    Broken ASUS R9 290?

    I exchanged the 600w PSU to a 700 psu of the same brand and model (RS-700-PCAR-E3) unfortunately in Mexico they only sell crap =( ... Unfortunatelly I got the same results. Would you think it is time to ask for a replacement card? or should I keep looking for better PSU?

    Broken ASUS R9 290?
