Hello everyone, I was trying to overclock my Asus R9 290 and I messed something up. I have an Intel i7, 6gb of ram, an EVGA x58 SLi mobo, and an 850w power supply. I was in MSI Afterburner and my settings matched this video at this time
except my memory clock was at 1275. The box that says "apply overclocking at system startup" was also checked. I was running Heaven benchmark and 10 seconds into the program, the entire computer shut off. I started it again, and got back to the desktop, reset all my MSI settings, unchecked the "apply overclocking" checkbox, and ran Heaven once more. Once again, the computer shut off.
I don't think my power supply is too weak for the card, and my max temps were around 60C with my Prolimatech air cooler. I also installed all the VRAM heatsinks correctly. The issue now is that when I try to start the computer, the motherboard makes a beeeeeep, beep-beep noise, and all I see is a black screen. The mobo says post error code 7f, or 25, and looking it up says it's a video card related error.
What I want to know is if I shorted something out on the card, or if my old overclock settings are still being applied. I tried doing a CMOS bios reset as well, and I still get the same issue now. I'm back to using my HD5750 card on the same system and the 290 is sitting next to me.
One more thing, the "+100" on the voltage slider in the MSI program is supposedly a 0.1 increase in voltage, which I'm not sure if that busted the card or not. It was running between +90 and +100 for a while and only during the benchmark would it shut off. The AUX voltage was also set to "+6" (setting shown at 10:02 in video).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been trying to research and tackle this for the past night and I have no where else to turn.
