AMD Driver Warning For MSI R9 290 Gaming Cards
Word of warning has come out about installing the 2 latest drivers for those people who are on a MSI R9 290 Gaming card.
Quote:
This is only a problem with the 14.3 and 14.2 beta drivers and only effects MSI's 290 Lightining. If you have one, roll back your drivers to 13.12 or earlier to avoid potential damaged to your card.
Catalyst 14.3: Causes critical malfunction of side fans not functioning and middle fan locked at 30%. Manual override using MSI Afterburner or Catalyst Control Not possible. The result is almost certain damage to the GPU if it is put under continuous, heavy load.
Catalyst 14.2: Causes the auto feature to malfunction, resulting in the side fans not spinning up and increasing RPM when GPU is put under load. The result is inadequate cooling and overheating. Manual override is possible.
Catalyst 13.12: Everything works fine.
