800MHz
Windows 8.1 64 bits
I don't know if it is a hardware issue, bios or driver issue
Here the S/N of graphic card
S/N: 602-V308-01SB1402009172
bios here :

Thank you for help

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.
I use 4 * 4 GB memory (G.Skill XL Series RipJaws X Series 8 Go (kit 2x 4 Go)   DDR3-SDRAM PC3-12800 - F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL)
timings are set to auto in the moterboard bios.
I also formated hard disk and install VGA drivers.
So, i've just tried unigine valley, its work fine, Video memory isn't higher than 1400 Mb.
I've open several google chrome  in order to use more video memory and artefacts comes again...
I will investigate in motherboard ram timings

  • MSI Radeon R9 270X GAMING 4GB and GOP UEFI vBios Flash?

    I'm thinking about getting a MSI Radeon R9 270X GAMING 4GB for my HTPC since it's kind of shorter and was wondering if MSI provides a GOP UEFI flash for it or if it's capable of doing so?
    Thank you.

    the card has 2 VBIOS's and some have one that is Legacy and another that is GOP already (others have a Legacy and a LN2) so its a 50/50 if it has it out the box!
    if it doesn't there will probably be one available as the Rx - 2xx have been around a while now!

  • VGA BIOS for MSI RADEON R9 270 GAMING

    Can someone please post me a BIOS for VGA BIOS for MSI RADEON R9 270 GAMING?
    I flashed mine with the wrong BIOS and realised to late that the BIOS backup did not actually work. This is the 270 and not the 270x. Any help would be appreciated.

    There seems to be none so far: >>How to contact MSI.<<
    I removed the other line. Better don't mention the payment method again. Also such reward is not needed. Either there's such file from MSI or not.

  • Radeon R9 290X 4GB Max Resolution ?

    Hi !
    I recently bought two MSI AMD Radeon R9 290X Gaming OC 4GB.
    It is mentioned in description that Max. Resolution: 2560 x 1600...
    I'm going to use those two cards in crossfire mode on Ultra QHD (3440x1440) monitor - It will works or not ?
    What is the real max resolution for one card as I saw on some web sites it support 4k where is the true ?

    1 (version 1.4a)
    Max Resolution: 3840x2160 @30 Hz-30bpp
    4096x2160 @24 Hz-24bpp
    4K through DP 

  • Radeon R9 290X Lightning High Heat?

    I have a MSI Radeon r9 290x Lightning, and everyone else and all the reviews says its supposed to idle around 30c and then get up to 50c-60c with the fan on auto. Well mine idles at 53c with 0% gpu usage factory clock, and likes to get 80c+ if i leave the fans on auto while gaming. Anyone have any ideas as to whats causing this? Im using official 14.4 catalyst with the new vbios update that an MSI support person sent me to fix the fan issue. I have a 200mm and two 120mm spectre pro's , and an 80mm thermaltake all blasting on the video card.

    Also most important information about this sort of products (GPU, CPU, RAM ): Performance=Heat.
    Around 80-90 is pretty standard for AMD chips. Maybe create your own fan curve to bump up with higher temperature.

  • MSI Radeon R9 280X - Visual bug squares

    Hi,
    Since I got my GPU in February of 2014 I've had multiple visual bugs. Flashing lines in flash video players (e.g. youtube)
    and flashing squares in the screen. The flashing squares look something like this:
    It can happen anywhere on the screen. It also happens with black squares instead of white.
    Some people on the internet say that it can be due to the driver version or the GPU clock frequency. I've tried installing all the drivers I could find on amd.com and the one on msi.com. Both had this problem. I've also played with the GPU clock frequency, but that didn't matter at all.
    I feel now as if I should have sent the card back when I got it as I had this problem within the first week. Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this problem?
    System specs:
    GPU:  MSI Radeon R9 280X GAMING 3G
    CPU:  Intel Core i5 4670K
    Memory:  8GB Ram (Crucial Ballistix Tactical)
    Motherboard: Asus Z87-K
    Current resolution:  2560x1440, 60Hz
    OS:  Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro
    Looking at the specs it seems that I'm running a resolution which is too high for a DVI connection.  MSI card specs shows a maximum of 2048x1536 resolution for the DVI connection. Which seems wierd to me as I'm now running 2560x1440 resolution.
    Could the resolution be the problem? And if so can this be fixed in anyway while still connecting to a DVI monitor? (e.g. GPU -->Mini DisplayPort --> convert --> DVI --> monitor)

