Hello,

after recent Windows 10 pro install I am getting random video card crashes after 10 to 20 minutes while gaming, screen become black for 2-3 seconds after that game window crash or freezes, it seems that video card is rebooting because fan also stops and goes again. It happens with all games that I have tried League of Legends, Overwatch, Rust, Mu Legend, Lineage 2, World Of Warcraft, PUBG

I have tried many driver versions.

Do you have the power limit in Wattman set to +50 (or the highest +value)?

Wattman is viable only for 400+ GPU series, however i am using R9 380 card

I am using MSI afterburner and today I put power limit on +20% (that is max viable for me)

What do you mean 'viable only for 400 GPU series" ? That's not so. It works great on my R9 290 and always has.
