Temp cut off 99?? I was reading on the 290x (we have the same card) and it can run 94 but thats about safe levels.

Anyway, how do you run your TC so high? Mine won't let me. I set it to 12000 once and it said I needed a higher LG, which basically kills hash rate.

Soooo I noticed it said "SICK" (R9 290) a few mins ago and thought it was weird that i had never noticed it.
Then a few mins later I saw the temp drop so i checked again and now it says "DEAD".
A full restart of the rig seems to have it back running but I don't know what would have caused it? Anyone seen this before?

Either:

1) Too high overclock.
2) Too high heat.
3) Too high intensity.
4) GPU is dying.

Did you overclocked your GPU ?
This happen to me when the card voltage is too low compared to my overclocking.

It also happens around 2-3 times a month for no reason.


Well this is the config for that particular card:

Code:

 -I 20 \
 -w 512 \
 --gpu-threads 1 \
 --thread-concurrency 32765 \
 --gpu-engine 990 \
 --gpu-memclock 1500 \
 --gpu-powertune 11 \
 --gpu-vddc 1.025 \
 --device 3 \
 --remove-disabled \
 --temp-cutoff 99 \
 --temp-overheat 95 \
 --temp-target 85 \
 --auto-fan \
 --gpu-fan 50-85

It doesnt give any HW errors like this.
It does run hot but all 290's run hot (85c - 90c, although I have seen it go over 95c once before).
It's got it's own psu to it's self.

Hope it's not on the way out, not had it long lol.