    My PSU: Seasonic G-Serie 550 Watt
    The specs say the card only has HDMI 1. Should I try to use the Mini DisplayPort?
    HDMI Connectors 1 (version 1.4a)
      Max Resolution: 3840x2160 @30 Hz-30bpp
      4096x2160 @24 Hz-24bpp
    Mini DisplayPort 2 (version 1.2)
      Max Resolution: 4096x2160 @ 50 Hz

  • MSI Radeon R9 290 not recognized

    Hello people,
    I hope this is the right place to post this. Yesterday I bought components to build a new computer.
    - msi radeon R9 290 Gaming 4GB
    - 8 gb crucial ram
    - 240 gb crucial SSD
    - i5 4440 processor
    - MSI B85M-E33
    - Cooler Master GM-Series G550M
    - Cooler Master N200
    I can't install catalyst center, I can't recognize the card in windows devide manager. Even in the BIOS its says that the PCIE1 express lane is empty.
    So I think that my motherboard is not compatible with the R9 290? Is there anything I can do? Or do I have to buy a new motherboard?( fans of the graphicscard are running)
    Please help me:)
    Thanks!

    There is no reason why the vga shouldn't work with your board although it is not meabt for gaming. Try updating it to the latest bios version using integrated gpu.
    To update use the attached (!) bios archive and the >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
    With the >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< point to the attached and NOT unpacked bios archive (Mode 1: Point to Archive).
    Let the tool prepare an USB stick for flashing and reboot from the stick. Like before after post switch to bad bios and let the tool update bios. It will flash to the version 3.5.

  • Problem with my MSI 290x gaming 4g performance in unigine valley benchmark.

    First im dutch(netherlands) so sorry for my maybe bad english.
    My system is:
    Asus p8z77 v deluxe mb
    intel 3770k cpu
    16gb ram 1866 Corsair
    2x ssd 256 gb OCZ
    MSI 290x gaming
    win7 64bit ultimate.
    When i came home with my card i removed my old 7970 and replaced it with my new card.
    Put some programs up like gpu-z cpu-z realtemp ext.
    Then run Unigine-valley Benchmark with OC tool MSI at 1040 option.
    My cpu at 4.2ghz OC
    Score Unigine valley v1.0: 61.1 fps-score2558-min fps 30.3/max fps 112.8
    Custom settings at 1920-1080 and ultra 8x aa windowed.
    Seems ok result.
    Now to problem i have.
    So next i did (dumb me hehe) i try OC my CPU with All-suit II from ASUS to OC cpu extreme mode which stress test untill stable clock is found.
    Got a crash bluescreen and then after few attemps stable 4.3.
    Then did new benchmark and my score was alot lower and nomatter what i try my 290x did not pass 60fps any more and score dropped to 2100?
    3dmark firestrike gave first time score of 9655 and after my disaster with cpu failed attemp 9200.
    My card is stuck at 60fps max it won't get any higher?
    The GPU-Z also show PCI-E 3.0 X16@ X1 1.1and when i activate render i see it only change to x16 1.1 i never see gen 3.0.
    CPU-Z info motherboard also only pci-express link with x1 and x16
    My questions is how can o solve this problem it seems my motherbaord don't reconize my videocard anymore?
    Also posible that something with the OC attemp CPU broke something?
    I also try change from AUTO to GEN3 in bios but then i get a blackscreen when i boot up it stays backscreen, have to change it switch videocards so i can see my boot again and go into BIOS.
    Im at a lost here, hope one of you know a solution or whats my problem?
    Hope ive supply enough info im bit of a newbie at this sorry for that.
    Thanks in advance.
