I think a lot of people are having this issue with the card. My screen just goes randomly black for 2 seconds and comes back like nothing happened. Happens when I’m playing games and it’s quite annoying. Does anyone know a solution a lot of people are saying it’s drivers based is that true?

Similar thing used to happen on my Sapphire R9 270X back in the day - would black out for a second or two randomly during the day several times, regardless of what was going on on the PC (be it games, videos, or browsing). However, this problem went away the moment I changed my surge protector (power strip), since it had been acting up every once in a while, so I suspect there might be something related to power issues here.
