Hey Claymore, ever since I've started to use the new v8, I've been facing many crashes while using Photoshop or any other such software. It's really annoying and I've tried all the possible intensities as well as other overclocking stuff, but unable to fix it. One thing I've done along the usage of your new version is the driver update. Do you think that it could be happening because of the new driver version of Crimson or is it any known issue of your new miner's version?

Using RX 480's by the way...

You cannot use your rig while mining.
Just let your Machine to Mine only thats it Grin

Uhh, this couldn't be farther from the truth. I use my rig with 2 480's in it all day while mining 24/7. I don't have any issues, other then things that require GPU acceleration, for that i can just stop mining until I'm done.

My main computer has two r9 290x in it. I play overwatch / hearth stone / heroes of the storm while mining. My hashrate drops on primary video card from 245 to 145 but i do not experience any stability issues or glitching in the games. I do sometimes need to reboot once every couple weeks though. Stock clocks / memory, no flags /modifiers in my start.bat except my wallet address and such. On my other machines with r9 380s or 380x 4gb this is not possible, but seems the 290x have horsepower to spare / multitask better.
