Yes , Ever since AMD decided to ignore the black screen issue or just flat out pretend it doesn't exist.
I have a super hard time recommending 290(x)'s , Both the X and non X do it.
Its common , And it hasn't been completely solved and it likely never will be as i suspect its a engineering level problem.
Mine have stopped black screening @ average clocks thank god but i also stopped trying to OC the cards much either and they are both on Full blocks and back-plates which to me just seems wasteful that i cant OC them without issues They will not do 1100+ anymore.
I will have a hard time also recommending their next line but i have a hard time believing they will make the same mistake twice.
Its one thing for them to not recall because of the black screen issues so they don't go broke. its an entirely different thing if the next series cards have the same issues , So i doubt that will happen.
With the Sure amount of RMA's that happened over the issue i think they should have definitely learned their lesson on the subject.
They are just power hungry and attempts by some companies to try and limit the voltage caused issues.
Did you guys ever try increasing the voltage to your cards that had issues? I think I remember that even before the flash, if I bumped up the voltage a bit, the problem would go away.
