I bought Asus R9 290 Direct CU II and FSP Aurum 92+ 650W.... and installed last night.
when i tested it out with BF3... the computer BSOD twice...
What could possibly be wrong?
1. later today will do a clean installation of driver.
2. Whatelse ???
R9 going for $208

good buy
What cpu cooler u using? it could be that your cpu heats up and auto shut down... Check with hwmonitor.
Also, do some stress test on ur gpu like heaven benchmark and monitor its temp.
Lastly, google for "How to complete remove AMD drivers OCN" guide. Follow it to completely remove all drivers and reinstall new 1.
i'm using stock cooler for my i5 750... previous experience gaming on BF 3 with 5770 doesn't seem having problem with that...
Does it mean after upgrading the GPU... CPU becomes a bottleneck and overstressed?
Do a stress test on ur gpu and see if ur cpu heats up to 100 degC or not..
Is ur intel stock cooler very noisy when gaming? if so, it means the fan is at max speed.
Suggest u get a cheap alternative bah. Deepcool gammaxx 200/300 would do.
shadow84, will upgrading the CPU benefit of having lower temp when gaming? as new CPU can cope with more I/O...
Was intend to wait for Broadwell...
thanks for advise...
New cpu also hot... I tried gaming with stock cooler, also gave me 85 deg C...

Shadow84, what would you suggest?
Air cool: Cooler Master 212X
Liquid cool: Corsair H100i or Cooler Master Nepton 280L
sorry for copying you...
will the liquid cool really effective... I'm using Lankool K58 do have vent on the top side casing...
