My R9 290 went suspiciously slient after installing Crimson while playing AC Syndicate. After a while it started stuttering. I exited the game and behold, MSI Afterburner reported 94C and only ~400 Mhz on core clock. So i enabled custom fan settings and everything worked fine. Even better actually.
Now my card runs ~80C, fan is a bit louder but its not a concern to me.....exept its lifespan maybe....
Anyways, downloading fix....

Yes, which is why I haven't bought one of their cards for 5 years 🙄
My point is you can kill any card this way, the pcb is a bunch of copper tracks - it's basically a heatsink. Just because the gpu has thermal protection doesn't mean other components are safe. To suggest otherwise goes against the laws of physics.

Ofcourse, AMD were very quick to acknowledge the problem.

My Windows 10 x64 got BSOD while playing Fallout 4 after I updated
to this Hotfix.
After I tried to DDU it and install this Hotfix then I found out that
if I installed 15.11.1 hotfix directly then there won't be AMD Redeon Settings
in Context Menu (right click at desktop) and Video Profile will be blank.
The only way to make it install properly is to install 15.11 first then install
15.11.1 hotfix on top of 15.11.
Anyone else got the same issue with me?

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=legacy3&os=Windows+7+-+64 But still seems like it can use the Crimson software.
Of course, if you did install the crimson software, then yeah. I'd wholly recommend getting the hotfix..
Well, you don't " need " to. But if I'm not wrong, your card is now classified as Legacy by AMD. gulash
I already installed crimson. But on the hotfix supported card list is from hd 7... series cards. Confusing???
