Anybody else having problems with their GPUs?

My R9 Fury X started behaving really strangely. It idles at 65C instead of 27, and as soon as I start mining/playing a game it starts overheating, and after a time the computer just stops.

My rigs are totally fine, but the thing why I think it is related to mining is because I was running 6.0 on my computer when it restarted for the first time (this morning) and since then I can not make it work again.

I tried with a different windows, and I got the same behaviour. Any ideas? (the GPU is still under warranty so I am not worried)

Have you checked to see the fan is spinning, not jammed or broken?

If it is fine, the issue is most likely the thermal paste between the core and heatsink is broken
