I have a XFX Radeon R9 290 (December 2013). Whenever I'm playing a video in MPC-HC the temperature spikes to 85-90C. The spikes are especially noticeable when clicking on random parts of the video timeline rather than playing something constantly.
It looks like the GPU will shutdown Windows when the temp gets around 95C to save itself. To avoid this, I have to set a custom temp profile and set the target temp to 90 and this results in the fan spinning upto 50+ percent fairly often and the noise is annoying when just doing non intensive stuff like watching videos in MPC-HC or youtube.
Is this a known issue with the earlier models of the R9 290 or does everyone have this issue?
